Job Summary

Our vision is to transform how the world uses information to enrich life for all.

Micron Technology is a world leader in innovating memory and storage solutions that accelerate the transformation of information into intelligence inspiring the world to learn communicate and advance faster than ever.

The Smart Manufacturing and AI team builds advanced machine learning GenAI and Agentic AI solutions that directly power Microns manufacturing advantage. We work at the intersection of cuttingedge AI and realworld production systems turning massive data and compute into measurable impact. If you enjoy solving hard problems at scale and seeing your work drive silicon to market this is the team for you!

This role is critical to how we train optimize and deploy largescale AI systems on modern GPU platforms. As a GPU Performance Engineer you will push the limits of multiGPU and distributed training shape nextgeneration AI workloads and partner closely with data scientists engineers and hardware architects. Your work will directly influence performance cost and speed across Microns AIpowered manufacturing stack.

Responsibilities:

  • Architect and complete large-scale custom model training and fine-tuning jobs (SFT RLHF) on multi-node multi-GPU clusters.

  • Optimize training throughput and memory efficiency using distributed training strategies (FSDP DeepSpeed Megatron-LM) and mixed-precision techniques (FP16/BF16).

  • Design and develop autonomous AI Agents capable of multi-step reasoning planning and tool execution to automate complex manufacturing workflows.

  • Analyze and profile complex workloads (e.g. LLM training Rendering pipelines) to identify bottlenecks in compute memory bandwidth and latency.

  • Write and optimize high-performance kernels using CUDA HIP or custom assembly (PTX/SASS) to unlock hardware capabilities.

  • Collaborate with Hardware Architects to define features for next-generation GPUs based on workload characterization.

  • Design and implement performance regression testing suites to catch degradations in drivers or compilers.

  • Mentor engineers who are developing skills in parallel programming paradigms and optimization techniques.

Minimum Qualifications:

  • 10 years of experience with deep expertise in GPU architecture (memory hierarchy tensor cores NVLink) and GPU resource management across cloud and onprem environments along with 5 years in performance optimization parallel computing and lowlevel systems using C and GPGPU frameworks (CUDA preferred; HIP/OpenCL/Metal acceptable).

  • Strong hands-on experience building scalable ML systems including distributed training (DDP FSDP) model parallelism and end-to-end automation of training testing and deployment workflows.

  • Deep proficiency in LLMs including prompt engineering tool/function calling chain-of-thought reasoning fine-tuning with PEFT methods (LoRA QLoRA) and inference optimization using engines like vLLM and TensorRT-LLM.

  • Experience developing GenAI applications and AI agents using frameworks such as LangChain LangGraph LlamaIndex and AutoGen with strong knowledge of ML frameworks (PyTorch required; TensorFlow/scikit-learn a plus).

  • Strong programming in Python (preferred) or Java with experience in CI/CD and cloud-native tools (Git Jenkins Docker Kubernetes); excellent communication skills fast-paced delivery mentality and a Bachelors or Masters degree in Computer Science Statistics or a related field.

Preferred Qualifications:

  • Ph.D. in Computer Science Statistics or related field (or equivalent experience) with strong foundations in mathematics probability statistics and algorithms.

  • Experience with HPC job schedulers (e.g. Slurm) and orchestrating large-scale GPU workloads on Kubernetes using tools such as Ray and Kubeflow.

  • Strong expertise in CUDA programming Triton kernels and developing custom C extensions for PyTorch to optimize and accelerate workloads.

  • Experience designing and coordinating multi-agent systems including collaboration between specialized agents in complex architectures.

  • Proven ability to productionize data science solutions with experience in computer vision and/or signal processing for classification and feature extraction.
