Software Engineer, Compilers - Mountain View

This position is based in Mountain View, CA.

Google is looking for experienced Compiler Engineers to join several of our efforts towards building the world's most effective computing platform. We are particularly interested in individuals who excel at compiler design and implementation.

The ideal candidates will be able to help us improve the Gnu toolchain (gcc/glibc/binutils) in one or both of two ways:

• Improve overall performance of our code base by analyzing performance bottlenecks.


• Design and implement changes to the toolchain that would relieve those bottlenecks.


• Possible projects include improving interprocedural, inlining, profile-driven, postlink, or whole-program optimization.


• Improve overall productivity of our Programmers by identifying programming errors that could have been detected by static analysis.


• Design and implement changes to the toolchain that would catch those errors as early as possible.

Demonstrable experience in at least one of the following:

• Compiler design and code optimization.


• Performance debugging and optimization of large C++ applications.


• Static code analysis.

Desired skills:

• Knowledge of Gnu C/C++ internals and standard library implementations.


• Deep understanding of computer architecture.


• Familiarity with x86 and x86_64 assembly and Linux internals.


• Design of performance tools.

Requirements:

• BS/MS Computer Science/Engineering. PhD is welcome.


• Minimum 5 years of relevant industry experience.
