TL, Research Inference

Job description

About the Team The Foundations team focuses on how model behavior changes as we scale models, data, and compute. The team studies the interactions between model architecture, optimization, and training data, and uses those insights to guide how new models are designed and trained. About the Role: In this role, you will build the systems that enable advanced AI models to run efficiently at scale. You will operate at the intersection of model research and systems engineering, translating new architectural ideas into high-performance inference systems that surface real tradeoffs in performance, memory, and scalability. Your work will directly influence how models are designed, evaluated, and iterated on across the research organization. By developing and evolving high-performance inference infrastructure, you will enable researchers to explore new ideas with a clear understanding of their computational and systems implications. This is not a product-serving role. Instead, it is a research-enabling systems role focused on performance, correctness, and realism - ensuring that AI research is grounded in what can actually scale. In this role, you will: Design and build high-performance in...
