Member of Technical Staff, ML Systems
True Talent Solutions Partners · Menlo Park · onsite
ABOUT THE ROLE
Join a team building high-performance training and inference systems for image, video, and world-model workloads. You will improve efficiency across GPU kernels, distributed execution, and serving systems, helping make demanding AI workloads faster and more scalable.
WHAT YOU'LL DO
- Optimize training and inference performance for image, video, diffusion, and world-model workloads.
- Profile bottlenecks across GPU kernels, memory, systems, and clusters using Nsight and related tools.
- Implement low-level optimizations with CUDA and Triton.
- Design and improve distributed training and inference engines for diffusion models.
- Improve communication performance across GPUs and nodes using technologies such as NCCL, RDMA, InfiniBand, and RoCE.
- Build benchmarking and regression tools to validate and preserve performance gains in production.
- Co-design kernels, runtimes, and models with target hardware in mind.
WHAT WE'RE LOOKING FOR
- At least 2 years of experience in deep learning training or inference systems, distributed systems, or related ML systems work.
- At least 1 year of recent, hands-on experience in ML systems or GPU performance engineering.
- Experience authoring core features in an inference or training framework, such as vLLM, SGLang, TensorRT-LLM, Megatron, or a similar system.
- Direct kernel development experience on NVIDIA GPUs using CUDA, CUTLASS, Triton, or PTX.
- Strong machine learning and computer science fundamentals, with a degree in computer science or a related quantitative field.
- Experience optimizing inference or training performance, including GPU kernels, runtimes, or distributed execution.
- Experience with diffusion, video, image, or other multimodal workloads is relevant.
