# Machine Learning Systems Engineer

About Us At Archetype AI, we’re building the world’s first physical AI platform to bring artificial intelligence into the real world. Our foundation model, Newton, understands the physical world through objective sensor data and generates real-time insights into complex physical behaviors, from industrial machinery and systems to wearable devices and smart environments. Formed by a high-caliber team from Google and backed by one of Silicon Valley’s most renowned venture funds, Archetype AI is at Series A and rapidly advancing its technology for the next big leap. This is a unique opportunity to join an exciting, fast-growing AI team based in the heart of Silicon Valley. About the Role You will own the serving path for Newton and related multimodal models. Much of our inference stack is Rust-native: model nodes in our agent runtime, built on Rust ML stacks (candle, Burn) with custom GPU kernels, plus the routing layer that streams real-time inference to GPU nodes. You will drive GPU utilization, numerical precision, and low-latency serving from the kernel up. What You’ll Own Build and own model nodes in our Rust inference runtime: loading, warmup, batching, streaming, GPU memory poo
