About the Role

We are looking for a Senior Software Engineer (SDE III) who will build, profile, and optimize GPU workloads powering next-generation generative AI experiences — from Stable Diffusion image generation to transformer-based multimodal models.
You'll work closely with research and infrastructure teams to make model inference faster, more cost-efficient, and production-ready.

This role is ideal for engineers passionate about pushing GPUs to their limits, writing high-performance kernels, and turning cutting-edge research into scalable systems.

Key Responsibilities

• Develop, optimize, and maintain GPU kernels (CUDA, Triton, ROCm) for diffusion, attention, and convolution operators.
• Profile end-to-end inference pipelines (data movement, kernel scheduling, memory transfers) to identify and resolve bottlenecks.
• Apply techniques like operator fusion, tiling, caching, and mixed-precision compute to maximize GPU throughput.
• Collaborate with researchers to productionize experimental layers or model architectures.
• Build benchmarking tools and micro-tests for latency, memory, and throughput regressions.
• Integrate kernel improvements into serving stacks, ensuring reliability and repeatable performance.
• Work with platform teams to tune runtime configurations and job scheduling for GPU utilization.

Required Qualifications

• 4+ years of experience in systems or ML engineering, with 2+ years working on GPU or accelerator optimization.
• Strong hands-on skills with CUDA programming, memory hierarchies, warps, threads, and shared memory.
• Familiarity with profiling tools (Nsight, nvprof, CUPTI) and performance analysis.
• Working knowledge of PyTorch, JAX, or TensorFlow internals.
• Proficiency in C++ and Python.
• Experience with mixed precision, FP16/BF16, or quantization.
• Deep curiosity about system bottlenecks and numerical correctness.

Preferred Qualifications

• Experience building fused operators or integrating custom kernels with PyTorch extensions.
• Understanding of NCCL / distributed inference frameworks.
• Contributions to open-source GPU or compiler projects (Triton, TVM, XLA, TensorRT).
• Familiarity with multi-GPU / multi-node training and inference setups.
