  • Publish original research and speak at conferences and events.

Requirements:

  • A Ph.D. in CE/CS/EE or equivalent experience with a strong background.
  • 5+ years of research work experience in computer architecture, operating systems, system administration, compilers, and/or HPC.
  • Demonstrated expertise in one specific area of the above topics with the ability to become the go-to resource within a team from differing backgrounds.
  • Experience with experimental computer architecture research, software infrastructure development and evaluation.
  • A track record of well-documented open-source software release.
  • Experience with C, C++, CUDA, Python, and scripting languages. MPI and NACL would be a plus.
  • Strong interpersonal skills are needed and being a creative and dynamic presenter is a huge advantage.
  • Ability to work with emerging workloads such as recommender systems, graph analytics, and data frames.

The base salary will be determined based on your location, experience, and other objective job-related factors. The expected base salary ranges for this position are: 192,000 USD – 304,750 USD for Level 4; and 224,000 USD – 356,500 USD for Level 5. You will also be eligible for equity and benefits.
