Senior Device Driver Engineer (Team Lead), Annapurna Labs Machine Learning Accel
Amazon, Oklahoma City, Oklahoma, United States,
Senior Device Driver Engineer (Team Lead), Annapurna Labs Machine Learning Accelerators, AWS
AWS Utility Computing (UC) provides product innovations that continue to set AWS’s services and features apart in the industry. As a member of the UC organization, you’ll support the development and management of Compute, Database, Storage, Platform, and Productivity Apps services in AWS, including support for customers who require specialized security solutions for their cloud services. Additionally, this role may involve exposure to and experience with Amazon's growing suite of generative AI services and other cutting-edge cloud computing offerings across the AWS portfolio.
Annapurna Labs (our organization within AWS UC) designs silicon and software that accelerates innovation. Customers choose us to create cloud solutions that solve challenges that were unimaginable a short time ago—even yesterday. Our custom chips, accelerators, and software stacks enable us to take on technical challenges that have never been seen before, and deliver results that help our customers change the world.
Custom silicon chips live at the heart of AWS Machine Learning servers, and our team builds the backend software that runs these servers. We’re looking for someone to lead our SoC (System on Chip) device-driver / HAL (Hardware Abstraction Layer) software team. You'll help us deliver at scale, as we build the next generation of SoC software. This is a hands-on, in-the-trenches software engineering leadership position.
As the team lead for SoC driver SW, you will:
- Build and manage a small, strong team of 3-5 developers- Work with hardware designers to write drivers for newly developed SoC IPs- Work with system software teams to solve SoC and system-level architectural issues, drive debug, and innovate on cross-functional solutions- Refactor and maintain existing codebases throughout the device lifecycle- Continuously test and deploy your software stack to multiple internal customers- Innovate on the tooling you provide to customers, making it easier for them to use and debug our SoCs
Annapurna Labs, our organization within AWS, designs and deploys some of the largest custom silicon in the world, with many subsystems that all must be managed, tested, and monitored. The SoC drivers are a critical piece of the AWS infrastructure management software stack that ensures the chip is functional, performant, and secure.
You will thrive in this role if you:
- Enjoy building, managing, and leading small teams- Love solving complex system-level issues- Are proficient in C++ and familiar with Python- Know how to build effective abstractions over low-level SoC details- Are familiar with modular driver architectures (such as the Linux or Windows driver stacks)- Have strong opinions about software architecture, and are able to apply them effectively- Enjoy learning new technologies, building software at scale, moving fast, and working closely with colleagues as part of a small, startup-like team within a large organization
Although we build and deploy machine learning chips, no machine learning background is needed for this role. Your team (and your software) won’t be doing machine learning. Our driver stack lives at the lowest level of the backend AWS infrastructure responsible for managing our ML servers. You and your team will develop drivers for components used by machine learning, like PCIe and HBM, but won’t need to deeply understand ML yourselves.
This role can be based in either Cupertino, CA or Austin, TX. The team is split between the two sites, with no preference for one over the other.
This is a fast-paced role where you'll work with thought-leaders in multiple technology areas. You'll have high standards for yourself and everyone you work with, and you'll be constantly looking for ways to improve your software, as well as our products' overall performance, quality, and cost.
We're changing an industry. We're searching for individuals who are ready for this challenge, who want to reach beyond what is possible today. Come join us and build the future of machine learning!

We have a broad mix of experience levels and tenures, and we’re building an environment that celebrates knowledge-sharing and mentorship. Our senior members enjoy one-on-one mentoring and thorough, but kind, code reviews.
