What we need to see
BS/MS/PhD in Computer Science, Electrical Engineering, or related field (or equivalent experience)
5+ years of proven experience in related field
Hands-on experience integrating with at least one major AI framework/runtime (e.g., PyTorch, Ray, Triton Inference Server ecosystem, distributed runtimes, model serving stacks).
Solid understanding of AI workloads: model development basics, training vs. inference tradeoffs, and performance considerations (throughput/latency, batching, memory).
Experience with distributed systems concepts (RPC, scheduling, fault tolerance, resource management).
Practical Kubernetes experience: deploying and operating services/jobs, Helm/Kustomize, operators/controllers (nice to have), and debugging clusters.
Familiarity with containers and cloud-native tooling (Docker, container registries, CI/CD pipelines).
Strong software engineering experience in Go, C++ and/or Python, with a track record of shipping reliable systems.
Strong interpersonal skills and ability to collaborate across teams and with open-source communities.
Exceptional collaboration, communication, and documentation habits.
Ways to stand out from the crowd
Open-source contributions to Dynamo, PyTorch, Ray, llm-d, Kubernetes ecosystem, or related ML infrastructure projects.
Experience with large-scale model serving, distributed inference, or multi-tenant AI platforms.
Experience building SDKs/APIs or developer tooling that improves integration usability.
Knowledge of GPU performance profiling and optimization (Nsight tools or similar), and/or kernel-level performance tuning.
Experience with reproducibility, packaging, versioning, and compatibility testing across fast-moving dependencies.
