Senior Software Engineer - Deep Learning Inference
NVIDIA seeks a Senior Software Engineer specializing in Deep Learning Inference for our growing team. As a key contributor, you will help design, build, and optimize the GPU-accelerated software that powers today’s most sophisticated AI applications. Our team is responsible for developing and maintaining high-performance deep learning frameworks, including SGLang and vLLM, which are at the forefront of efficient large-scale model serving and inference. You will play a central role in improving these platforms, facilitating smooth deployment and serving of groundbreaking language models.
You’ll work closely with the deep learning community to implement the latest algorithms for public release in frameworks like SGLang and vLLM, as well as other DL frameworks. Your work will focus on identifying and driving performance improvements for state-of-the-art LLM and Generative AI models across NVIDIA accelerators, from datacenter GPUs to edge SoCs. You'll bring to bear open-source tools and plugins—including CUTLASS, OAI Triton, NCCL, and CUDA kernels—to implement and optimize model serving pipelines.
