OpenAI의 하드웨어 팀에서 AI 가속기와 소프트웨어/하드웨어 공동 설계를 담당할 엔지니어를 찾습니다. 4년 이상의 경력과 CUDA/Triton 활용 능력, 컴퓨터 아키텍처에 대한 깊은 이해가 필수입니다. 대규모 AI 모델의 효율적인 학습과 추론을 위해 하드웨어 파트너와 협력하며 최적의 성능을 이끌어내는 핵심 역할을 수행하게 됩니다.
OpenAI’s Hardware organization develops silicon and system-level solutions designed for the unique demands of advanced AI workloads. The team is responsible for building the next generation of AI-native silicon while working closely with software and research partners to co-design hardware tightly integrated with AI models. In addition to delivering production-grade silicon for OpenAI’s supercomputing infrastructure, the team also creates custom design tools and methodologies that accelerate innovation and enable hardware optimized specifically for AI.
As an Engineer on our hardware optimization and co-design team, you will co-design future hardware from different vendors for programmability and performance. You will work with our kernel, compiler and machine learning engineers to understand their unique needs related to ML techniques, algorithms, numerical approximations, programming expressivity, and compiler optimizations. You will evangelize these constraints with various vendors to develop and influence future hardware architectures towards efficient training and inference on our models. If you are excited about efficiently distributing a large language model across devices, dealing with and optimizing system-wide/rack-wide networking bottlenecks and eventually tailoring the compute pipe and memory hierarchy of the hardware platform, simulating workloads at different abstractions and working closely with our partners, this is the perfect opportunity!
This role is based in San Francisco, CA. We use a hybrid work model of 3 days in the office per week and offer relocation assistance to new employees.
Co-design future hardware for programmability and performance with our hardware vendors
Assist hardware vendors in developing optimal kernels and add support for it in our compiler
Develop performance estimates for critical kernels for different hardware configurations and drive decisions on compute core and memory hierarchy features
Build system performance models at different abstraction levels and carry out analysis to drive decisions on scale up, scale out, front end networking
Work with machine learning engineers, kernel engineers and compiler developers to understand their vision and needs from high performance accelerators
Manage communication and coordination with internal and external partners
Influence the roadmap of hardware partners to optimize them for OpenAI’s workloads.
Evaluate potential partners’ accelerators and platforms.
As the scope of the role and team grows, understand and influence roadmaps for hardware partners for our datacenter networks, racks, and buildings.
4+ years of industry experience, including experience harnessing compute at scale and optimizing ML platform code to run efficiently on target hardware.
Strong experience in software/hardware co-design
Deep understanding of GPU and/or other AI accelerators
Experience with CUDA, Triton or a related accelerator programming language
Experience driving Machine Learning accuracy with low precision formats
Experience with system performance modeling and analysis to optimize ML model deployment
Strong coding skills in C/C++ and Python
Are familiar with the fundamentals of deep learning computing and chip architecture/microarchitecture.
Able to actively collaborate with ML engineers, kernel writers, compiler developers, system engineers, chip architects/microarchitects
PhD in Computer Science and Engineering with a specialization in Computer Architecture, Parallel Computing. Compilers or other Systems
Strong understanding of LLMs and challenges related to their training and inference
