About The Role
We are seeking a Full-Stack Machine Learning Engineer to join our team, bridging AI solutions development with AI platform engineering for Qualcomm’s AI Inference Suite and rack-scale data center deployments. This role involves designing, delivering, and supporting end-to-end AI services, agentic workflows, and fine-tuning pipelines, while enabling lifecycle automation, orchestration, and observability for large-scale data center environments.
You will bring a strong combination of full-stack engineering expertise, machine learning proficiency, and infrastructure knowledge to build robust, scalable AI systems.
Key Responsibilities Will Include:
- API Development & Optimization: Build and optimize API serving layers for AI inference workloads, ensuring model and hardware efficiency.
- Agentic Workflows & RAG Pipelines: Develop intelligent agents and retrieval-augmented generation workflows using frameworks such as LangChain and crew.ai.
- Model Lifecycle Management: Implement production-grade bring-your-own-model and fine-tuning flows, including dataset ingestion, orchestration, evaluation, and deployment.
- LLM Runtime Integration: Work with various LLM runtimes (e.g., vLLM, Dynamo, llm-d) and leverage inference optimization techniques.
- SDK & Tooling Contributions: Contribute to AI Inference Suite SDKs (Python/TypeScript/Java/Rust), CLI tools, and reference applications.
- Cluster Management: Design and maintain AI cluster management software for provisioning, orchestration, and monitoring.
- Telemetry & Observability: Integrate out-of-band management via Redfish/IPMI and in-band telemetry using Prometheus/OpenTelemetry.
- Infrastructure-as-Code: Develop workflows using MAAS, Terraform, and Ansible for bare-metal and containerized deployments.
- Kubernetes Orchestration: Enable Kubernetes/Helm-based orchestration for inference clusters and multi-tenancy.
- Monitoring & Dashboards: Build dashboards for rack health, inventory, and SLA compliance.
- Continuous Innovation: Stay current with GenAI trends, rack-scale AI orchestration, and data center best practices.
- Bachelor’s degree in Computer Science, Engineering, or related field.
- 5+ years of software engineering experience; 3+ years in ML or HPC environments.
- Strong programming skills in Python, Rust/Go, and TypeScript, with solid software development fundamentals.
- Deep understanding of data structures and algorithms in distributed systems and high-performance computing contexts.
- Hands-on experience with Kubernetes, Helm, Prometheus/OpenTelemetry, and Ansible/Terraform.
- Practical experience with LLM runtimes, agent frameworks, and rack-scale orchestration.
- Master’s degree in Computer Science, Machine Learning, or related field.
- Experience building inference and fine-tuning pipelines, as well as agentic workflows.
- Knowledge of data centre resource lifecycle management, out-of-band protocols (Redfish/IPMI), and MAAS/OpenStack.
- Exposure to scale-up data centre networking technologies (RoCE/RDMA/NVLink).
- Contributions to inference and GenAI model performance optimization.
