Job Description

Graphics Software Development Engineer
Job Overview

We are seeking a talented engineer to design, implement, and optimize rendering systems, shaders, and graphics features that deliver high visual fidelity and real-time performance. This role is hands-on with C++ and shader programming, profiling CPU/GPU workloads, integrating art assets, and collaborating across UX tools (Altia Design, Kanzi Studio, Unity) and QA teams to ship stable, performant graphics for target platforms. Expect a balance of feature development, debugging, and performance engineering with frequent cross-discipline collaboration.
Education
  • Bachelor's degree in Computer Science, Electrical Engineering, Electronic Engineering, or related field.
Key Responsibilities
  • Implement rendering features (lighting, materials, post-processing, animation systems).
  • Write and optimize shaders (HLSL/GLSL/Metal) for performance across GPUs.
  • Profile CPU/GPU workloads, identify bottlenecks, and apply optimizations.
  • Integrate and optimize 3D assets, meshes, textures, and materials.
  • Debug visual defects and implement robust fixes.
  • Maintain code quality via unit/integration tests and code reviews.
  • Collaborate with engine, tools, QA, and product teams.
  • Support portability across multiple graphics APIs and hardware platforms.
Required Skills & Qualifications (6-12 years experience)
  • GUI/HMI development using Altia Design, QT, CGI, Kanzi Studio, Unity, or Unreal Engine.
  • UI/UX asset handling (Photoshop, After Effects, Figma, Illustrator).
  • Real-time animation modeling in Altia/Kanzi/Unity/Unreal.
  • Model-Based Development (Simulink/Stateflow, Embedded Coder, Target Link).
  • Programming: C/C++/C#, MATLAB, Python.
  • Software architecture and system integration.
  • AUTOSAR familiarity (Classic & Adaptive).
  • Requirements/change management and effort estimation.
  • Debugging and verification across dev/target environments.
  • Performance profiling and optimization for embedded rendering.
  • 3D asset optimization (Blender, Maya, 3ds Max).
  • Testing/logging tools, CI/CD automation, Git/SVN.
  • PLM/ALM tools (Jira, Polarion, Jazz).
  • Supplier and cross-functional coordination.
  • Strong communication and problem-solving mindset.
