The opportunity
OpenAI’s Hardware organization develops silicon and system-level solutions designed for the unique demands of advanced AI workloads. The team is responsible for building the next generation of AI-native silicon while working closely with software and research partners to…
What you'll do
Co-design future hardware for programmability and performance with our hardware vendors
Assist hardware vendors in developing optimal kernels and add support for it in our compiler
Develop performance estimates for critical kernels for different hardware: configurations and drive decisions on compute core and memory hierarchy features
Build system performance models at different abstraction levels and carry out: analysis to drive decisions on scale up, scale out, front end networking
Work with machine learning engineers, kernel engineers and compiler: developers to understand their vision and needs from high performance accelerators
Manage communication and coordination with internal and external partners
What they're looking for
- Influence the roadmap of hardware partners to optimize them for OpenAI’s workloads.
- Evaluate potential partners’ accelerators and platforms.
- As the scope of the role and team grows, understand and influence roadmaps: for hardware partners for our datacenter networks, racks, and buildings.
- + years of industry experience, including experience harnessing compute at: scale and optimizing ML platform code to run efficiently on target hardware.
