Lead Rendering Development Engineer.

AMD Advanced Rendering and Engineering is a group of cross-disciplinary teams working at the intersection of graphics research and productization. Their mission is to create cutting-edge software to equip developers and publishers with the tools they need to build immersive, high-performance games optimized for AMD hardware.

• Minimum of 5 years full-time experience writing efficient, high-level shader code (HLSL SM6, GLSL, Slang, etc) and modern C++ (17 and up).
• Strong understanding of low-level machine learning concepts and design patterns including automatic differentiation, computational graphs, tensor broadcasting, etc.
• Knowledge of real-time rendering and graphics algorithms.
• Excellent written and verbal English skills.
• Willingness to occasionally travel, both domestically and internationally.

Nice to have:

• Knowledge of GPU ISAs, especially AMD RDNA and modern game console architectures.
• Experience working with modern machine learning libraries (PyTorch, TensorFlow, etc.).
• Knowledge of physically based rendering algorithms (sampling and shading, light transport, etc.).
• Experience with modern graphics APIs such as DirectX 12 or Vulkan.
• Applied mathematics background in fields such as linear algebra, differential calculus, stochastic optimization, and statistical analysis.
• PhD, Bachelor, or Master of Science degree with emphasis in computer science, computer engineering, or applied mathematics with relevant experience preferred.

• Work closely with research engineers to transform proof-of-concept prototypes into mature products at a very high level of quality.
• Collaborate with external game development partners to integrate these technologies into their titles.
• Optimize, extend, package and document high-level compute shader and C++ code.
