Compiler Performance Engineer

About the role

We are looking for a Compiler Performance Engineer to make Falcon generate even faster code. This is not a compiler front end role and not a compiler built from scratch: the compiler exists, runs in production at large enterprises, and your job is to find where the generated code is slower than it should be and fix it in the optimizer and code generator.

What you'll do

• Join a distributed team of compiler experts and work on real workloads with direct, measurable impact on customer performance
• Analyze performance of Java benchmarks and customer workloads, find gaps in generated code and trace them to their root cause in the compiler
• Implement and improve optimizations in Falcon's middle end and back end: inlining, loop optimizations, vectorization, redundancy elimination
• Improve code generation for x86_64 and AArch64
• Write tests and benchmarks that prove the improvement and protect it from regressions

What you need

• 2–5 yrs of experience
• Java
• C++
• Scala
• Kotlin
• M.Sc or PhD
