Senior HPC Performance Engineer — NVIDIA (ufficio Zurich)

Role overview

As a member of our team in NVIDIA's NVHPC compilers & tools group, you will analyze and run High Performance Computing (HPC) applications on HPC servers and systems to gain insight into the performance characteristics of these applications. The applications you'll work with range from small synthetic benchmarks that use a single core to full applications that utilize all of the resources on distributed-memory systems with heterogeneous compute nodes including CPUs, GPUs and many-core processors. In this role you will analyze these applications and identify optimization opportunities for compiler development teams and application engineering teams.

• Assist customers GPU accelerate HPC applications.

• Analyze High Performance Computing(HPC) applications to better understand their performance characteristics.

• Provide advise and drive compiler and applications engineering development teams based on the analysis of these HPC applications.

• BS/MS or equivalent experience in Computer Science or related engineering field.

• Solid understanding of Fortran/C/C++, as well as programming techniques, especially for parallel architectures; preferably for compilers

• Experience with OpenACC, OpenMP, MPI, and CUDA.

• Strong skills in performance analysis and tuning, as well as a broad understanding of parallel applications development tools and runtime environments.

• Strong mathematical fundamentals, including linear algebra and numerical methods.

• Understand performance considerations, tradeoffs and impact.
