About the Role
We are seeking a hands-on machine learning systems engineer to optimize production-grade large language model inference across current and next-generation AWS Trainium platforms, including Trainium2 and Trainium3. The work focuses on decode latency, throughput under representative load, price-performance, long-context and multi-chip scaling, and reproducible benchmarking against leading GPU platforms.
Responsibilities
- Improve decode latency, throughput, and cost on AWS Trainium platforms, validating correctness at every step.
- Design and run matched, reproducible tests against leading GPU platforms, controlling prompts, concurrency, cache state, and warm-up.
- Benchmark and migrate workloads across Trainium generations, including Trainium2 and Trainium3.
- Scale serving on multi-chip Trainium systems for long-context workloads, including contexts of 100K tokens or more, and apply architecture-specific optimizations.
- Extend model coverage by onboarding additional architectures, including hybrid state-space and mixture-of-experts models.
- Create runbooks, implementation guides, and benchmark documentation, and support hands-on workshops.
Requirements
- 5+ years of experience in machine learning or systems engineering, including 2+ years focused on production model inference or serving.
- Strong proficiency in Python and PyTorch, with the ability to read and modify model implementations involving attention, mixture-of-experts routing, and KV-cache management.
- Hands-on experience with an LLM serving framework such as vLLM, TensorRT-LLM, SGLang, or Triton Inference Server.
- Deep understanding of LLM inference performance, including prefill and decode, continuous batching, tensor and expert parallelism, and their impact on latency, throughput, and cost.
- Experience profiling and optimizing accelerator workloads at the framework, compiler, or kernel level, and designing rigorous performance experiments.
- Strong written and verbal communication skills, with the ability to explain engineering trade-offs to technical audiences and business impact to senior stakeholders.
