Lead C++ Developer

Open 58d posting dated 5 days ago

Summary

Lead the optimization of C++ kernels for TPU/GPU hardware to accelerate ML training and inference, working with JAX/PyTorch and low-level kernel languages like Triton.

We are seeking a talented Lead C++ Developer to join the highly interdisciplinary CoreML team, where you will drive the performance and optimization of both training and serving, delivering massive impact for customers. In this role, you will have exposure to the newest Tensor Processing Unit (TPU), Graphics Processing Unit (GPU) hardware, the latest ML models, and the advanced toolchains that bridge them. Your work will directly enable AI research, production deployments and the broader open-source ecosystem, addressing complex technical issues that directly impact the efficiency and scalability of AI across the industry.

Responsibilities

  • Design and optimize high-performance kernels (using languages like Pallas, Mosaic and Triton) targeting Tensor Processing Unit (TPU) and Graphics Processing Unit (GPU) architectures for critical Machine Learning (ML) operations, redefining what's possible from massive training runs to high-speed inference
  • Architecture of infrastructure such as benchmarking suites, autotuning frameworks, performance analysis tools, regression testing and documentation, transforming how the developer community interacts with increasingly critical custom kernels in key Open-Source Software (OSS) libraries
  • Track the latest advancements in hardware architectures, compiler technologies and AI models to identify new opportunities for performance optimization through custom kernels
  • Engagement with ML researchers, framework developers (Just After eXecution (JAX), PyTorch) and compiler engineers (Accelerated Linear Algebra (XLA)) to enhance adoption, identify new requirements and address bottlenecks by providing appropriate solutions

Requirements

  • Bachelor's degree or equivalent practical experience
  • Overall 7+ years of industry experience
  • 5 years of experience with software development in C++ or Python
  • 3 years of experience testing, maintaining or launching software products, and 1 year of experience with software design and architecture
  • Expertise in performance optimization at the kernel level
  • English proficiency at B2 level or higher

Nice to have

  • Skills in optimizing TPU/GPU code, using low-level kernel languages like Pallas, Compute Unified Device Architecture (CUDA) or Triton
  • Knowledge of ML Frameworks (JAX/PyTorch), common operations like attention and Mixture of Experts (MoEs), including model optimization and low-precision formats
  • Understanding of modern accelerators (e.g., data movement, pipelining, heterogeneous compute and scale-out)
  • Understanding of compiler principles (optimization, code generation) and toolchains such as MLIR and OpenXLA
  • Showcase of building developer infrastructure, including Open-Source Software (OSS) libraries, flexible high-performance APIs and easy-to-consume documentation to empower the community

Benefits

We gather like-minded people:

  • Top tech minds driving innovation in AI, cloud and digital platform modernization
  • Supportive team and agile, startup-like culture
  • Hybrid by design mode and opportunity to work remotely within Poland
  • Chance to work abroad for up to 60 days annually
  • Business-driven relocation opportunities

We provide growth opportunities:

  • Career development programs
  • Thought leadership, mentoring, soft skills and well-being programs
  • Certification (Anthropic, Gemini, GCP, Azure, AWS)
  • English classes

We cover it all:

  • Stable pay
  • Participation in the Employee Stock Purchase Plan with a 15% discount
  • Benefits package (health insurance, multisport, shopping vouchers)
  • Referral bonuses up to $2,000
  • Offices featuring entertainment and relaxation zones, table tennis and football, free snacks, coffee and more
  • Corporate, social and well-being events

Please, note:

  • Benefits listed above are available to employees only
  • We are open for working with Contractors. Terms of B2B cooperation agreements are agreed individually
  • We will reach out to selected candidates exclusively
