Full Job Description

Today, we’re tapping into the unlimited potential of AI to define the next era of computing. An era in which our GPU acts as the brains of computers, robots, and self-driving cars that can understand the world. Doing what’s never been done before takes vision, innovation, and the world’s best talent. As an NVIDIAN, you’ll be immersed in a diverse, supportive environment where everyone is inspired to do their best work. Come join the team and see how you can make a lasting impact on the world. We are now looking for a GPU Performance Engineer for Neural Reconstruction! NVIDIA is building the future of computer graphics, simulation, robotics, and embodied AI. Neural reconstruction and Gaussian Splatting are changing how 3D worlds are collected, represented, optimized, and rendered. These workloads push the limits of GPU computing, differentiable rendering, computer vision, and production ML systems. In this role, you will help make neural reconstruction faster, more scalable, and more reliable. You will work across PyTorch, CUDA, C++, and GPU profiling to optimize training and rendering workflows used in sophisticated 3D reconstruction systems. The ideal candidate enjoys working close to the hardware while understanding the ML and 3D vision goals behind the system. **What You 'll Be Doing:** * Profile end-to-end neural reconstruction workflows and identify bottlenecks across data loading, initialization, training, rendering, evaluation, and export. * Improve CUDA and PyTorch performance for Gaussian Splatting and neural reconstruction workloads, including camera/lidar data, multiview batching, large-scene rendering, and memory-sensitive training paths. * Analyze GPU performance using tools such as Nsight Systems, Nsight Compute, NVTX, PyTorch Profiler, CUDA events, and benchmark dashboards. * Optimize sparse and irregular rendering workloads, including tile-level masking/culling, sparse gradients, batching, and multi-GPU execution. * Translate high-impact Python, NumP
