Member of Technical Staff, Training and Inference at Bosonai

Boson AI is an early-stage startup building large audio models for everyone to enjoy and use. Our founders (Alex Smola,Mu Li), and a team of Deep Learning, Optimization, NLP, and Statistics scientists and engineers are working on high quality generative AI models for language and beyond. We are seeking research scientists and engineers to join our team full-time in our Santa Clara office. As part of your role, you will work on implementing and improving distributed optimization algorithms, performance tune architectures, improve inference and help us make Deep Networks perform efficiently on our cluster. The ideal candidate will possess a strong background in CUDA, Triton, PyTorch, distributed optimization and deep learning architectures. We encourage you to apply even if you do not believe you meet every single qualification. As long as you are motivated to learn and join the development of foundation models, we’d love to chat.



Responsibilities

Optimize model architectures and loss objectives to handle combinations of images, video, text, speech, and audio data.

Implement and optimize kernels for efficient training on Hopper and Blackwell GPUs

Performance optimization (floating point formats, sparsity, systems level optimization)

Distributed optimization and training

You may be a good fit if you have:

Experience in writing clean and efficient codeMaster or Doctoral degree in computer science or equivalent.

Proficiency in at least one deep learning framework, such as PyTorch or JAX.

Participated in at least 1 research project related to distributed training or inference.

Strong candidates may also have:

Experience in implementing your own kernels in CUDA or another compiler/toolkit (Triton, ThunderKittens, PTX, etc.)

Experience in distributed optimization (e.g. using DeepSpeed, FSDP), ideally designing performance optimizations

Experience in computer networking (e.g. Infiniband, using SHARP)

Experience in handling data at billions-scale
