AI Engineer, Model Quality and Performance
Cerebras· Software Engineering
Sunnyvale, CAFull-timePosted 3mo ago
About the role
Role focused on owning model quality and performance for Cerebras' inference offerings by defining what “good” looks like, building AI-driven evaluation systems, and generating artifacts for customers and product teams.
Responsibilities
- Design eval suites with AI agents in the loop. For every model release, curate a mix of advanced, basic, long-context, and customer-use-case-specific evals. Use Claude to generate, validate, and prune candidate test cases at speed.
- Build custom evals for target customers by orchestrating AI agents to mine trajectories from their workloads and synthesize representative eval sets.
- Automate eval execution end-to-end with AI-driven pipelines on top of standard tooling (Docker, Git, CI).
- Build automations to forecast and benchmark model performance on Cerebras for our top customers, including modeling how fast customer-specific workloads will run in production.
- Build product-quality tooling that synthesizes quality + performance data into a single, easy-to-use view.
Qualifications
- Experience building AI agents. You ship real systems with Claude (or equivalent) as a force multiplier.
- Strong math/stats background.
- Comfort with Docker, Git, and the standard automation stack.
- A taste for tooling design. You've shipped something that a non-engineer used without complaining. Bonus if AI helped you ship it.
