About the role

  • RadixArk is hiring a Performance Engineer in Palo Alto, CA - someone who can push LLM inference and training systems to the limit across real production workloads.
  • You'll work on the performance-critical path of SGLang, Miles, and the RadixArk infrastructure stack: latency, throughput, GPU utilization, memory efficiency, scheduling, batching, kernel behavior, distributed execution, and cost-per-token.
  • This is not a generic benchmarking role.

Responsibilities

  • Optimize latency, throughput, memory usage, batching, scheduling, routing, and GPU utilization
  • Build internal tooling for profiling, tracing, benchmarking, and regression detection

Requirements

  • Experience with GPU systems, distributed systems, inference serving, ML runtimes, or high-performance computing
  • Familiarity with profiling tools, performance debugging, tracing, and benchmark methodology
  • Comfort working with Python and C++
  • Ability to debug messy real-world performance issues across software, hardware, and infrastructure layers

Nice to have

  • Experience with CUDA, Triton, Pallas, ROCm, XLA, or kernel-level optimization is a strong plus
  • Prior experience with production AI infrastructure, cloud GPU environments, or open-source ML systems is a plus

Compensation

  • We offer competitive compensation with meaningful equity, comprehensive health benefits, and flexible work arrangements.
  • Compensation is determined by location, level, and experience.

Company info

  • Our customers care about real numbers: P99 latency, TTFT, tokens/sec/GPU, throughput under long-context workloads, cost-per-million tokens, RL rollout efficiency, and training-inference consistency.
  • Partner with customers and cloud partners on deep technical evaluations
  • What We're Looking For
