TL;DR · Senior AI Developer Technology Engineer

The Senior AI Developer Technology Engineer joins the DevTech team to accelerate the frontier of generative AI training and inference. This role involves developing cutting-edge techniques to GPU-accelerate complex workloads, including large language models, diffusion models, and multimodal systems. You will build and optimize algorithms, contribute to training and inference frameworks, and work on low-level software libraries and open-source projects. The position requires programming fluency in C/C++, a deep understanding of algorithms, and expertise in parallel programming and performance analysis. You will perform in-depth analysis of complex AI algorithms on modern CPU and GPU architectures to shape next-generation hardware and system software. This role solves technical bottlenecks in accelerated computing by optimizing performance for state-of-the-art deep learning and machine learning domains.

What you'll do

  • Develop techniques to GPU-accelerate complex workloads for generative AI, deep learning, and machine learning.
  • Optimize generative AI training and inference performance directly on the NVIDIA platform.
  • Build and optimize algorithms for training and inference frameworks and low-level software libraries.
  • Perform in-depth analysis and optimization of complex AI algorithms on modern CPU and GPU architectures.
  • Influence the design of next-generation hardware, system software, libraries, and programming models.
  • Publish breakthrough optimization techniques in developer blogs and present at industry conferences.

What we're looking for

  • MS in Computer Science, Computer Engineering, or a related computational field (or equivalent experience).
  • 8+ years of relevant work or research experience in software engineering and performance tuning.
  • Programming fluency in C/C++ with a deep understanding of algorithms and software development.
  • Background in accelerated computing with knowledge of parallel programming, performance analysis, and optimization.
  • Hands-on experience performing low-level performance optimizations.
  • Foundational understanding of modern CPU and GPU architectures.
  • Good communication, organization, and logical problem-solving skills.
  • Expertise in parallelization and performance optimization of LLMs, Diffusion Models, and Multimodal Architectures (preferred).
