The Senior Staff Engineer - AI Workloads & Storage joins the Technology Enabling Development Lab to develop host interface firmware at the intersection of system software and flash management. This role focuses on building next-generation NAND/SSD storage systems optimized for large-scale AI workloads, specifically addressing bottlenecks in moving model weights and KV cache through the storage hierarchy. You will characterize production LLM inference, RAG, and training workloads to drive architecture decisions, identify optimal data placement using NVMe Flexible Data Placement and streams, and lead performance analysis across the Linux storage stack.
