Software Engineer, Model Inference

• Work alongside machine learning researchers, engineers, and product managers to bring our latest technologies into production
• Work alongside researchers to enable advanced research through awesome engineering
• Introduce new techniques, tools, and architecture that improve the performance, latency, throughput, and efficiency of our model inference stack
• Build tools to give us visibility into our bottlenecks and sources of instability and then design and implement solutions to address the highest priority issues
• Optimize our code and fleet of Azure VMs to utilize every FLOP and every GB of GPU RAM of our hardware

• Understanding of modern ML architectures and an intuition for how to optimize their performance, particularly for inference
• Own problems end-to-end, and are willing to pick up whatever knowledge you're missing to get the job done
• At least 5 years of professional software engineering experience
• Familiarity with PyTorch, NVidia GPUs and the software stacks that optimize them (e.g. NCCL, CUDA), as well as HPC technologies such as InfiniBand, MPI, NVLink, etc
• Experience architecting, building, observing, and debugging production distributed systems
• Have needed to rebuild or substantially refactor production systems several times over due to rapidly increasing scale
• Are self-directed and enjoy figuring out the most important problem to work on
• Have a humble attitude, an eagerness to help your colleagues, and a desire to do whatever it takes to make the team succeed
