What you need

  • 7+ years of software engineering experience with a proven track record of designing, building, and operating production-scale machine learning systems and platforms (MLOps).
  • Proficient in Python, Go, C++, or similar backend languages.
  • Deep understanding of ML systems design, memory management, and distributed computing.
  • Deep experience with containerized deployments (Docker, Kubernetes), GPU scheduling/orchestration, and distributed training frameworks (e.g., PyTorch Distributed, Ray, Slurm, or Megatron-LM).
  • Hands-on experience building distributed data pipelines (ETL) and managing massive datasets (terabytes of unstructured/multi-modal sensor data).
  • Experience setting technical direction, leading complex system migrations, and mentoring senior engineers.

Nice to have

  • Experience building and running ML infrastructure, model serving, or software registries within secure, air-gapped, or highly regulated environments (e.g., IL5/IL6, GovCloud).
  • Experience specifically building training and evaluation platforms for Large Language Models, Generative AI architectures, or Reinforcement Learning (RL) pipelines.
  • Experience profiling training hardware performance, identifying bottlenecks across networks and memory, and optimizing hardware utilization.
  • Experience designing and operating multi-tenant ML platforms that serve multiple research teams, with robust resource isolation, quota management, and fair scheduling across shared GPU clusters.
  • Hands-on experience with next-generation AI accelerators beyond standard GPUs (e.g., AWS Trainium, Google TPUs, or custom ASICs) for training and inference workloads.

What you get

  • Comprehensive, competitive benefits package available at little to no cost to employees.
  • Highly competitive equity grants included in the majority of full time offers.

Worth weighing

  • No specific mention of the technologies or frameworks used in the existing ML platform, which could impact your familiarity with the stack.
  • The role requires eligibility for a U.S. Top Secret security clearance, which may be a barrier for some candidates.
