Silicon Validation Software Engineer - GPU IP Validation and Integration
Location: Waltham, Massachusetts, United States Description
You will be writing shaders that stress the GPU and cause high bandwidth traffic to and from the memory subsystem. You will apply your deep understanding of GPU architecture to write tests that stress the pipeline and exercise the interaction between the GPU and different IP blocks on the SoC. You will use the necessary driver and firmware APIs to compile shaders and perform operations to move data around in the SoC using GPU threads/SIMD groups. You will understand the different levels of GPU memory hierarchy (Shared, Global, etc.) and debug SoC software and hardware issues, performing system-level validation. Minimum Qualifications
A minimum of a bachelor's degree in a relevant field and at least 10 years of relevant industry experience in silicon validation software engineering or a related field. Preferred Qualifications
Experience with Graphics, OpenGL, and CUDA. Understanding of the GPU pipeline and graphics theory. Knowledge of system and SoC architectures. Experience with image processing, memory hierarchies, and compilers. Experience implementing and running ML/LLM workloads for GPU characterization. Proficiency in Python and GNU Make. Deep understanding of compute systems, operating systems, and computer architecture. Passion for writing code close to hardware and debugging. In-depth knowledge and experience in SoC system-level validation and debugging of SoC software and hardware issues. Note: The salary range for this role is between $162,500 and $286,400, depending on skills, qualifications, experience, and location. Apple offers comprehensive benefits, stock programs, and educational reimbursement. This role may be eligible for bonuses, commissions, and relocation assistance. Apple is an equal opportunity employer committed to inclusion and diversity, promoting equal opportunity regardless of race, color, religion, sex, sexual orientation, gender identity, national origin, disability, Veteran status, or other protected characteristics.
