Partner with product, design, and data science to ensure engineers contribute across disciplines and deliver outcomes that move business metrics forward
Set clear goals and expectations for individual engineers, provide timely and actionable feedback, and proactively address performance gaps
Manage staged rollouts and feature delivery using feature flagging and A/B testing frameworks, ensuring high engineering quality and system reliability
Recruit, onboard, and develop engineers, building a team structure that minimizes single points of failure and scales with organizational needs
Communicate team goals, technical decisions, and progress clearly to cross-functional partners and leadership, including written design proposals and postmortems
Participate in org-wide engineering contributions, sharing effective workflows, tooling practices, and systems engineering patterns across the broader organization
Minimum Qualifications
4+ years of experience in software engineering with a focus on systems-level software, platform infrastructure, or distributed systems
2+ years of experience managing or leading engineering teams, including setting technical direction and supporting engineer growth
Experience driving technical roadmaps and executing against them with measurable outcomes in ambiguous or high-complexity environments
Experience identifying and resolving engineering efficiency issues such as on-call burden, technical debt, or gaps in automation
Experience collaborating across product, design, and data functions to deliver software that achieves business and user impact
Preferred Qualifications
Track record of hands-on technical contribution as a manager, including authoring design documents, reviewing system architectures, or writing production code
Experience with hardware/software co-design cycles: collaborating with silicon architects, validating architectural features with real kernels, and influencing hardware roadmaps based on software performance analysis
Experience working on customized AI accelerators (TPU, AI ASICs, or similar non-GPU architectures) with direct involvement in kernel development and roofline enablement
Familiarity with transformer and attention kernel design: FlashAttention-class algorithms, KV-cache management, paged and chunked attention, MoE routing and expert dispatch
Experience with distributed execution and collective communication (NCCL/RCCL-class primitives, tensor and expert parallelism, overlapping communication with compute)
Demonstrated ongoing AI skill development (e.g., prompt/context engineering, agent orchestration) and staying current with emerging AI technologies
Experience managing or leading teams working on high-performance kernel development, accelerator software, HPC, or ML systems performance
Hands-on experience with kernel development for novel hardware — including pre-silicon bring-up on simulators/emulators and first-light optimization on new silicon
Experience building or contributing to high-performance kernel libraries or frameworks — CUTLASS, cuBLAS, cuDNN, Triton, Helion, oneDNN, Composable Kernel, or comparable internal equivalents
Demonstrated ability to integrate AI tools to optimize/redesign workflows and drive measurable impact (e.g., efficiency gains, quality improvements)
Experience with compiler and codegen technologies relevant to kernels: MLIR, LLVM, TVM, XLA, Halide, or polyhedral scheduling
Experience with low-precision numerics and quantization — FP8/E4M3/E5M2, MX and other block-scaled formats, INT8/INT4 — including error analysis and calibration
Experience adhering to and implementing responsible, ethical AI practices (e.g., risk assessment, bias mitigation, quality and accuracy reviews)
