The era of pervasive AI has arrived. In this era, organizations will use generative AI to unlock hidden value in their data, accelerate processes, reduce costs, drive efficiency and innovation to fundamentally transform their businesses and operations at scale. SambaNova Suite™ is the first full-stack, generative AI platform, from chip to model, optimized for enterprise and government organizations. Powered by the intelligent SN40L chip, the SambaNova Suite is a fully integrated platform, delivered on-premises or in the cloud, combined with state-of-the-art open-source models that can be easily and securely fine-tuned using customer data for greater accuracy. Once adapted with customer data, customers retain model ownership in perpetuity, so they can turn generative AI into one of their most valuable assets. About the role Runtime owns the lowest layers of the SambaNova stack, working directly with the hardware to maximize application performance and utilization, and providing the software infrastructure that everything above it depends on. We're seeking a seasoned engineer to work across this stack, supporting AI, ML, and scientific applications on large distributed systems. You'll build, test, and deploy the compute systems our customers run production workloads on. We're looking for strong programming skills, experience building and tuning software for distributed systems, and solid teamwork and planning.
