# Software Engineer- AI/ML, Amazon Neuron Training

The Annapurna Labs team at Amazon Web Services (AWS) builds AWS Neuron, the software development kit used to accelerate deep learning and GenAI workloads on AWS Trainium, Amazon's custom machine learning accelerator. Neuron includes an ML compiler, runtime, collectives library, and application framework that integrate with PyTorch and JAX, so customers can train frontier-scale models on Trainium without rewriting their stack. The Distributed Training team enables the training of a wide range of models, from large-scale pretraining through post-training and reinforcement learning, on AWS's custom ML accelerators. As more customer workloads shift toward RLHF, PPO/GRPO, and other fine-tuning methods, we are building the distributed training infrastructure, parallelism techniques, numerics, and high-performance kernels that these methods depend on. As part of the broader Neuron organization, we work across frameworks, kernels, compiler, runtime, and collectives - a true hardware and software co-design in practice. We not only optimize current performance but also contribute to future architecture designs, since the gaps we characterize today become requirements for the next generation
