What you'll do

  • Eval pipeline optimization (orchestration level): Finding opportunities to decrease e2e execution cost by reducing overhead or increasing parallelism in jobs

  • Eval pipeline optimization (model level): Improving eval workload efficiency by improving exported model efficiency in CPU or TPU export configurations

  • Pipeline observability: Providing insights and high level metrics on pipeline runtime and success rate

  • LLM integration: Finding better ways to integrate agents with eval workflows. This could be making it easier for agents to run evals accountably, or making it easier for agents to contribute maintainable code to the eval codebase

  • Reading/writing pipeline and implementation code

  • Profiling and understanding slowness within distributed systems

What they're looking for
