THE ROLE:
As a core member of the team, you will play a pivotal role in optimizingand developing deep learning frameworks for AMD GPUs. Your experience will be critical in enhancing GPU kernels, deep learning models, and training/inference performance across multi-GPU and multi-node systems. You will engage with both internal GPU library teams and open-source maintainers to ensure seamless integration of optimizations, utilizingcutting-edgecompiler technologies and advanced engineering principles to drive continuous improvement.
THE PERSON:
Skilled engineer with strong technical and analytical expertisein C++ development within Linux environments. The ideal candidate will thrive in both collaborative team settings and independent work, with the ability to define goals, manage development efforts, and deliver high-quality solutions. Strong problem-solving skills, a proactive approach, and a keen understanding of software engineering best practices are essential.
KEY RESPONSIBILITIES:
- End to end optimization: Build and optimizeend to enddistributed inference (e.g, P/D disaggregationand Large-EP)and RLsolutions on mainstream frameworks like vLLMand SGlang.
- Collaborate with GPU Library Teams: Work closely with internal teams to analyze and improve training and inference performance on AMD GPUs.
- Collaborate with Open-Source Maintainers: Engage with framework maintainers to ensure code changes are aligned with requirements and integrated upstream.
- Work in Distributed Computing Environments: Optimizedeep learning performance on both scale-up (multi-GPU) and scale-out (multi-node) systems.
- Utilize Cutting-Edge Compiler Tech: Leverageadvanced compiler technologies to improve deep learning performance.
- OptimizeDeep Learning Pipeline: Enhance the full pipeline, including integrating graph compilers.
- Software Engineering Best Practices: Apply sound engineering principles to ensure robust, maintainable solutions.
PREFERRED EXPERIENCE:
- GPU Kernel Development & Optimization: Experiencedin designing and optimizingGPU kernels for deep learning on AMD GPUs using HIP, CUDA, and assembly (ASM). Strong knowledge of AMD architectures (GCN, RDNA) and low-level programming to maximize performance for AI operations, leveragingtools like Compute Kernel (CK), CUTLASS, and Triton for multi-GPU and multi-platform performance.
- Deep Learning Integration: Experienced inintegrating optimized GPU performance into machine learningand LLMframeworks (e.g., vLLM, SGlang,TensorFlow, PyTorch) to accelerate model training and inference, with a focus on scaling and throughput.
- End to endsolution optimization: Understood the latest market trendof LLMand multimodal, solid hands-on E2E performance tuning experience on distributed inference (e.g, P/D disaggregationand Large-EP)and RL. Experiencedin Text to Videoor Image to Video is a plus.
- Software Engineering: Skilledin Python and C++, with experience in debugging, performance tuning, and test design to ensure high-quality, maintainable software solutions.
- High-Performance Computing: Solid experiencedin running large-scale workloads on heterogeneous computingclusters, optimizingefficiency and scalability.
- Compiler Optimization: Foundationalunderstanding of compiler theory and tools like LLVM and ROCmfor kernel and system performance optimization.
ACADEMIC CREDENTIALS:
- Bachelor’s and/or Master’s in Computer Science, Computer Engineering, Electrical Engineering, or related fields.
- Professional experience in technical software development, with a focus on GPU optimization, performance engineering, and framework development.
