About NVIDIA & This Role
At NVIDIA, we’ve shaped the future of visual computing for two decades—from inventions like the GPU to its vital role in AI, 3D gaming, healthcare, and scientific discovery. We’re now exploring the next frontier of visual computing and AI, where path tracing, neural graphics, and advanced AI intersect with real-time experiences.
We’re looking for a Principal Developer Technology Engineer to lead innovation in advanced rendering, path tracing, neural graphics, and AI-driven gaming technologies—collaborating with AAA-developer partners worldwide to push the boundaries of performance, fluidity, and visual fidelity.
What You’ll Be Doing
- Partner with leading AAA developers to optimize GPU and system performance, ensuring seamless, high-fidelity gameplay with path traced neural rendering and complex AI-driven behaviors.
- Develop, profile, optimize, and fine-tune neural rendering algorithms and AI models to maximize computational efficiency for real-time applications.
- Engage with NVIDIA’s architecture and driver teams, ensuring the best possible experience on current GPU hardware and guiding features for next-generation designs.
- Explore cutting-edge GPU technologies—design new rendering or computational techniques, develop technical demos, publish whitepapers, and present research at worldwide conferences.
Reasons to use Rodeo
Start with a chat, not a search bar
Grad scheme, placement, apprenticeship? Not sure what you want yet — that's fine. Your agent talks it through with you and turns "I have no idea" into a shortlist.
It searches the market for you
Every day your agent scans the market matching roles against what actually matters to you, not just keywords on a CV.
Only hits
No noise. No "maybe this fits." Just roles with a clear explanation of why they're right — and where to focus when applying.
Requirements
A candidate must demonstrate:
-
Education:
- Masters degree in Computer Science, Computer Engineering, or a related computationally intensive field. (Or equivalent experience.)
-
Experience:
- At least 15+ years of relevant industry or research experience.
-
Technical Proficiency:
- Deep expertise in C++, with a strong foundation in software engineering, debugging, and optimization.
- Exemplary mathematics skills, including linear algebra and calculus, for modeling performance and solving computational challenges.
- Masters real-time graphics and GPU technologies, including:
- Shader programming
- Rendering algorithms (lighting techniques such as ray/punktracing)
- Shading APIs such as DirectX or Vulkan.
- Hands-on experience with low-level optimizations and in-depth understanding of both CPU and GPU architectures.
- Adequate grasp of AI foundational concepts, with proving equivalent ability to design applications—rather than merely applying existing AI tools.
