About the company

Our client is a fast-growing technology company.

The role

Raydar is recruiting for this role on behalf of our client. Own speed and efficiency for machine learning training and serving systems, working from low-level GPU code up to multi-machine deployments. You will profile, tune and harden these systems alongside a small, senior technical group.

What you'll do

  • Improve GPU and system performance for model training and serving.
  • Find and resolve slowdowns across the hardware, memory, software and cluster layers.
  • Write low-level GPU optimizations using CUDA and Triton.
  • Design and improve distributed training and serving engines.
  • Own communication performance between GPUs and machines, including high-speed networking and disaggregated serving.
  • Build benchmarking and regression tooling so performance improvements hold up in production.
  • Co-design kernels, runtimes and models with the underlying hardware in mind.

What we're looking for

  • Hands-on experience writing custom GPU kernels for NVIDIA hardware.
  • Has built core capabilities inside a widely used model training or serving framework, rather than only deploying or integrating it.
  • Degree in computer science or a related quantitative field; recent graduates should come from a top program.
  • A year or more of current, professional experience in machine learning infrastructure or GPU tuning.
  • Track record of speeding up model execution at the hardware, runtime and multi-machine levels.
  • Strong grounding in machine learning and computer science fundamentals.

Bonus points

  • Background tuning generative models that work with visual or other non-text data.

Location and work model

  • California, United States
  • On-site, 5 days a week in the office
  • Full-time
