Job description
At the heart of AWS Machine Learning servers reside our custom Amazon-designed silicon that powers next-generation machine learning capabilities for our customers. We're seeking an experienced C/C++ engineer to join our embedded software team, where you'll develop bare metal firmware that drives neural network model execution across our custom ASIC-based ML Accelerator chips.
Working at the intersection of hardware and software, you'll collaborate closely with our architecture and design teams to design and implement firmware and custom hardware that enables machine learning within our accelerator chips. Our mission is ambitious: to democratize access to industry-leading ML infrastructure and make deep learning capabilities accessible to everyday software developers. From the ground up, you'll help design and build the foundation that makes this vision possible.
the Annapurna Labs team operates with the agility and culture of a startup, but with the full weight of Amazon behind us and we invite you visit the link below for a glimpse inside our labs to see exactly the incredible technology and people you will work with at Annapurna Labs!
