    Improve the scalability and usability of existing performance tools
    Collaborate with customers and tech leads to identify workflow performance tooling gaps in AV development cycle
    Develop proof-of-concept solutions to assess viability of proposed solution
    Help educate AV Engineers on available performance tools
    Build a multi quarter roadmap for Performance tools

    What you must have:

    5+ years of relevant industry experience

    Demonstrated experience in writing production quality Python and C++ code

    Experience in building production-ready and easy-to-use performance tools

    Understanding of performance considerations for a heterogeneous compute system running a real time load

    Comfortable in good software development practices - coding, debugging, testing, code reviewing

    Experience working in cross-functional projects and communicating with customers

    Bonus Points

    MS or PhD in CS, or related technical field or equivalent experience

    Familiarity with CPU/GPU performance tracing libraries.

    Familiarity with the AV SW Stack (behavior, performance, and implementation)

    Experience with computer architecture and HW accelerators

    Experience with GPUs and domain specific accelerator SW stacks

    Experience using/building usable wrappers around vendor perf tools

    Familiarity with Typescript/Javascript

    The salary range for this position is $193, ,000. Compensation will vary depending on location, job-related knowledge, skills, and experience. You may also be offered a bonus, restricted stock units, and benefits. These ranges are subject to change.
