Job Description
About the Team
The scaling team team builds foundational components that power OpenAIs ML training infrastructure. We focus on developing scalable robust and highperformance systems that maximize the productivity of our researchers and hardware. Our mission is to accelerate progress toward AGI by enabling the fastest iteration cycles and highest throughput for model development at scale.
About the Role
As a software engineer on the Scaling team youll help build and optimize the lowlevel stack that orchestrates computation and data movement across OpenAIs supercomputing clusters. Your work will involve designing highperformance runtimes building custom kernels contributing to compiler infrastructure and developing scalable simulation systems to validate and optimize distributed training workloads.
You will work at the intersection of systems programming ML infrastructure and highperformance computing helping to create both ergonomic developer APIs and highly efficient runtime systems. This means balancing ease of use and introspection with the need for stability and performance on our evolving hardware fleet.
This role is based in San Francisco CA with a hybrid work model 3 days/week inoffice). Relocation assistance is available.
Responsibilities:
Design and build APIs and runtime components to orchestrate computation and data movement across heterogeneous ML workloads.
Contribute to compiler infrastructure including the development of optimizations and compiler passes to support evolving hardware.
Engineer and optimize compute and data kernels ensuring correctness high performance and portability across simulation and production environments.
Profile and optimize system bottlenecks especially around I/O memory hierarchy and interconnects at both local and distributed scales.
Develop simulation infrastructure to validate runtime behaviors test training stack changes and support earlystage hardware and system development.
Rapidly deploy runtime and compiler updates to new supercomputing builds in close collaboration with hardware and research teams.
Work across a diverse stack primarily using Rust and Python with opportunities to influence architecture decisions across the training framework.
You might thrive in this role if you:
Have a deep curiosity for how largescale systems work and enjoy making them faster simpler and more reliable.
Are proficient in systems programming (e.g. Rust C) and scripting languages like Python.
Have experience in one or more of the following areas: compiler development kernel authoring accelerator programming runtime systems distributed systems or highperformance simulation.
Are excited to work in a fastpaced highly collaborative environment with evolving hardware and ML system demands.
Value engineering excellence technical leadership and thoughtful system design.
