Senior Software Engineer Runtime

Skills

About the Role

You will develop the low-level runtime stack for NPU hardware, including DMA I/O, execution scheduling, asynchronous pipelines, multi-node communication, and embedded firmware. You will profile and tune the complete runtime stack to remove bottlenecks in inference workloads.

Requirements

• BS degree in Computer Science, Engineering, or a related field, or equivalent practical experience
• 5+ years of relevant systems-programming experience using Rust, C, or C++
• Understanding of computer architecture, memory hierarchy, cache coherency, operating systems, DMA, interrupts, and MMIO
• Strong communication skills and ability to gather requirements and drive technical alignment
• Expertise in low-latency runtime systems, embedded firmware development, or high-performance I/O preferred
• Experience with asynchronous execution models and scheduling systems preferred
• Experience with DMA engines, scatter-gather I/O, or zero-copy data transfer preferred
• Experience developing embedded firmware for ARM-based processors preferred
• Familiarity with RDMA and high-performance networking preferred
• Experience with CUDA runtime internals preferred
• Experience with Linux kernel modules, eBPF, perf, or ftrace preferred
• Understanding of deep learning inference workloads preferred
• Experience profiling and tuning system software on accelerator or SoC platforms preferred

Responsibilities

• Develop low-level runtime software for DMA-based I/O and kernel execution scheduling
• Build and optimize asynchronous execution pipelines
• Enable multi-node inference through communication primitives and RDMA-based data transfer
• Develop embedded firmware for the NPU integrated ARM core
• Profile and tune system-level performance across the runtime stack
