Position: Software Engineer, Systems ML - Compilers / Backend

Summary

We are seeking a software engineer to support the development of the compiler tool‑chain for state‑of‑the‑art deep learning hardware components optimized for AR/VR systems. You will be part of our efforts to architect, design and implement a clean‑slate compiler for this activity and will be part of a team that includes compiler, machine learning algorithms and software, firmware and ASIC experts.

You will contribute to a full‑stack development effort compiling PyTorch models down to binaries for custom hardware accelerator blocks.

Required Skills
  • Analyze and design effective compiler passes and optimizations. Implement and/or enhance code generation targeting machine learning accelerators
  • Work with algorithm research teams to map ML graphs to hardware implementations, model data‑flows, create cost‑benefit analysis and estimate silicon power and performance
  • Work with hardware architects to co‑design hardware features that maximize performance, power efficiency and programmability
  • Contribute to the development of machine‑learning libraries, intermediate representations, export formats, and analysis tools
  • Analyze and improve the efficiency, scalability, and stability of our tool chains. Optimize and tune kernels and compiled code to achieve latency targets for ML inference
  • Conduct design and code reviews. Evaluate code performance, debug, diagnose and drive resolution of compiler and cross‑disciplinary system issues
  • Interface with other compiler‑focused teams to evaluate and incorporate their innovations and vice versa
  • Minimum Qualifications
  • Bachelor's degree in Computer Science, Computer Engineering, relevant technical field, or equivalent practical experience
  • 2+ years experience developing compilers, tool chains, runtime, or similar code optimization software
  • Experience in software design and programming experience in Python and/or C/C++ for development, debugging, testing and performance analysis
  • Experience in AI framework development or accelerating models on hardware architectures (GPU, TPU, custom AI ASICs)
  • Preferred Qualifications
  • Experience working and communicating cross functionally in a team environment
  • Experience with machine‑code generation or compiler back‑ends for on‑device inference workloads
  • Experience working on and contributing to an active compiler toolchain codebase, such as LLVM, MLIR, GCC, MSVC, Glow
  • Experience in deep learning algorithms and techniques, e.g., convolutional neural networks, recurrent networks, etc.
  • Experience developing high‑performance kernels or runtime components and tuning them for inference specific accelerator platforms
  • Experience of developing in a mainstream machine‑learning framework, e.g. PyTorch, MLIR, Tensorflow or Caffe
  • Public Compensation

    $74.04/hour to $217,000/year + bonus + equity + benefits
