The Role: Principal Engineer/Technical Director, Distributed Systems
What You Will Do:
The Principal Engineer/Director role requires you to be part of the team that helps productize the SW stack for our AI compute engine. As part of the software team, you will lead the development, enhancement, and maintenance of the distributed systems software stack for sclaeout of the next generation AI hardware. The d-Matrix software stack consists of runtime and lowering software. The runtime software consists of host drivers, inference serving engines and embedded chip software that support execution of large language models across single cards, multiple cards on a node and multiple nodes on and across racks in a data center. The distributed systems team builds software to enable scaleout. This includes support for data plane operations such as protocol translation hardware NICs, as well as control and management plane operations such as telemetry, monitoring, micro-services, container orchestration, and datacenter network tooling
You possess experience building large scale systems for novel HW architectures. You possess a very strong understanding of scaleout and data communication collectives. You also have experience in
You have had past experience working across all aspects of a full stack tool chain for an accelerator and understand the nuances of what it takes to optimize and trade-off various aspects of hardware-software co-design. You are able to build and scale software deliverables in a tight development window. This role requires collaborating with the HW and SW architecture team, the compiler team, the data science numerics team, SW test group, the benchmark group and the teams developing the various simulator and emulation platforms.
What You WIll Bring:
- BS Computer Science, Engineering, Math, Physics or related degree / MS Preferred The Role: Principal Engineer/Technical Director, Distributed Systems
