About the Role

Build the software that validates Graphcore’s machine learning stack, from frameworks to AI accelerator hardware. Design production-quality test infrastructure that engineers can extend, maintain and rely on as Graphcore’s ML software grows. Architect scalable test frameworks and build CI/CD pipelines that run across simulators, emulators and physical hardware. Create representative ML workloads, analyze their execution and turn the results into practical improvements to testing and tooling. This role gives you scope to shape software architecture and developer experience, not just add tests to existing systems. You’ll deepen your understanding of the AI compute stack while solving engineering problems that connect software design with hardware behaviour.
