Software Engineer, Systems ML - PyTorch Compiler / ML Framework / Performance

The PyTorch Compiler team is dedicated to making PyTorch run faster and more resource-efficient without sacrificing its flexibility and ease of use. The team is the driving force behind PT2, a step function change in PyTorch’s history that brought compiler technologies to the core of PyTorch.

PT2 technologies have gained industry-wide recognition since their first release in March 2023. The team is committed to building the PT2 compiler that withstands the test of time while striving to become the #1 ML framework compiler in the industry.

The team is highly innovative, passionate about the technologies we build, and loves to do deep technical work. Our work is open-source, cutting-edge, and industry-leading.Software Engineer, Systems ML - PyTorch Compiler / ML Framework / Performance Responsibilities
