By joining us, you’ll contribute to an open ecosystem that drives performance, scalability, and portability across diverse architectures—empowering breakthroughs in AI, HPC, and beyond.
If you’re passionate about transforming how the world computes and want to work on technology that truly matters, this is your opportunity to make an impact.
The Intel Compiler Engineering Team is a high‑performing team responsible for the creation of the industry‑leading Intel C/C++/DPC++ and Fortran Compilers, and is a leader in LLVM.org, the basis of our compiler products. We are continually pushing the boundaries of compiler technology in support of providing maximally useful and performant compilers for all of Intel’s processor platforms, both CPU and GPUs.
Position OverviewWe’re hiring a Senior Compiler Architect to own the runtime architecture for Intel’s open‑source compiler stack (CPU + GPU/accelerators). You will set technical direction, design and evolve language runtimes, and lead delivery of new features that enable portable, high‑performance offload. You’ll drive upstream collaboration with LLVM.org, SYCL, and OpenMP, lead development of novel optimization techniques for accelerated workloads. You will define how our runtime integrates with the broader ecosystem, and ensure rock‑solid performance, reliability, and developer experience from silicon to software.
This role is perfect for individuals who thrive on deep systems work, community leadership, and measurable impact on AI and HPC workloads.
- BS with 8+ OR MS with 6+ OR PhD with 4+ years of experience with a degree in Computer Science or related field with focus on compiler development tools.
- 5+ years of hands‑on compiler development experience with a demonstrated history of technical contributions to LLVM.org (commit history, patches, reviews).
- 5+ years of experience with accelerated computing and parallel programming models working with GPU architecture.
- 5+ years of experience in compiler or application performance tuning to achieve optimal runtime and application throughput.
- Hardware knowledge: understanding of modern CPU, GPU, and accelerator architecture.
- Ability to analyze and optimize language runtimes, scheduling, and memory models to achieve industry‑leading runtime and application performance across heterogeneous architectures (CPU, GPU, and accelerators).
- Expert‑level C/C++ with deep understanding of systems programming.
- Patents or significant technical innovations in compiler technology.
- Demonstrated cross‑industry collaboration on language standards and specifications.
