Software Engineer, AI Inference CoDesign

What To Expect
Our team productionizes and experiments with novel ML models for our custom HW- we train and deploy large neural networks for efficient inference on compute-constrained edge devices (CPU / GPU / AI ASIC). The nature of this role is multi-disciplinary - you will work at the intersection of machine learning and systems by building the co-designing ML models and their developing the associated deployment infrastructure that enables the seamless training, deployment, and inference of all neural networks that run at Tesla AI.

What You'll Do

Build robust AI frameworks to lower neural networks to edge devices

Build robust AI infrastructure to train and fine-tune networks for Autopilot and Optimus on large GPU clusters

Deploy state-of-the-art neural networks on heterogenous compute, including Tesla’s in-house AI ASIC, with an aim to maximize network performance while minimizing latency

Collaborate with AI scientists and compiler engineers to effectively compress large models to run in low precision

Design and implement custom GPU kernels (CUDA / OpenCL) for efficient training and post-processing of network outputs

What You'll Bring

Proficiency with Python and C++, including modern C++ (14/17/20)

Proficiency with PyTorch or another machine learning framework

Proficiency with training and deploying neural networks for real-world AI

Proficiency with computer systems and computer architecture

Experience with CUDA
