About the job

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.

• 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

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.

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
• Phantom equity: Share in Graphcore’s success
• Fitness and wellbeing support: A fully funded Medicover gym card, giving you access to a wide range of gyms, fitness classes and leisure centres
