Sail Research, San Francisco
In this role, you'll own token processing down to the lowest layers of the stack. You'll do things like: develop a new request scheduling strategy, achieve better communication/computation overlap, investigate novel schemes for increasing cache hit rates, or identify a better way to benchmark inference performance.
We work out of a beautiful, sunny office in downtown San Francisco. All meals are on us (and actually great; SF is a food paradise!). Everyone gets a Studio Display (or two) at their desk. We are serious about investing in anything that saves us time or energy. There are six different ways to make coffee or tea in the office. A friendly (hypoallergenic) black cat named Coco visits occasionally.
Sail builds the world's most efficient software for inference (processing LLM tokens) and agent hosting (cloud VMs). Together, our technologies allow our customers to deploy AI agents at extreme scale for their most ambitious work.
