Principal Software Engineer- AI Platform
Microsoft Corporation, Mountain View, California, us, 94039
The Artificial Intelligence (AI) Frameworks team at Microsoft develops AI software that enables running AI models everywhere, from world’s fastest AI supercomputers, to servers, desktops, mobile phones, IoT devices, and internet browsers. We collaborate with our hardware teams and partners to build the software stacks for AI across Microsoft.
Our stack enables ML developers to optimize and scale out model training and inference.
We work directly with OpenAI on the models hosted on the Azure OpenAI service. The ONNX Runtime is shipped in major Microsoft products, including Office, Windows, Bing, SQL Server, and Dynamics, serving trillions of inferences daily.
The team operates at the intersection of AI algorithmic innovation, purpose-built AI hardware, systems, and software. We are a cross-disciplinary team of highly capable and motivated people with a collaborative and inclusive culture. We collaborate with and contribute to the open-source community.
We are looking to hire a Principal Software Engineer- AI Platform to join our team. As a member of this team, you will have the opportunity to work on multiple levels of the AI software stack, including the fundamental abstractions, programming models, compilers, runtimes, libraries and APIs to enable large scale training and inferencing of models.
This is an Individual contributor role: as a senior technical leader it requires setting the technical direction for the projects in the area, and hands on software design and development skills. We’re looking for someone who has a demonstrated history of solving hard technical problems and is motivated to tackle the hardest problems in building a full end-to-end AI stack.
An entrepreneurial approach and ability to take initiative and move fast are essential.
