Top 5 Required Skills (These are not preferred skills. If the candidate does not have these required skills, they will be rejected completely)   

 

 1. Vulkan Graphics Programming

     - Strong experience with Vulkan render pipelines, compute shaders, synchronization, descriptor sets, memory

       barriers, and GPU-driven rendering.

 2. Modern C++ Performance Engineering

     - Expert-level C++ for real-time systems, memory management, multithreading, SIMD-friendly data layouts, and low-

       latency rendering code.

 3. Mobile GPU Optimization

     - Deep understanding of mobile GPU architectures, especially tile-based rendering, bandwidth limits, cache

       behavior, thermal constraints, and power/performance tradeoffs.

 4. GPU Compute and Shader Optimization

     - Ability to optimize GLSL/SPIR-V compute and graphics shaders, including sorting, culling, binning, blending,

       prefix sums, compaction, and parallel data processing.

 5. Graphics Performance Profiling and Debugging

Principal Duties and Responsibilities:

•  Applies Graphics knowledge and experience to architect, design, implement, and verify the structure and performance of GPU hardware, drivers, features, applications, and tools.

•  Writes code for features, drivers, and APIs using different languages (e.G., C, C++, perl, python) and ensures code will perform effectively on different platforms.

•  Maintains comprehensive pre- and post-silicon tests using tools and methods in different environments (e.G., simulation, emulation, on-device) to verify performance and identify issues.

•  Identifies deficiencies in designs and works with team members to develop solutions to improve designs.

•  Collaborates with teams and external stakeholders to expose new features and functionality that align with needs and goals for implementation and customization.

•  Writes detailed design documentation and feature descriptions for projects to guide developers and/or customers to use or implement software.

Level of Responsibility:

•   Works under supervision.
•   Decision-making may affect work beyond immediate work group.
•   Requires verbal and written communication skills to convey information. May require basic negotiation, influence, tact, etc. 
•   Has a moderate amount of influence over key organizational decisions.
•   Tasks require multiple steps which can be performed in various orders;some planning, problem-solving, and prioritization must occur to complete the tasks effectively.
