Performance Engineer, Inference

Part of Sarvam's Performance Engineering team. We are hiring two specialized performance roles - Inference (this posting) and Kernels (companion posting). They are a vertical stack: the kernels team authors the µs-level GPU code, and the inference team integrates it into a running serving stack and owns the system-level numbers. If your depth genuinely spans both, apply to either and tell us - but most candidates are strongest in one, and we hire for that depth.

Location: [Bengaluru / Chennai / Hybrid / On-site] · Team: Performance Engineering · Level: Senior

You will own Sarvam's production serving path for large distributed models end to end. You should be source-level fluent in at least one of SGLang, vLLM, NVIDIA Dynamo, or TensorRT-LLM - able to read and modify it where stock behavior does not fit our workloads - and you should operate and extend a distributed-serving stack at depth: disaggregated prefill-decode across nodes, distributed KV/cache transfer, and the routing and scheduling that span them.
