AWS designs custom SoCs (System on Chips) that power the world's largest machine learning training and inference clusters. Our organization builds both the SoCs and the low-level software stack that brings these chips to life — drivers that expose the hardware to the OS, runtime libraries that orchestrate computation, and collective communication software that coordinates thousands of chips working together across a network.
We're looking for a Systems Software Engineer who wants to work at the boundary between hardware and software in both pre-silicon and post-silicon, where the problems are hard, the debugging is deep, and the impact is enormous.
Our team develops SoC models and infrastructure to enable SoC validation, accelerate system software development, and enable architectural exploration. As part of the ML accelerator systems modeling software team, you will:
Annapurna Labs, our organization within AWS, designs and deploys some of the largest custom silicon in the world. You'll work on software that runs on chips no one outside the team has seen yet, solving problems that don't have Stack Overflow answers. You'll see your code running in production on infrastructure that serves millions of ML workloads.
You will thrive in this role if you:
Although we are building machine learning chips, no machine learning background is needed for this role. Any ML knowledge required can be learned on the job — what matters is your ability to write great low-level software and reason about hardware.
This role can be based in either Cupertino, CA or Austin, TX.
