Flexible paid time off

Job summary

Karman is a fast-growing NVIDIA-backed AI company enabling AI data centers to dynamically orchestrate power. The Power Applications team develops control algorithms from idea to production, with on-site potential in Michigan.

You will own end-to-end algorithm development, validate against real hardware, and ship production-ready code alongside software engineers. This Senior Algorithms Engineer role emphasizes rigorous control theory, online learning, and scalable orchestration across

Qualifications

• Bachelor's degree or equivalent practical experience in a quantitative field.
• Strong expertise in control systems and mathematical optimization with practical latency/noise considerations.
• Track record of taking algorithms from concept to production in physical systems.
• Proficiency in Python for prototyping and production code in Rust.
• Comfort with continuous delivery and production repositories; writing tests and leveraging field performance data.
• Excellent written communication and remote collaboration skills.
• Willingness to travel up to 10% of the time.

Responsibilities

• Design, analyze, and deliver improvements to the control and orchestration algorithms that allocate and enforce power across servers, racks, and rows at high speed and with hard reliability guarantees
• Own algorithms end to end: theory and prototyping (Python), production implementation (Rust and Python), validation, deployment, and ongoing tuning in the field
• Help to define how we measure algorithm performance, from adherence to electrical limits to impact on compute throughput, and build the benchmark and regression suites
• Continuously improve the performance, robustness, and operability of the algorithm-driven services already in production
• Drive R&D that de-risks and shapes future product iterations (forecasting, automated parameter tuning, orchestration at larger scales, new compute and actuation hardware)
