Senior Software Engineer, Systems ML - Collective Compute Enablement

The Collective Compute Enablement team is dedicated to maximizing training performance of Generative AI and Recommendation models on Meta's Training and Inference Accelerator (MTIA). We model and project the performance of current and future training workloads on MTIA while it is being designed to provide early, crucial feedback to the architecture, compiler, and kernels teams. We employ cutting-edge optimization and data parallelization strategies to maximize training throughput for the next generations of LLMs and deep recommendation models, and we work cross-functionally with many partner teams to assure the end-to-end performance of large-scale training in order to more quickly deliver the next generation of AI experiences to our users.Senior Software Engineer, Systems ML - Collective Compute Enablement Responsibilities

LocationsAbout Meta Meta builds technologies that help people connect, find communities, and grow businesses. When Facebook launched in 2004, it changed the way people connect. Apps like Messenger, Instagram and WhatsApp further empowered billions around the world. Now, Meta is moving beyond 2D screens toward immersive experiences like augmented and virtual reality to help build the next evolution in social technology. People who choose to build their careers by building with us at Meta help shape a future that will take us beyond what digital connection makes possible today—beyond the constraints of screens, the limits of distance, and even the rules of physics. Meta is committed to providing reasonable support (called accommodations) in our recruiting processes for candidates with disabilities, long term conditions, mental health conditions or sincerely held religious beliefs, or who are neurodivergent or require pregnancy-related support.
