Job description

We are building the next generation of compiler technologies to accelerate deep learning workloads. We are looking for an engineer to implement compiler verification software & related infrastructure in the AI space. You will be solving critical problems working alongside a diverse set of minds in GPU computing and systems software, doing what you enjoy. If this sounds like a fun challenge, we want to hear from you.

What you’ll be doing:

  • Develop and maintain components of systems to reason about correctness in deep learning compilers, across graph transformations, IR lowering, and GPU execution.
  • Work with deep learning compiler and architecture teams to analyze and validate optimizations (e.g., graph rewrites in MLIR, fusion passes, mixed-precision transformations), ensuring they preserve semantics and numerical behavior.
  • Implement and extend test generation systems that use deep learning solutions and analysis methods to drive in-depth testing. These systems explore the vast combinatorial space of model topologies, precision modes, and hardware targets.
  • Contribute to improving how we measure functional quality and performance as models, compiler stacks, and hardware continue to evolve.

Requirements

  • BS, MS or PhD in Computer Science, Computer Engineering, Mathematics, or equivalent experience.
  • 2+ years of hands-on software engineering experience, with experience in compiler development, deep learning systems, or compiler verification.
  • Proficiency in Python or C++ and experience with one major DL framework. This could be PyTorch, JAX/XLA, TensorRT, or a similar framework. Experience should involve model execution, graph representation, or runtime behavior.
  • Strong problem-solving and debugging skills - ability to reason about model behavior and compiler-generated code, investigate correctness issues, and collaborate with teammates to resolve edge-case failures.

Ways to stand out from the crowd:

  • Experience with compiler technologies such as LLVM, MLIR, TVM, or XLA, and familiarity with compiler passes, IR semantics, or correctness testing.
  • Exposure to formal methods or language specification: type systems, program semantics, or proof-based verification.
  • Experience with DL model internals such as quantization, operator fusion, mixed-precision, or graph-level optimization.

Benefits & conditions

Your base salary will be determined based on your location, experience, and other objective job-related factors. The expected base salary range for this position is 116,000 USD - 189,750 USD.
