Company Description

Our client is a fast-growing, venture-backed infrastructure startup building cutting-edge GPU virtualization technology. Their platform powers next-generation compute workloads by enabling dramatically higher GPU utilization, efficiency, and throughput—supporting both internal GPU cloud operations and external enterprise customers.

This is an opportunity to join a deeply technical founding team that moves fast, ships aggressively, and is building software at the bleeding edge of distributed GPU systems, performance engineering, and large-scale ML infrastructure.

• Build and optimize core components of a high-performance C++ GPU virtualization library.
• Drive performance tuning across latency-sensitive and throughput-critical code paths.
• Conduct research into oversubscription, checkpointing, GPU sharing, and distributed GPU cluster scheduling.
• Support new GPU architectures and ensure seamless integration across the system.
• Debug complex systems-level issues in production environments.
• Diagnose performance bottlenecks in machine learning and model-training workloads.
• Collaborate closely with a senior, fast-moving engineering team to scale the platform for rapid customer growth.
