Senior Developer Tools Engineer

About the role

This role sits at the intersection of systems programming and developer tooling. You'll work closely with our compiler engineers to surface server-side telemetry through intuitive client-side interfaces, ultimately creating a best-in-class development experience for our users.

Responsibilities

• Design and build developer tools for profiling, debugging, and performance introspection across our compiler stack.
• Create client-side tooling that transforms server-side compiler telemetry into clear, actionable information for engineers.
• Develop interfaces that expose hardware performance metrics, and interrupt data in meaningful ways.
• Build GPU debugging capabilities and visualization tools to help engineers understand execution on heterogeneous hardware.
• Define formats and protocols for debug information exchange, working with standard debugger formats (DWARF, JTAG) and object file formats (ELF, COFF).
• Collaborate with internal engineering teams to understand their needs and iterate on tooling, with a path toward external customer-facing tools.

Requirements

• 3+ years of professional experience in systems-level software development.
• Strong proficiency in C++ with experience writing performance-critical code.
• Working knowledge of assembly language and low-level debugging techniques.
• Familiarity with debugger formats (DWARF, JTAG) and object file formats (ELF, COFF).
• Understanding of profiling methodologies and performance analysis tools.
• Ability to work on-site at our Toronto or Santa Clara office.

Qualifications

• Experience with GPU programming and debugging (CUDA, ROCm, or similar) is preferred.
• Experience with OS-level interfaces including I/O subsystems and interrupt handling is preferred.
• A background in compiler development or toolchain infrastructure is preferred.
• Experience building developer-facing tools or IDEs is preferred.
• Contributions to open-source debugging or profiling tools are preferred.

Skills

• Experience with C++ and performance-critical code.
• Knowledge of assembly language and low-level debugging techniques.
