In this role, you'll work across the stack-from Kubernetes infrastructure to cutting-edge ML frameworks like vLLM, LangChain, PyTorch and popular open-source models -to prototype and deliver agentic AI applications and ML infrastructure as a service. You'll operate at the intersection of infrastructure, research, and product innovation, helping to define and deliver ambitious new product initiatives.

We're seeking a self-starter and technical leader-someone who thrives in ambiguity, moves fast, and brings both software engineering rigor and machine learning intuition to the table.

Responsibilities

  • Benchmark, evaluate, and optimize model performance, GPU hardware performance, and ML software performance.
  • Lead ideation and experimentation on early-stage AI initiatives and bring new technical directions to life within OCI.
  • Collaborate across research, product, and OCI compute platform teams to drive integration and productization of ML capabilities.
  • Contribute to internal tooling, observability, and developer experience improvements for ML infra.

Preferred Qualifications
  • 5+ years of experience in software engineering or ML engineering roles
  • Experience working with containers, Kubernetes, including deploying ML workloads
  • Proficiency in Python & PyTorch/JAX or other ML software.
  • Experience writing infrastructure-as-code using Terraform and managing cloud-native services
  • Familiarity with model evaluation techniques and tools for benchmarking and profiling
  • Proven track record of owning complex technical projects from concept to delivery
  • Comfortable in a fast-paced, ambiguity-rich environment where innovation is expected
  • Cloud services experience working with OCI, AWS, Google Cloud Platform, or Azure

Nice to Have
  • Experience fine-tuning models using LoRA / PEFT
  • Prior work with GPU-optimized serving on OCI, AWS, Google Cloud Platform, or Azure
  • Background in distributed inference or training on multi-GPU / multi-node environments - High Performance Computing setup.
  • Experience contributing to or maintaining OSS ML libraries
