Sr. ML Compiler Engineer, AWS Neuron, Annapurna Labs
DESCRIPTION
Do you love decomposing problems to develop products that impact millions of people around the world? Would you enjoy identifying, defining, and building software solutions that revolutionize how businesses operate?
The Annapurna Labs team at Amazon Web Services (AWS) is looking for a Senior Software Development Engineer to build, deliver, and maintain complex products that delight our customers and raise our performance bar. You’ll design fault-tolerant systems that run at massive scale as we continue to innovate best-in-class services and applications in the AWS Cloud.
At Annapurna Labs our vision is to make deep learning pervasive for everyday developers and to democratize access to cutting edge infrastructure. In order to deliver on that vision, we’ve created innovative software and hardware solutions that make it possible.
AWS Neuron is the SDK that optimizes the performance of complex neural net models executed on AWS Inferentia and Trainium, our custom chips designed to accelerate deep-learning workloads
The Neuron SDK consists of a compiler, run-time, and debugger, integrated with Tensorflow, PyTorch, and MXNet. It’s preinstalled in AWS Deep Learning AMIs and Deep Learning Containers for customers to quickly get started with running high performance and cost-effective inference.
The Neuron team is hiring senior compiler engineers in order to solve our customers toughest problems.
This is an opportunity to work on cutting-edge products at the intersection of machine-learning, high-performance computing, and distributed architectures. You will architect and implement business-critical features, publish cutting-edge research, and mentor a brilliant team of experienced engineers. We operate in spaces that are very large, yet our teams remain small and agile. There is no blueprint. We're inventing. We're experimenting. It is a very unique learning culture.
As a senior deep learning compiler engineer on the Neuron team, you will be a thought leader supporting the development of a compiler targeting AWS Inferentia and Trainum. You will be developing and scaling the compiler to handle the world's largest ML workloads. You will need to be technically capable, credible and curious in your own right as a trusted AWS Neuron engineer, innovating on behalf of our customers. You will leverage your technical communications skill as a hands-on partner to AWS ML services teams and you will be involved in pre-silicon design, bringing new products/features to market, and many other exciting projects. A background in machine learning and AI accelerators is preferred, but not required.
AWS Utility Computing (UC) provides product innovations that continue to set AWS’s services and features apart in the industry. As a member of the UC organization, you’ll support the development and management of Compute, Database, Storage, Platform, and Productivity Apps services in AWS, including support for customers who require specialized security solutions for their cloud services. Additionally, this role may involve exposure to and experience with Amazon's growing suite of generative AI services and other cutting-edge cloud computing offerings across the AWS portfolio.
Annapurna Labs (our organization within AWS UC) designs silicon and software that accelerates innovation. Customers choose us to create cloud solutions that solve challenges that were unimaginable a short time ago—even yesterday. Our custom chips, accelerators, and software stacks enable us to take on technical challenges that have never been seen before, and deliver results that help our customers change the world.
