Gimlet Labs, San Francisco, CA
As a Member of Technical Staff, you will build and optimize the low-level execution primitives that turn accelerator performance into production inference performance.
Rather than optimizing for one hardware architecture, you will work across accelerators with different execution models, memory hierarchies, capabilities, and software stacks. Your work will shape the latency, throughput, and efficiency Gimlet can achieve across established and emerging hardware architectures.
You will work close to the hardware across kernel implementation, memory access, execution behavior, profiling, and performance validation. You will develop optimizations that account for differences between accelerator architectures and partner with compiler, ML systems, and distributed systems engineers to improve performance across the full execution stack.
