## Kernel Developer
#### About the Role
We are looking for a C/C++ engineer to design and optimize **high-performance compute kernels for AI accelerators**.
This is **not Linux kernel development** , and it does not involve drivers, operating systems, or kernel modules.
In this context, “kernels” refer to **user-space compute kernels for tensor operations used in deep learning workloads**.
You will work at the lowest level of AI performance engineering — where software meets specialized hardware.
#### Responsibilities
- Design and implement high-performance compute (operator) kernels in C/C++
- Develop core tensor operations
- Optimize performance for AI accelerators (latency, throughput, and efficiency)
- Apply low-level optimization techniques
- Profile, benchmark, and tune kernels to eliminate performance bottlenecks
- Contribute to internal libraries and runtime systems for AI workloads
#### Requirements
- Strong proficiency in C/C++
- Experience with performance-critical software development
- Strong understanding of low-level optimization techniques
- Understanding of CPU/GPU or accelerator architecture fundamentals
- Ability to analyze and debug complex systems
- Experience working with large, complex codebases
- Strong communication and teamwork skills
#### Nice to Have
- Experience with GPU kernel programming (CUDA / ROCm / OpenCL)
- Experience with Triton or similar kernel programming frameworks
- Knowledge of instruction set architectures (ISA)
- Familiarity with compiler technologies (e.g., LLVM-based stacks)
- Experience with distributed communication frameworks (NCCL, MPI, libfabric)
- Understanding of deep learning models
#### What We Offer
- Highly competitive salary, employment contract (Umowa o Pracę), and a comprehensive benefits package, including Medicover healthcare coverage.
- Work on the performance-critical compute layer for next-generation AI accelerators
- Direct impact on deep learning model efficiency and latency
- Collaboration with experts in hardware, compilers, and systems
- Challenging low-level performance engineering problems at the hardware–software boundary
