Genesis AI is building Nyx, a renderer that delivers offline quality at realtime performance. We’re looking for a principal-level rendering engineer to own performance across its pipeline. Nyx is a hybrid renderer, but not a classic game-engine hybrid. You’ll need to master the profiling tools and have the technical depth to know how to apply them to a pipeline they’ve never seen, and to build your own instrumentation where they fall short.
What you’ll do
•
Own frame-time budgets and drive GPU/CPU rendering performance across all target platforms
•
Profile, diagnose, and optimize the full rendering pipeline: geometry, shading, lighting, post
•
Adapt profiling methodology to a non-standard hybrid pipeline; build custom instrumentation and counters where existing tools can’t see
•
Evolve hybrid raster/ray-traced rendering paths
•
Set the technical bar: review architecture, mentor senior engineers, kill bad ideas early
•
Work directly with hardware vendors on low-level GPU issues and our target hardware
What we’re looking for
•
10+ years in real-time rendering, with shipped AAA titles where you owned rendering performance
•
Mastery of GPU profiling tools: PIX, Razor GPU/CPU, RGP, Nsight, and reading raw GPU counters, with the judgment to know what each tool can and can’t tell you on an unfamiliar pipeline
•
Deep knowledge of modern GPU architectures (AMD RDNA, wave occupancy, cache behavior, async compute)
•
Strong command of D3D12, Vulkan, and at least one console graphics API at a low level
•
Hands-on experience building or optimizing hybrid rendering pipelines
•
Expert-level C++ and HLSL/GLSL; comfortable in shader disassembly when it matters
