Discount code: AIPERF15 for 15% off!

Join Vizuara’s live Kernel Engineering cohort, run in partnership with Crusoe. Learn how GPU kernels work from first principles, then write, profile, and optimize them through practical coding sessions.

The course covers parallelism, the roofline model, CUDA, GPU memory, matrix multiplication, tensor cores, and attention kernels, building toward modern tools and an engineering capstone. Recordings and code are included.

Designed for engineers comfortable with Python and basic PyTorch; no prior CUDA or C++ experience is required.
