About the role

In this role, you will be responsible for the core systems that enable our researchers to train frontier models at scale, focusing obsessively on speed, cost, reliability, and throughput.
You will work at the intersection of machine learning research and high-performance systems engineering.
Your work will directly impact our ability to scale large-scale distributed model training and reduce the time-to-convergence for our next generation of models.

Implement optimizations like kernel fusion, sharding, and tiling to improve step time.
Distributed Training: Optimize distributed training pipelines using frameworks such as PyTorch Distributed.
Kernel Development: Design and maintain high-performance GPU kernels in Triton or CUDA for state-of-the-art ML workloads.
Data Pipeline Engineering: Optimize robust data loading pipelines that maximize training throughput.
Design and maintain high-performance GPU kernels in Triton or CUDA for state-of-the-art ML workloads.
We aren't just developing driverless cars; we're creating safer roadways, more equitable transportation options, and making our communities better places to live, work, and connect.
To do so successfully, we must design for everyone in our cities and on our roads.
We believe in building a great place to work through a progressive, global culture that is diverse, inclusive, and ensures people feel valued at every level of the organization.

Utilize profiling tools (e.g., Nsight, PyTorch Profiler) to identify bottlenecks in data loading, gradient computation, and communication.
