    • Design and implement model scaling, parallelization, and memory optimization techniques for training workloads with very large context sizes

    • Collaborate closely with ML Researchers to diagnose architectural inefficiencies, ensure new research ideas scale efficiently in practice, and spread internal knowledge about model efficiency and optimization

    • Drive the productionization and serving of our models from the research side, including improving inference efficiency through techniques such as quantization

    Must have

    • Strong understanding of modern ML architectures and large-scale training pipelines

    • Experience running distributed training jobs on multi-GPU systems

    • Advanced profiling and debugging skills across CPU, GPU, memory usage, latency, and inter-GPU communication
