Job Summary
About HeyGen
At HeyGen our mission is to make visual storytelling accessible to all. Over the last decade visual content has become the preferred method of information creation consumption and retention. But the ability to create such content in particular videos continues to be costly and challenging to scale. Our ambition is to build technology that equips more people with the power to reach captivate and inspire audiences.

We are seeking a seasoned Technical Leader to build and scale the foundational compute infrastructure that powers our state-of-the-art AI modelsfrom multimodal training data pipelines to high-throughput low-latency video generation.
Responsibilities
You will be the core engineer responsible for building the robust efficient and scalable platform that enables our research and production teams to rapidly iterate on HeyGens generative video models. Your contributions will directly impact model performance developer productivity and the final quality of every AI-generated video.
Optimize GPU Utilization: Design and implement mechanisms to aggressively optimize GPU and cluster utilization across thousands of devices for inference training data processing and large-scale deployment of our state-of-art video generation models.
Develop Large-Scale AI Job Framework: Build highly scalable reliable frameworks for launching and managing massive heterogeneous compute jobs including multi-modal high-volume data ingestion/processing distributed model training and continuous evaluation/benchmarking.
Enhance Observability: Develop world-class observability tracing and visualization tools for our compute cluster to ensure reliability diagnose performance bottlenecks (e.g. memory bandwidth communication).
Accelerate Pipelines: Collaborate closely with AI researchers and AI engineers to integrate innovative acceleration techniques (e.g. custom CUDA kernels distributed training libraries) into production-ready scalable training and inference pipelines.
Infrastructure Management: Champion the adoption and optimization of modern cloud and container technologies (Kubernetes Ray) for elastic cost-efficient scaling of our distributed systems.
Minimum Requirements
We are looking for a highly motivated engineer with deep experience operating and optimizing AI infrastructure at scale.
Bachelors degree in Computer Science Engineering or a related field or equivalent practical experience.
5 years of full-time industry experience in large-scale MLOps AI infrastructure or HPC systems.
Experience with data frameworks and standards like Ray Apache Spark LanceDB
Strong proficiency in Python and a high-performance language such as C for developing core infrastructure components.
Deep understanding and hands-on experience with modern orchestration and distributed computing frameworks such as Kubernetes and Ray.
Experience with core ML frameworks such as PyTorch TensorFlow or JAX.
Preferred Qualifications
Masters or PhD in Computer Science or a related technical field.
Demonstrated Tech Lead experience driving projects from conceptual design through to production deployment across cross-functional teams.
Prior experience building infrastructure specifically for Generative AI models (e.g. diffusion models GANs or large language models) where cost and latency are critical.
Proven background in building and operating large-scale data infrastructure (e.g. Ray Apache Spark) to manage petabytes of multi-modal data (video audio text).
- Expertise in GPU acceleration and deep familiarity with low-level compute programming including CUDA NCCL or similar technologies for efficient inter-GPU communication.
