GPU Compiler Engineer

We’re supporting a large, globally established technology company that is building out a new compiler team in Cambridge. This is a senior-level role working on production compiler technology that ships at global scale, tightly integrated with next-generation silicon.
While the team works closely with GPU and accelerator hardware, this role is fundamentally backend-compiler focused. Prior GPU experience is not required — strong compiler
fundamentals and LLVM backend experience are the key requirements.
If you enjoy working close to hardware, solving performance-critical problems, and having real influence over low-level architecture decisions, this is a standout opportunity.
Staff Compiler Engineer responsibilities
Designing and implementing LLVM backend compiler features
Working on instruction selection, scheduling, register allocation, and code generation
Optimising generated code for performance, power efficiency, and correctness
Collaborating closely with hardware architects and systems engineers
Building and maintaining compiler tests, benchmarks, and validation infrastructure
Debugging complex low-level issues across compiler and hardware boundaries
Staff Compiler Engineer background
Strong experience in compiler development, ideally with LLVM
Solid C/C++ and systems-level programming skills
Good understanding of computer architecture and low-level performance concepts
Experience working on performance-critical or hardware-adjacent software
This will be an onsite role based in Cambridge and Visa and relocation support is available for the right candidate.
