preferred skill
s. 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

- Experience identifying GPU bottlenecks using profiling tools, analyzing frame timing, shader occupancy, memory

bandwidth, overdraw, synchronization stalls, and CPU/GPU overlap.

Bachelor's degree in Applied Mathematics, Computer Science, Computer Engineering, Electrical Engineering, Software Engineering, or related field and 2+ years of Software Engineering, Hardware Engineering, Systems Engineering, Electrical Engineering, Game Rendering, or related work experience.

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.
