JD — the work
About the role
You would work on the heart of the company's GPU virtualization stack, a C++ library where microsecond-level performance matters. The role suits someone who enjoys squeezing speed out of complex C++ code and wants to build low-level GPU software with real impact. The team is small and on-site in San Francisco, revenue is growing quickly, and the customer base is expanding fast, so your work directly shapes how the platform scales.
What you'll do
- Build core features in the C++ library that virtualizes GPUs
- Research checkpointing, oversubscription, and other techniques for high-performance GPU systems
- Add support for new hardware architectures, drawing on deep understanding of the whole system
- Debug tricky systems-level issues in live production environments
- Track down slowdowns in customers' GPU workloads
What they're looking for
- 4+ years of software engineering experience
- Deep C++ expertise and a drive to tune performance down to the microsecond
- Passion for low-level GPU and systems software
- Comfort debugging complex systems in production
Nice to have
- Experience with Go, Rust, or Kubernetes
