Deep Learning Performance Architect - Intern - 2026

Descripción del puesto:

NVIDIA is developing processor and system architectures that accelerate deep learning and high-performance computing applications. We are looking for an intern deep learning system performance architect to join our AI performance modelling, analysis and optimization efforts. In this position, you will have a chance to work on DL performance modelling, analysis, and optimization on state-of-the-art hardware architectures for various LLM workloads. You will make your contributions to our dynamic technology focused company.

What you'll be doing:
* Analyze state of the art DL networks (LLM etc.), identify and prototype performance opportunities to influence SW and Architecture team for NVIDIA's current and next gen inference products.
* Develop analytical models for the state of the art deep learning networks and algorithm to innovate processor and system architectures design for performance and efficiency.
* Specify hardware/software configurations and metrics to analyze performance, power, and accuracy in existing and future uni-processor and multiprocessor configurations.
* Collaborate across the company to guide the direction of next-gen deep learning HW/SW by working with architecture, software, and product teams.

What we need to see:
* BS or higher degree in a relevant technical field (CS, EE, CE, Math, etc.).
* Strong programming skills in Python, C, C++.
* Strong background in computer architecture.
* Experience with performance modeling, architecture simulation, profiling, and analysis.
* Prior experience with LLM or generative AI algorithms.

Ways to stand out from the crowd:
* GPU Computing and parallel programming models such as CUDA and OpenCL.
* Architecture of or workload analysis on other deep learning accelerators.
* Deep neural network training, inference and optimization in leading frameworks (e.g. Pytorch, TensorRT-LLM, vLLM, etc.).
* Open-source AI compilers (OpenAI Triton, MLIR, TVM, XLA, etc.).
