Help Graphcore's Frameworks engineers in Gdańsk build the tools that make our hardware easier to use. Reporting to the Director of Frameworks, you will lead engineers contributing to our PyTorch and Triton teams. You will support their development, clarify priorities and keep feedback flowing across locations. This role blends people leadership with real technical ownership. You will contribute to PyTorch, Triton or related Frameworks work through design, implementation, review, debugging, testing or performance analysis. You will help engineers deliver high-quality work while staying fully connected to their teams. It is a rare chance to shape both software outcomes and engineering culture at a growing site.

The team and culture

Frameworks makes Graphcore hardware work seamlessly with the tools machine learning engineers and researchers use. The team builds PyTorch support, an out-of-tree Triton backend, framework integrations, runtime components, kernels, tests, performance tooling and user documentation. Work happens across locations, so clear writing, shared context and constructive challenge matter. You will help Gdańsk engineers stay close to technical leaders, team priorities and the decisions shaping delivery. People are trusted to take responsibility, speak up and move with purpose. The team values learning, maintainability, performance, ease of use and thoughtful collaboration with open-source communities.

While we have outlined a set of requirements, we value transferable skills and diverse experiences. We also welcome engineers returning to the profession after a career break, including through returnship routes.

We welcome people from all backgrounds and experiences and are committed to building an inclusive environment where everyone can do their best work. We're an equal opportunity employer and recognise that everyone brings different strengths and perspectives. If you need any adjustments during the interview process, just let us know - we're happy to support you.

• Strong software engineering capability, with professional experience in C++ and Python
• Clear written and verbal communication in English and Polish, especially when explaining complex technical context
• Ability to build alignment across teams, locations and disciplines
• Pragmatism when balancing people leadership, hands-on technical contribution, engineering quality and delivery
• Experience with PyTorch, Triton, compiler development, MLIR, LLVM, machine learning kernels or accelerator architectures

Benefits

• Flexible working: Balance your work and personal life with greater flexibility
• Comprehensive healthcare and dental cover: Premium medical and dental insurance, with the option to extend cover to your family
