Job Summary

As an AI Compiler Engineer on the Renesas HPC team you will be responsible for driving compiler and code generation technologies that unlock the full compute potential of Renesas next-generation automotive System-on-Chip platforms including advanced 3 nm silicon for software-defined vehicles (SDVs). Your work will directly impact how AI workloads from perception and sensor fusion to in-vehicle assistants and advanced driver assistance are translated into highly optimized safe and power-efficient execution on Renesas hardware.
This role bridges software compiler development AI model lowering/optimization and hardware-software co-design enabling Renesas SoCs to deliver industry-competitive performance efficiency and functional safety required by multi-domain automotive applications..

Job Description
Lead AI compiler architecture across model ingestion graph optimization lowering code generation and runtime integration
Design and implement graphlevel optimizations (operator fusion quantizationaware rewrites memoryaware scheduling partitioning)
Drive performance optimization for target NPUs including tiling tensor layout and multicore execution strategies
Partner with SoC and AI accelerator architects to influence hardware features through compiler insights
Own performance KPIs for real automotive AI workloads using simulators profilers and siliconcorrelated models
Ensure compiler outputs meet automotive requirements (realtime behavior determinism quality expectations)
Mentor senior engineers and set technical direction without peoplemanagement responsibilities

Impact & Differentiators
Renesas Gen5 R-Car automotive SoC lineup including flagship 3 nm devices like the R-Car X5H is among the first highly integrated multi-domain automotive SoCs built on advanced 3 nm process technology designed to run ADAS IVI gateway and next-gen SDV workloads on a centralized platform. These platforms deliver high AI performance (e.g. multi-hundreds of TOPS) scalable chiplet-based acceleration and power efficiency tailored for electrified and autonomous vehicles while meeting stringent functional safety standards.  An AI Compiler Engineer enables this hardware vision by ensuring that state-of-the-art AI models and computational kernels are efficiently mapped to the silicon fabric directly enhancing performance reducing latency and energy and accelerating software adoption in automotive ecosystems where compute efficiency and safety are paramount.


Qualifications :

Must-Have
MS/PhD (or equivalent experience) in Computer Science EE or related field
Deep experience building AI compilers accelerator backends or graph optimization frameworks
Strong expertise in graph optimization and performance optimization for NPUs or custom accelerators
Experience with MLIR LLVM TVMlike systems or proprietary compiler IRs
Excellent C/C and Python skills
Solid understanding of AI inference workloads (CNNs transformers perception or generative models)
Strong communication skills are required e.g. agile development experience in Scrum team (Product Owner or Scrum Master)

Nice-to-Have
Experience with automotive or safetycritical systems
Background in heterogeneous SoCs (CPU/GPU/DSP/NPU)
Performance modeling or hardwaresoftware codesign experience
