Description

In Annapurna Labs we are at the forefront of hardware/software co-design not just in Amazon Web Services (AWS) but across the industry.

The Machine Learning Server Software Team is looking for candidates interested in writing data-driven software for our Machine Learning servers.
We help to maintain and manufacture the most advanced servers in the world.

We touch technologies from the accelerator inner-workings to the I2C infrastructure pervasive in the server and everything in between. Our team does not work on machine learning algorithms, but rather on the physical systems (hardware) which execute and accelerate those machine learning algorithms. Data paths, I2C, accelerator inner-workings are our bread and butter. Come join our team.
