📋 Description

• Design platform architecture for multi-tenant inference workloads across serving, orchestration, control plane, APIs, SDKs, observability, and model-engine integration. • Develop robust API layers (gRPC, WebSockets, REST, etc.) and developer SDKs that abstract complex distributed inference orchestration into seamless, reliable token streams. • Build and harden a multi-tenant control plane to enable accurate metering, rate limiting, quotas, tenant isolation and noisy-neighbor fairness across the platform. • Optimize inference performance across the entire system stack, including the model engine layer. • Build observability and SLOs to gain insights into system economics, cache-hit rates, GPU utilization and cost accounting per model and per tenant. • Partner with product and infrastructure teams on model onboarding, capacity planning, external API contracts and customer adoption. • Promote Engineering Excellence: Maintain a high bar for engineering excellence in their own work but also set a culture of engineering excellence within the team.

🎯 Requirements

• Education: Bachelor’s or Master’s degree in Computer Science, Engineering, or a related field. • Experience: 7+ years of experience building and operating backend distributed systems end to end. • Demonstrated cross-team technical leadership in backend distributed systems, ML infrastructure, inference serving, or high-performance compute platforms. • Strong Data & ML systems fundamentals: data-intensive distributed systems, concurrency, networking and performance profiling. • Hands-on experience running large-scale inference services on GPUs, including KV caches, prefill/decode stages and throughput/latency trade-offs. • Direct experience with inference engines (TensorRT, vLLM, etc) or serving frameworks (Dynamo, Triton or equivalent). • Technical Skills: • Strong programming skills in C++, Go, Rust or Python. • Familiarity with deep learning frameworks (PyTorch, etc.) as well as model parallelism. • Familiarity with GPU computing primitives such as CUDA, NCCL, NVLink, and hardware-specific optimizations. • Practical understanding of high-performance networking architectures, including InfiniBand, RoCE, and low-latency cluster communication. • Communication: Excellent verbal and written communication skills, with the ability to convey complex technical concepts to non-technical stakeholders. • Autonomous vehicles (AV) experience is a bonus.
