Annapurna Labs is at the forefront of hardware/software co-design, not just in Amazon Web Services (AWS) but across the industry. We design and build every component of our hardware and software to create products that our customers use for accelerated computing. If you're interested in the work required to build the highest-performing Machine Learning servers, from inception to delighted customers, Annapurna is a fantastic choice.
We are seeking an experienced Software Development Engineer to join our ML Acceleration Board Firmware team, which is responsible for developing server software to initialize, debug, and monitor ML accelerators in the data center. The team focuses on deploying software to diverse environments, including pre-silicon emulation, hardware manufacturing, automated testing, and production systems used by customers.
Technologies useful to this role include operating systems, computer architecture, and embedded systems. Our team uses C, C++, Lua, bash, Python and other similar languages. Although we use machine learning workloads to validate systems software, this team is focused on codeveloping reliable server software and hardware for customers to deploy their ML workloads at scale.
Key job responsibilities
You will develop software that initializes machine learning accelerators and monitor server health by collecting sensor data, logs, and device metrics.
A day in the life
The team is focused on our organization's ability to scale. Automation, software best practices, and good architectural abstractions are key to this endeavor.
You will have the opportunity to develop software in a highly cross-functional environment, working side by side with software and hardware teams to optimize customer experience. You will be responsible for building scalable software systems that can be tested throughout the stages of product development including manufacturing and production. You will leverage automation, continuous integration, and fleet metrics to deploy and monitor your changes.
