Software Engineer - C Systems / GPU virtualization


We're working with a fast growing GPU virtualization start-up and they are seeking a C Systems Engineer to join them on a permanent basis, 100% onsite in San Francisco.


About them:

The company provides GPU virtualization software that boosts utilization for operators of GPU cloud infrastructure. Backed by a recent $4.5M Seed round, the team has grown revenue from zero to more than $500,000 in 6 months.

As employee number five, this role is ideal for someone who enjoys performance focused engineering measured at the microsecond level and who wants to work at the core of a low level GPU platform.


You will contribute to the core virtualization stack, influence technical direction, and help support a rapidly expanding customer base.


What you will do?

  • Optimize a high performance C virtualization library
  • Research oversubscription, checkpointing, and distributed GPU cluster techniques
  • Support new architectures through deep systems level understanding
  • Debug complex production issues across the stack
  • Investigate performance bottlenecks in machine learning workloads


What they look for

  • Strong C systems engineering background
  • Deep systems knowledge valued more than prior GPU experience
  • Trading firm or hedge fund experience is a strong indicator
  • Open to exceptional fresh graduates with top tier internships
  • Degree from a leading CS program with a GPA of 3.7 or higher
  • Math or coding competition experience is a positive signal


What's in it for you?

  • Base salary from $200-300k USD
  • Competitive equity package
  • Relocation support available
  • Visa support for TN, Canadian, and H 1B transfers


Things to note:

  • Fully on site in San Francisco with typical weeks of 60 to 65 hours
  • Some weekend work may be required
  • No new H 1B applications (sorry!)
