We are looking to hire a CPU Compiler Engineer for an exciting and fun role at NVIDIA. We craft outstanding compilers that realise the potential of NVIDIA's CPUs designed for the world's largest AI and HPC workloads: https://www.nvidia.com/en-in/data-center/grace-cpu/. Our compiler organisation makes its mark on every CPU, GPU, DPU and SoC product that NVIDIA builds. Would you like to be part of this outstanding organisation?

We need you to design, develop and help improve the upstream GNU Toolchain for NVIDIA's CPUs. These compilers are key for the performance of AI, HPC and other performance critical software deployed on NVIDIA Data Centres, on the cloud and at super computing centres around the world. In this role you will solve critical problems working alongside an outstanding engineering team with vision in Compiler technology and systems software, doing what you enjoy! You will also be collaborating with the relevant upstream projects and improving the state of the art If this sounds like a fun challenge, we would be delighted to hear from you!!

What you will be doing:

  • Work with a geographically distributed partner organisation to understand, modify and improve CPU Compiler SW at NVIDIA.

  • Contribute new features and optimisation techniques targeting NVIDIA Grace CPUs engaging with upstream and open source communities.

  • Develop compiler SW that is optimised for performance.

  • Be part of a team that is at the centre of AI, HPC and data centre technologies.

  • Help in the development of next generation CPU micro-architecture.

What we need to see:

  • BS or MS degree in Computer Science, Computer Engineering, or related field or equivalent experience

  • More than 12 years of experience with compiler development in a production environment.

  • Knowledge of Language Front-Ends or Compiler optimisation techniques and code generation modules.

  • Strong hands-on C++ programming skills

  • Excellent verbal and written communications skills

Ways to stand out from the crowd:

  • Familiarity with CPU architectures such as Arm Architecture (AArch32, AArch64), RISC-V, x86_64, PowerPC or DSPs and engaging with pre-silicon compiler and toolchain contributions.

  • A track record of working with industry standard compiler infrastructure such as GNU Toolchain and familiarity with LLVM

  • Knowledge of AI algorithms, scientific HPC applications and related code optimisations.

  • Meaningful contributions to free software and open source compiler communities.

With highly competitive salaries and a comprehensive benefits package, NVIDIA is widely considered to be one of the technology world’s most desirable employers. We have some of the most innovative and talented people on the planet working for us and, due to unprecedented growth, our world-class engineering teams are expanding fast.

Where to Advertise Machine Learning Jobs in the UK (2026 Guide)

Advertising machine learning jobs in the UK requires a different approach to most technical hiring. The candidate pool is small, highly specialised and in demand across AI labs, financial services, healthcare, autonomous systems and consumer technology simultaneously. Machine learning engineers and researchers move between roles through professional networks, conference communities and specialist platforms — not general job boards where ML roles compete with unrelated software engineering positions for the same audience. This guide, published by MachineLearningJobs.co.uk, covers where to advertise machine learning roles in the UK in 2026, how the main platforms compare, what employers should expect to pay, and what the data says about hiring across different role types.

New Machine Learning Employers to Watch in 2026: UK and Global Companies Driving ML Innovation

Machine learning (ML) has transitioned from a specialised field into a core business capability. In 2026, organisations across healthcare, finance, robotics, autonomous systems, natural language processing, and analytics are expanding their machine learning teams to build scalable intelligent products and services. For professionals exploring opportunities on www.MachineLearningJobs.co.uk , understanding the companies that are scaling, winning investment, or securing high‑impact contracts is crucial. This article highlights the new and high‑growth machine learning employers to watch in 2026, focusing on UK innovators, international firms with significant UK presence, and global platforms investing in machine learning talent locally.

How Many Machine Learning Tools Do You Need to Know to Get a Machine Learning Job?

Machine learning is one of the most exciting and rapidly growing areas of tech. But for job seekers it can also feel like a maze of tools, frameworks and platforms. One job advert wants TensorFlow and Keras. Another mentions PyTorch, scikit-learn and Spark. A third lists Mlflow, Docker, Kubernetes and more. With so many names out there, it’s easy to fall into the trap of thinking you must learn everything just to be competitive. Here’s the honest truth most machine learning hiring managers won’t say out loud: 👉 They don’t hire you because you know every tool. They hire you because you can solve real problems with the tools you know. Tools are important — no doubt — but context, judgement and outcomes matter far more. So how many machine learning tools do you actually need to know to get a job? For most job seekers, the real number is far smaller than you think — and more logically grouped. This guide breaks down exactly what employers expect, which tools are core, which are role-specific, and how to structure your learning for real career results.
