[Hiring] Neural Network Optimization Engineer @untether

Nov 15, 2024 - untether is hiring a remote Neural Network Optimization Engineer. 📍Location: USA, Canada.

Untether AI is building the world’s highest performance pure-digital AI inference chip. We’re a rapidly growing Toronto-based startup, with employees across Canada and the US, building next generation hardware AI accelerators for neural net inference. We are investing in software in a big way in order to make it as seamless as possible for researchers and developers to successfully deploy neural networks on our hardware.

We’re looking for best in class engineers to join our existing top-notch team. When you join Untether AI, you will be part of a team that designs, develops and verifies the software that interacts with our chip, collaborating with our hardware engineers and with fellow software engineers in the process. By creating software that fully realizes the capabilities of the hardware, you will help get AI inference to the general populace.

As part of this exceptional team, you are able to - and get excited by - identifying functional/performance bottlenecks and how to alleviate them in order to achieve scalable and reliable software. You excel in an environment with complex software and hardware designs.

The Neural Network Optimization Engineer addresses the design, development and optimization of leading edge neural networks for our customers. The role requires hands-on development of neural networks, involves working with a cross-functional team of engineers that are focused on customers, and acts as a conduit between our customers and our software and hardware teams. By using and/or developing our software tools (kernel support, physical allocation placement, etc.), in particular for customer neural nets that require functionality/performance beyond what's available in our standard software releases, they ensure the most effective use of our technology by our customers.

The Neural Network Optimization Engineer understands our products, technology and applications and is an expert in developing neural networks for the world’s highest performance AI accelerator chips. They will diagnose and address the challenges of real-world uses, resolve them and escalate to appropriate teams as needed. They will also provide useful feedback from these experiences to our engineering teams to improve existing products and to the CTO/architecture team for input on next gen products.
