As a member of our team in NVIDIA's NVHPC compilers & tools group, you will analyze and run High Performance Computing (HPC) applications on HPC servers and systems to gain insight into the performance characteristics of these applications. The applications you'll work with range from small synthetic benchmarks that use a single core to full applications that utilize all of the resources on distributed-memory systems with heterogeneous compute nodes including CPUs, GPUs and many-core processors. In this role you will analyze these applications and identify optimization opportunities for compiler development teams and application engineering teams.

What you’ll be doing:

  • Assist customers GPU accelerate HPC applications.

  • Analyze High Performance Computing(HPC) applications to better understand their performance characteristics.

  • Provide advise and drive compiler and applications engineering development teams based on the analysis of these HPC applications.

What we need to see:

  • BS/MS or equivalent experience in Computer Science or related engineering field.

  • 8+ Years of programming experience.

  • Solid understanding of Fortran/C/C++, as well as programming techniques, especially for parallel architectures; preferably for compilers

  • Experience with OpenACC, OpenMP, MPI, and CUDA.

  • Strong skills in performance analysis and tuning, as well as a broad understanding of parallel applications development tools and runtime environments.

  • Strong mathematical fundamentals, including linear algebra and numerical methods.

  • Understand performance considerations, tradeoffs and impact.

  • Expert interpersonal skills, logical approach to problem solving, good time management and task prioritization skills. Excellent written and verbal communication skills.

  • Strong communication skills are required along with the ability to work in a dynamic product oriented team.

  • Experience is leading and/or management projects is a plus.

Ways to stand out from the crowd:

  • You have a deep understanding of machine architectures and micro-architectures.

  • Experience with debugging and porting as well as assembly language programming is a significant advantage.

NVIDIA is widely considered to be one of the technology world’s most desirable employers with competitive salaries and a generous benefits package. We have some of the most forward-thinking and hardworking people in the world working for us. Our goal is to craft an environment where we can do our life's best work. If you're creative, autonomous and love a challenge, we want to hear from you!

NVIDIA's invention of the GPU revolutionized parallel computing. Our GPUs are being used in many of the largest high-performance computing projects around the world, solving real world problems. Our products are used to build and parallelize the most meaningful scientific applications for weather modeling, climatology, fluid dynamics and defense. We support real science and scientists throughout the world.

NVIDIA is committed to fostering a diverse work environment and proud to be an equal opportunity employer.

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.

Machine Learning Jobs UK 2026: What to Expect Over the Next 3 Years

Machine learning has undergone a transformation that few technology disciplines can match. In the space of three years it has moved from a specialism sitting at the edges of most organisations' technology strategies to a capability that sits at the centre of them. The tools have changed, the expectations have shifted, and the range of industries treating machine learning as a core business function — rather than an experimental one — has expanded dramatically. For job seekers, this creates both opportunity and complexity in roughly equal measure. The machine learning jobs market of 2026 is significantly larger than it was three years ago, but it is also significantly more demanding. Employers have developed more sophisticated expectations, the technical bar for specialist roles has risen, and the landscape of tools, frameworks, and architectural patterns that practitioners are expected to know has broadened considerably. The candidates who will thrive over the next three years are those who understand where the discipline is heading — which specialisms are attracting the most investment, which technologies are reshaping what machine learning engineers and researchers are expected to build, and how the definition of a machine learning career is evolving beyond the model-building core toward a much wider range of roles across the full ML lifecycle. This article breaks down what the UK machine learning jobs market is likely to look like through to 2028 — covering the titles emerging right now, the technologies driving employer demand, the skills that will matter most, and how to position your career ahead of the curve.

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.
