Software Development Manager - Compiler, AWS Neuron, Annapurna Labs

The Product: AWS Machine Learning accelerators are at the forefront of AWS innovation. The Inferentia chip delivers best-in-class ML inference performance at the lowest cost in cloud. Trainium will deliver the best-in-class ML training performance with the most teraflops (TFLOPS) of compute power for ML in the cloud. This is all enabled by edge software stack, the AWS Neuron Software Development Kit (SDK), which includes an ML compiler, Neuron Kernel Interface (NKI) compiler, and runtime that natively integrates into popular ML frameworks, such as PyTorch and TensorFlow. Neuron Kernel Interface (NKI) is a bare-metal language and compiler for directly programming NeuronDevices available on AWS Trn/Inf instances. You can use NKI to develop, optimize and run new operators directly on NeuronCores while making full use of available compute and memory resources.AWS Neuron and Inferentia are used at scale with customers and partners like PyTorch, Epic Games, Snap, AirBnB, Autodesk, Amazon Alexa, Amazon Rekognition and more customers in various other segments.The Team: The Amazon Annapurna Labs team is a responsible for building innovative silicon and software for AWS customers. We are at the forefront of innovation by combining cloud scale with the world’s most talented engineers. Our team covers multiple disciplines including silicon engineering, hardware design and verification, software and operations. With such breadth of talent, there's opportunity to learn all of the time. We operate in spaces that are very large, yet our teams remain small and agile. There is no blueprint. We're inventing. We're experimenting. When you couple that with the ability to work on so many different products and services, it's a very unique learning culture.Learn more about Our History:https://www.amazon.science/how-silicon-innovation-became-the-secret-sauce-behind-awss-successYou: We are seeking a talented Software Development Manager with strong leadership/ mentoring skills to join our NKI Compiler Team.
