What You’ll be doing:

1. Apply AI techniques to real-time 3D rendering, computer games, and film production pipelines. Develop tools and products for real-time deep learning model development, PC games, graphics, and educational applications.
2. Optimize Deep Learning models' size and performance to enable their execution in a real-time environment and develop corresponding tools and frameworks.
3. Improve realism and the immersive qualities of PC games including intelligent characters, behavior of crowds and traffic, and human-machine interface problems.
4. Develop prototypes and perform experiments for new technology ideas, as well as write production-grade code for technology release to production.

What We Need To See:

1. BS degree (or equivalent experience) with 5+ years of experience in computer science, electrical engineering, or a related field.
2. C++ and Python proficiency.
3. Experience with Deep Learning Frameworks such as PyTorch or TensorFlow.
4. Good understanding of 3D rendering pipeline and computer graphics fundamentals.
5. Good understanding of transformers, LLMs, generative models, or text-to-speech models.
6. Willingness to wear multiple hats, learn quickly and adapt based on technology needs of projects.

Ways To Stand Out From The Crowd:

1. Experience with game engines like Unreal Engine 5, Unity, etc.
2. Recent experience with DL performance optimization and shown understanding of the subject.
3. Experience with CUDA (or parallel programming) and performance-centric deep learning.
4. Deep understanding of 3D graphics and modern GPU architectures.
5. Contributing to a popular open-source project or working on an interesting side project.
