TL;DR · Senior AI/ML Platform Engineer

The Sr. AI/ML Platform Engineer joins the team to build a scalable platform layer for AI-for-engineering workflows. This role focuses on developing infrastructure for large-scale agent execution, distributed training, inference, experiment tracking, and GPU cluster utilization. You will build robust shared systems, APIs, and dashboards to turn research workflows into production services, supporting kernel optimization, RTL/PPA optimization, and verification. Key responsibilities include managing job scheduling, artifact storage, and benchmark automation. You will utilize technologies including Python, C++, Go, Rust, Kubernetes, Ray, Slurm, vLLM, SGLang, Triton, and ROCm/HIP. The role solves the technical challenge of operationalizing research into reliable engineering use by providing reproducible evaluation, performance profiling, and workload isolation across complex hardware and software tooling for ML systems and hardware domain experts.

What you'll do

  • Build and operate a shared AI platform for job submission, scheduling, orchestration, and experiment tracking.
  • Develop infrastructure for distributed training, inference, and large-scale agent rollout across GPU clusters.
  • Create platform services for benchmark execution, profiling, regression tracking, and reproducible evaluations.
  • Maintain artifact systems for kernels, RTL edits, traces, logs, and formal verification outputs.
  • Integrate the platform with compilers, ROCm/HIP tooling, simulators, and internal engineering systems.
  • Optimize GPU cluster utilization, scheduling efficiency, quota management, and workload isolation.
  • Build dashboards and observability systems to monitor experiment status, resource usage, and failure modes.
  • Productionize research workflows for RL systems, inference systems, and evaluation pipelines.

What we're looking for

  • Bachelor's degree in Computer Science, Computer Engineering, Electrical Engineering, Machine Learning, or related field, or equivalent practical experience.
  • Master's degree (preferred); PhD is a plus, especially with work in ML systems, reinforcement learning, distributed systems, GPU computing, or AI infrastructure.
  • Strong programming skills in Python and one or more systems languages such as C++, Go, or Rust (preferred).
  • Experience building ML platforms, AI infrastructure, distributed systems, workflow orchestration, experiment platforms, GPU cluster infrastructure, or developer platforms (preferred).
  • Experience with GPU platforms, ROCm/HIP, CUDA, profiling, kernel benchmarking, model serving, or distributed training/inference (preferred).
  • Experience with vLLM, SGLang, Triton, PyTorch, JAX, Ray, Kubernetes, Slurm, MLflow, Weights & Biases, or similar systems (preferred).
  • Experience supporting LLM agents, tool-use systems, large-scale sampling, or automated program optimization workflows (preferred).
  • Familiarity with compiler, profiler, simulator, formal verification, EDA, firmware, or hardware performance workflows is a strong plus (preferred).
