Runtime/Driver Software Development Engineer, Neuron Runtime

Runtime/Driver Software Development Engineer, Neuron Runtime

At AWS AI, our vision is to make deep learning pervasive for everyday developers and to democratize access to cutting-edge infrastructure. To deliver on that vision, we’ve created innovative software and hardware solutions that make it possible.

AWS Neuron SDK is the complete software stack for the AWS Inferentia and Trainium machine learning accelerators designed by Annapurna Labs inside AWS. The Neuron SDK consists of a compiler, runtime, frameworks, and tooling customers need. It’s also preinstalled in AWS Deep Learning AMIs and Deep Learning Containers for customers to quickly get started with running high-performance and cost-effective inference and training.

This position is for a Software Engineer for the AWS Neuron SDK team with a deep background in Linux and device drivers. Deep knowledge and experience with hardware-based accelerator platforms (such as encryption, TCP offload, storage accelerators, and router/switch platforms) and the necessary complexity for the software layers that interact and manage them are required. Experience implementing high-performance software drivers is also a necessity. This engineer will work with the team to define the key interfaces and will develop the runtime stack and driver that manages the accelerator.

This is a fast-paced, intellectually challenging position where you’ll work with thought-leaders in multiple technology areas. You’ll have high standards for yourself and everyone you work with, and you’ll be constantly looking for ways to improve our products' performance, quality, and cost.

We’re changing an industry, and we want individuals who are ready for this challenge and want to reach beyond what is possible today.

Minimum Qualifications:

1. 3+ years of non-internship professional software development experience

3. Experience programming with at least one software programming language
4. 3+ years of full software development life cycle, including coding standards, code reviews, source control management, build processes, testing, and operations experience
5. Bachelor's degree in computer science or equivalent
