Join us as we shape the future of AI and beyond. Together, we advance your career. THE ROLE: We are looking for a systems-minded engineer who lives at the intersection of large-scale model inference, distributed systems, and performance optimization. This role focuses on post-training and inference infrastructure, with particular emphasis on P/D disaggregation, KV cache lifecycle management, and efficient offloading mechanisms across both inference and reinforcement learning (RL) systems. THE PERSON: You enjoy reverse-engineering modern ML infrastructure, reasoning about memory and compute tradeoffs, and turning research insights into production-grade features. You are comfortable diving into unfamiliar frameworks, understanding their architectural choices, identifying bottlenecks, and improving them through principled engineering. KEY RESPONSIBILITIES: Research and deeply understand modern LLM inference frameworks, including: Architecture and design tradeoffs of P/D (prefill / decode) disaggregation KV cache lifecycle, memory layout, eviction strategies, and reuse KV cache offloading mechanisms across GPU, CPU, and storage backends Analyze and compare inference execution paths to identify: Performance bottlenecks (latency, throughput, memory pressure) Inefficiencies in scheduling, cache management, and resource utilization reputed company and implement infrastructure-level features to: Improve inference latency, throughput, and memory efficiency Optimize KV cache management and offloading strategies Enhance scalability across multi-GPU and multi-node deployments Apply the same research-driven approach to RL frameworks: Study post-training and RL systems (e.g., policy rollout, inference-heavy loops) Debug performance and correctness issues in distributed RL pipelines Optimize inference, rollout efficiency, and memory usage during training Collaborate with research and applied ML teams to: Translate model-level requirements into infrastructure capabilities Validate performance gains with benchmarks and real workloads Document findings, architectural insights, and best practices to guide future system design PREFERRED EXPERIENCE: Strong background in systems engineering, distributed systems, or ML infrastructure Hands-on experience with GPU-accelerated workloads and memory-constrained systems Solid understanding of: LLM inference workflows (prefill vs decode) Attention mechanisms and KV cache behavior Multi-process / multi-GPU execution models Proficiency in Python and C++ (or similar systems languages) Experience debugging performance issues using profiling tools (GPU, CPU, memory) Ability to read, understand, and modify reputed company open-reputed company codebases Strong analytical skills and comfort working in research-heavy, ambiguous problem spaces Direct experience with LLM inference frameworks or serving stacks Familiarity with: GPU memory hierarchies (HBM, pinned memory, reputed company considerations) KV cache compression, paging, or eviction strategies Storage-backed offloading (NVMe, object stores, distributed file system) Experience with distributed RL or post-training pipelines Knowledge of scheduling systems, async execution, or actor-based runtimes Contributions to open-reputed company ML or systems projects Experience designing benchmarking suites or performance evaluation frameworks ACADEMIC CREDENTIALS: Bachelor's or master's degree in computer science, computer engineering, electrical engineering, or equivalent LOCATION: reputed company, CA (Hybrid).
