About the role

  • You'll ship real improvements to customers weekly while pushing the boundaries of what's possible in AI for hardware through reinforcement learning, agentic coding, and exceptional software engineering.
  • Agentic Systems: Handle multi-modal complexity and explore multi-agent and RL approaches for agentic code generation and tool use.
  • Mentorship: Guide junior engineers and establish best practices for AI development.

Responsibilities

  • Design and implement LLM-powered solutions that extract meaning from complex technical specifications.
  • Design strategies to manage latency, output variance, and graceful error handling at scale.
  • Collaborate with product and engineering teams to embed AI capabilities seamlessly into our platform.
  • As an AI Engineer at Normal, you will build production systems that understand large technical documents, like chip design specifications, and turn them into code.
  • Document Understanding: Design and implement LLM-powered solutions that extract meaning from complex technical specifications.
  • Production Quality: Design strategies to manage latency, output variance, and graceful error handling at scale.
  • Platform Integration: Collaborate with product and engineering teams to embed AI capabilities seamlessly into our platform.
  • Previous experience delivering production AI systems involving language models, preferably involving document understanding and/or agentic workflows

Requirements

  • Proficiency in Python and modern ML frameworks (PyTorch, Hugging Face, transformers)
  • Hands-on experience with prompt engineering, fine-tuning, and deploying large language models
  • Ability to wrangle, clean, and preprocess large-scale, heterogeneous datasets
  • Ability to explain complex AI concepts to both technical and non-technical stakeholders
  • Experience with hardware design, hardware verification, or EDA tooling
  • Experience with cloud platforms (AWS, GCP, Azure) for large-scale AI infrastructure
  • Research or applied experience with LLM agents, RL (offline/online, RLHF/RLAIF), constrained decoding, or program synthesis

Skills

  • Solid software engineering skills with experience in distributed systems and production-grade code
  • Skill in balancing cutting-edge innovation with production reliability and pragmatism

Compensation

  • $10k-$100k
