As a member of our team in NVIDIA's NVHPC compilers & tools group, you will analyze and run High Performance Computing (HPC) applications on HPC servers and systems to gain insight into the performance characteristics of these applications. The applications you'll work with range from small synthetic benchmarks that use a single core to full applications that utilize all of the resources on distributed-memory systems with heterogeneous compute nodes including CPUs, GPUs and many-core processors. In this role you will analyze these applications and identify optimization opportunities for compiler development teams and application engineering teams.
