Compiler Engineer - LLVM / C/C++ / CPU
About the role
Our client, a leading global technology company, is looking for a proactive Compiler Engineer to join its compiler and runtime libraries team, working with colleagues across the UK and international research hubs.
You will tackle complex real-world compute challenges in server, HPC and AI domains. You will analyse binary performance, apply cutting-edge compiler passes, resolve deep toolchain issues and collaborate in a multicultural team to deliver high-impact software, with opportunities to contribute your work back to leading open-source projects.
What you will be doing:
- Extending and enhancing LLVM-based compilers to support emerging hardware and instruction set features
- Architecting and implementing advanced optimisation passes for next-generation xPU architectures
- Exploring and integrating AI/ML techniques to drive intelligent, auto-tuning compiler optimisations
- Rigorously analysing the efficiency and performance of compiler-generated machine code
- Partnering directly with hardware co-design and xPU architecture teams to influence future silicon and software design
