Software Development Manager

Software Development Manager - ML Compiler, AWS Neuron, Annapurna Labs The Product: AWS Machine Learning accelerators are at the forefront of AWS innovation. The Inferentia chip delivers best-in‑class ML inference performance at the lowest cost in the cloud. Trainium will deliver the best-in‑class ML training performance with the most teraflops (TFLOPS) of compute power for ML in the cloud. This is all enabled by a cutting‑edge software stack, the AWS Neuron Software Development Kit (SDK), which includes an ML compiler, runtime and natively integrates into popular ML frameworks, such as PyTorch, TensorFlow and MxNet. The Neuron SDK optimizes performance of complex neural‑net models executed on AWS Inferentia and Trainium. AWS Neuron is used at scale with customers and partners like PyTorch, Epic Games, Snap, Airbnb, Autodesk, Amazon Alexa, Amazon Rekognition and many others. The Team: The Amazon Annapurna Labs team is responsible for building innovation in silicon and software for AWS customers. We are at the forefront of innovation by combining cloud scale with the world’s most talented engineers. Our team covers multiple disciplines including silicon engineering, hardware design and verification, software and operations. With such breadth of talent, there is an opportunity to learn all of the time. We operate in spaces that are very large, yet our teams remain small and agile. There is no blueprint – we’re inventing and experimenting. Our working culture is uniquely learning‑focused.
