CUDA Kernel Optimization Specialist - AI Trainer

Role Overview

Analyze and optimize GPU kernels for performance, efficiency, and hardware utilization. Use profiler metrics to guide kernel improvements. Review GPU kernel implementations to identify bottlenecks without needing extensive algorithmic background.

What You Will Do

Write, modify, and reason about C++17, Python, and GPU programming code. Apply CUDA, HIP, and shader programming expertise to improve performance outcomes. Document optimization decisions clearly.

Why It Might Be a Fit

Must have at least 1 year of professional or graduate-level research experience with GPUs. Strong understanding of GPU profiler performance metrics for kernel optimization. Ability to optimize GPU kernels without deep prior context on every algorithm.

Requirements

• Available to work at least 20 hrs/wk.
• Fluent in core C++ features through C++17.
• Working knowledge of Python and Git.
• Fluent in at least one GPU programming model like CUDA, HIP, Slang, HLSL, or GLSL.
• At least 1 year of professional or graduate-level research experience with GPUs.
• Strong understanding of GPU profiler performance metrics for kernel optimization.
• Ability to optimize GPU kernels without deep prior context on every algorithm.
