- Prior experience working with cloud computing platforms (e.g. AWS, GCP, Docker, Kubernetes)
- Skilled at writing production-grade Python code
- Hands-on experience in deep learning and machine learning (TensorFlow/PyTorch..)
- Any one of the following:
- Optimization of deep learning model training (E.g. parallelization, megatron, deepspeed, FSDP)
- or -
- Custom kernel experience (C++/CUDA and/or Triton)
- or -
- Distributed Systems, in particular distributed deep learning training/serving
