Member of Technical Staff — Developer Technology
Palo Alto, CA$200k - $400kFull-timePosted 3mo ago
About the role
Role focused on accelerating LLM inference and training on modern GPU hardware, profiling and optimizing GPU performance, enabling new models and hardware, building kernels, and supporting production workloads for SGLang and Miles.
Responsibilities
- Accelerate AI workloads. Profile and optimize GPU performance for real production workloads on current and next-generation hardware, root-causing bottlenecks from kernels to distributed multi-node systems.
- Go deep in one or two focus areas. The team collectively covers the full stack; each engineer specializes in one or two tracks: Inference performance; Kernels and model/hardware enablement; Speculative decoding; Training systems.
- Partner directly with the ecosystem. Turn ambiguous, high-stakes problems from expert engineers at key partners into concrete wins, clear technical guidance, and reproducible cookbooks.
- Enhance SGLang and Miles. Feed user-driven improvements back into open-source systems and roadmap, so every win compounds across the ecosystem.
Qualifications
- 4+ years of experience in GPU systems, LLM infrastructure, or performance engineering.
- Strong profiling and debugging skills: able to root-cause performance and correctness issues across the stack.
- Hands-on GPU programming experience in at least one of CUDA, ROCm, or Triton, and willingness to work across platforms.
- Strong programming skills in Python plus C++ or CUDA.
- Comfortable making progress on hard, ambiguous problems with little context to start from, and fast to ramp into unfamiliar systems, codebases, and domains.
- Ability to translate ambiguous asks into clear technical plans, verified cookbooks, and actionable recommendations, and to communicate credibly with expert engineering audiences.
