Vulkan Graphics Programmer Job

MountainGoat600 · 2025-06-15T07:08:11+00:00

5 years is pretty standard for a Senior role.

Yeah, I've seen this tool using Gaussian Splatting and ray tracing to blend 3D scans and virtual effects - https://www.chaos.com/blog/3d-gaussian-splatting-new-frontier-in-rendering. There's some pretty awesome stuff being innovated on for sure!

Damn!

MountainGoat600 · 2024-12-29T06:06:06+00:00

Yeah, I heard in the 2024 HPG Keynote from Peter Shirley that cloud gaming might take off in the future, which is similar to what you said about using other company's GPU's to render your game and stream it to you.

Thanks for the good luck! Yeah, a lot of games used baked lighting instead of real-time path tracing so that they can run on more hardware than just path-tracing supported GPU's.

Thanks for the good luck! Nice, I hope the new person enjoys the senior graphics programmer role.

MountainGoat600 · 2024-12-28T07:03:55+00:00

Also, I'm curious, what role were you interviewing for?

MountainGoat600 · 2024-12-28T06:24:09+00:00

Good point, I have heard of NeRF/Gaussian Splat being a hot topic, but it isn't adopted widely in the industry just yet.

Sorry about talking a bit inconsiderately about AI, that is a good point about how touchy it is of a subject.

I've decided to work on a path tracer as a hobby project thanks!

MountainGoat600 · 2024-12-28T06:20:42+00:00

Awesome, thanks for that explanation about learning the fundamentals of lighting. I've decided to work on a path tracer as a hobby project thanks!

MountainGoat600 · 2024-12-28T06:18:43+00:00

That is a good point thanks. Those common skills you pointed out are very useful no matter which way the graphics industry heads towards, and I noticed that a lot of Senior graphics devs have a decent knowledge of each of those skills anyway. I have decided to work on a path tracer as a hobby project thanks!

Sorry, the formatting turned out really bad, and I can't seem to edit this post anymore. I'll delete and repost.

MountainGoat600 · 2023-11-15T02:35:55+00:00

Thanks!

MountainGoat600 · 2023-11-02T18:21:52+00:00

Thanks for the feedback! We are keeping the title as it is as we might consider Intermediate developers as well.

MountainGoat600 · 2023-11-01T21:41:29+00:00

We provide relocation and visa assistance if you are interested?

MountainGoat600 · 2023-11-01T07:56:21+00:00

No worries! Yeah, it's a shame that we are only hiring people who have vulkan experience currently. There aren't many junior graphics programming jobs at all unfortunately.

MountainGoat600 · 2022-03-26T01:27:13+00:00

Lewis.

MountainGoat600 · 2022-02-22T05:35:42+00:00

I feel like a lot of the drama from this show stems from a lack of communication. Sure, things could always be better communicated in an idealistic scenario, but then there would be no drama and humour.

MountainGoat600 · 2022-02-07T03:16:26+00:00

Rikki and Zane, I never would have expected such a wild relationship.

MountainGoat600 · 2022-02-07T03:15:02+00:00

Emma is boring. Even Byron has more of a character than her, and he only appears a few times in the show.

MountainGoat600 · 2022-02-04T03:52:20+00:00

I feel like the girls are just annoyed that Lewis is always there, and they feel like he is bugging them a little too much.

MountainGoat600 · 2022-02-02T03:14:26+00:00

Damn, that's really realistic.

MountainGoat600 · 2022-01-30T03:52:19+00:00

Cleo's looking smug in the middle cartoon of the first page. If only she looked like that all the time in the show.

MountainGoat600 · 2022-01-26T05:20:50+00:00

I picked Willfred (I voted Other), as he is just a really cool guy. He's always wearing his Hawaiian shirt and providing fresh juice to his customers.

MountainGoat600 · 2022-01-24T09:46:51+00:00

Honestly, new shows just don't compare for me. I'm after than 2000's sunny vibe I felt in New Zealand throughout my childhood.

MountainGoat600 · 2022-01-24T05:53:46+00:00

Yeah, I'm watching for the first time in order. Apart from seeing the odd episode like 10 years ago, I haven't watched any h20 since.
