ML Infrastructure Engineer, Training

Join us to shape the next frontier of AI-driven robotics!

Dyna Robotics makes general-purpose robots powered by a proprietary embodied AI foundation model that generalizes and self-improves across varied environments with commercial-grade performance. Dyna's robots have been deployed at customers across multiple industries. Its frontier model has the top generalization and performance in the industry.

Dyna Robotics was founded by repeat founders Lindon Gao and York Yang, who sold Caper AI for $350 million, and former Deep Mind research scientist Jason Ma. The company has raised over $140M, backed by top investors, including CRV and First Round. We're positioned to redefine the landscape of robotic automation.

As a ML Training Infrastructure Engineer, you will architect and build the systems that turn our multi-cloud GPU fleet into a training engine our researchers love. Your charter is singular and broad: own training infrastructure end-to-end so that every GPU is busy, every run is reproducible, and every researcher's next experiment is one command away.

• Scale Distributed Training: Architect and own the infrastructure for large-scale GPU clusters. You’ll implement sharding, activation checkpointing, and memory optimization (ZeRO, FSDP) to enable the training of massive multimodal models.
• Optimize Researcher Ergonomics: Build a research codebase and job scheduling system (Kubernetes/SLURM) that prioritizes fast iteration, automated retries, and seamless failure recovery.
• High-Performance Data Handling: Design high-throughput pipelines to ingest and transform terabytes of multimodal robot data (video, proprioception, 3D signals), ensuring data loaders never starve the GPUs.
• Production Inference: Build low-latency inference pipelines for real-time robot control. You’ll apply quantization, distillation, and model compilation (TensorRT, Triton) to move models from the lab to the physical world.
• Deep Systems Profiling: Dive into the weeds of GPU utilization, I/O bottlenecks, and memory fragmentation to squeeze every bit of performance out of our expanding compute fleet.

• 7+ Years of Engineering: With a track record of leading technical projects in high-performance computing (HPC) or ML infrastructure.
• ML Systems Mastery: Deep experience with PyTorch and distributed training frameworks (Deep Speed, Accelerate). You understand the nuances of mixed precision and gradient accumulation.
• Infrastructure Expertise: Hands-on experience managing cloud GPU environments (GCP/AWS) and container orchestration (Kubernetes).
• Low-Level Intuition: A fundamental understanding of distributed systems, including race conditions, memory management, and NCCL/inter-node communication.
• Ownership Mindset: You don't just "deploy" code; you design, build, and operate systems end-to-end to unblock fast-moving research.

• Experience with Robotics Data Formats (MCAP, Protobuf) or multimodal models (VLAs).
• Deep ML systems experience: custom kernels (Triton), compilers, or runtime optimization.
• Experience as a founding or early-stage infrastructure hire.

Dyna Robotics
, we build technology for the real world, which requires a team as diverse as the environments our robots inhabit. We are an equal opportunity employer committed to technical rigor and mutual respect.

Don’t let a checklist stop you. Data shows that underrepresented groups often only apply if they meet 100% of the criteria. We value problem-solving and grit over keyword matching. If you’re passionate about the intersection of geometry and robotics, we want to hear from you—even if you don't check every box.
