Coordinate with other teams to accomplish your work daily
Help define forward-looking improvements to the CUDA APIs and programming model
Write effective, maintainable, and well-tested kernel and userspace code
Develop code for multiple Linux operating systems
What we need to see:
BS or MS degree in Computer Science, Electrical Engineering or related field (or equivalent experience)
Strong C programming skills
Minimum of 10+ years of related development experience
Experience working with large codebases
Background with operating system interfaces for threads, process control, and virtual memory
Experience writing and debugging multithreaded programs
