Descrizione del lavoro

Sr. Software Engineer- AI/ML, AWS Neuron Distributed Training

Annapurna Labs designs silicon and software that accelerates innovation. Customers choose us to create cloud solutions that solve challenges that were unimaginable a short time ago—even yesterday. Our custom chips, accelerators, and software stacks enable us to take on technical challenges that have never been seen before, and deliver results that help our customers change the world.

AWS Neuron is the complete software stack for the AWS Trainium (Trn1/Trn2) and Inferentia (Inf1/Inf2) our cloud‑scale Machine Learning accelerators. This role is for a Senior Machine Learning Engineer in the Distributed Training team for AWS Neuron, responsible for development, enablement and performance tuning of a wide variety of ML model families, including massive‑scale Large Language Models (LLM) such as GPT and Llama, as well as Stable Diffusion, Vision Transformers (ViT) and many more.

The ML Distributed Training team works side by side with chip architects, compiler engineers and runtime engineers to create, build and tune distributed training solutions with Trainium instances. Experience with training these large models using Python is a must. FSDP (Fully‑Sharded Data Parallel), Deepspeed, Nemo and other distributed training libraries are central to this and extending all of this for the Neuron based system is key.

Key job responsibilities

• Build distributed training support into PyTorch and JAX using XLA, the Neuron compiler, and runtime stacks.
• Optimize models to achieve peak performance and maximize efficiency on AWS custom silicon, including Trainium and Inferentia, as well as Trn2, Trn1, Inf1, and Inf2 servers.
• Apply strong software development skills, deep‑dive abilities, cross‑functional team collaboration, and a solid foundation in Machine Learning.

About the team

Annapurna Labs was a startup company acquired by AWS in 2015, and is now fully integrated. If AWS is an infrastructure company, then think Annapurna Labs as the infrastructure provider of AWS.

AWS Nitro, ENA, EFA, Graviton and F1 EC2 Instances, AWS Neuron, Inferentia and Trainium ML Accelerators, and in storage with scalable NVMe, are some of the products we have delivered, over the last few years. Our team is dedicated to supporting new members. We have a broad mix of experience levels and tenures, and we’re building an environment that celebrates knowledge‑sharing and mentorship. Our senior members enjoy one‑on‑one mentoring and thorough, but kind, code reviews. We care about your career growth and strive to assign projects that help your engineering expertise so you feel empowered to take on more complex tasks in the future.

Basic Qualifications

• Bachelor's degree in computer science or equivalent
• 5+ years of non‑internship professional software development experience
• 5+ years of programming with at least one software programming language experience
• 5+ years of leading design or architecture (design patterns, reliability and scaling) of new and existing systems experience
• 5+ years of full software development life cycle, including coding standards, code reviews, source control management, build processes, testing, and operations experience
• Experience as a mentor, tech lead or leading an engineering team
• Experience in machine learning, data mining, information retrieval, statistics or natural language processing

Preferred Qualifications

• Master's degree in computer science or equivalent
• Experience in computer architecture
• Previous software engineering expertise with Pytorch/Jax/Tensorflow, Distributed libraries and Frameworks, End‑to‑end Model Training.
