THE ROLE:

Do you want to validate multi node GPU communication HW/FW and SW libraries to enable high performance computing and machine learning workloads? AMD is searching for talented and motivated engineers to help with this complex task.

THE PERSON:

You are accustomed to working in a dynamic, geographically distributed agile team, where partnership and collaboration are paramount. You possess excellent written and verbal communication skills, strong attention to detail, and the ability to express your work in a clear, cohesive fashion. You are results-oriented and accustomed to tight deadlines and changing priorities. Most importantly, you are constantly thinking of ways to improve performance of software and hardware.

KEY RESPONSIBILITIES:

• Become the liaison between the AMD engineers that work at the GPU, CPU and NIC components to help integrate solutions at the server-level, rack-level and cluster-level.
• Support validation of servers with AMD CPU/GPU/NICs and AMD's libraries such as RCCL
• Design, implement, and test networking features for multi-GPU and multi-node communication libraries, both scale-up and scale-out
• Benchmark, profile and optimize code to maximize throughput on single-GPU, multi-GPU and clustered systems
• Deploy the libraries on large clusters and debug complex system level issues that could span across different layers of the software stack: particularly NIC kernel driver and GPU kernel drivers.

PREFERRED EXPERIENCE:

• Strong background developing applications and libraries in C, C++, and Python
• Experience working with RoCE(RDMA over Converge Ethernet), Libfabric and InfiniBand among others
• Experience working with Linux Kerner, Device drivers and network drivers.
• Experience designing and building GPU Networks for Large Scale Clusters
• Experience in collective communication libraries: MPI, RCCL, SHMEM and optimization to scale collective communication to scale distributed systems.
• In-depth knowledge of best practices in software development, including testing, profiling, debugging, documentation, version control, issue tracking, and planning
• Contributions to open-source libraries and applications

NICE TO HAVE:

• GPU software development using HIP, CUDA, or OpenCL
• Understanding of CPU, GPU and NIC architecture and low-level optimization techniques including assembly programming and/or vectorization

ACADEMIC CREDENTIALS:

• B.Sc. or B.Eng. degree in Computer Science, Software Engineering, Electrical Engineering, or equivalent
• Advanced degrees, such as M.Sc., M.Eng., Ph.D. are preferred.

Location:

• Austin, TX
