About this role
Software Engineer, Inference – AMD GPU Enablement San Francisco, California, United States About the Team Our Inference team brings OpenAI's most capable research and technology to the world through our products. We empower consumers, enterprises and developers alike to use and access our state-of-the-art AI models, allowing them to do things that they've never been able to before. We focus on performant and efficient model inference, as well as accelerating research progression via model inference. About the Role We're hiring engineers to scale and optimize OpenAI's inference infrastructure across emerging GPU platforms. You'll work across the stack - from low-level kernel performance to high-level distributed execution - and collaborate closely with research, infra, and performance teams to ensure our largest models run smoothly on new hardware. This is a high-impact opportunity to shape OpenAI's multi-platform inference capabilities from the ground up with a particular focus on advancing inference performance on AMD accelerators. In this role, you will: - Own bring-up, correctness and performance of the OpenAI inference stack on AMD hardware. - Integrate internal model-serving infrastructure (e.g., vLLM, Triton) into a variety of GPU-backed systems. - Debug and optimize distributed inference workloads across memory, network, and compute layers. - Validate correctness, performance, and scalability of model execution on large GPU clusters. - Collaborate with partner teams to design and optimize high-performance GPU kernels for accelerators using HIP, Triton, or other performance-focused frameworks. - Collaborate with partner teams to build, integrate and tune collective communication libraries (e.g., RCCL) used to parallelize
