(Staff / Senior Staff) AI Inference Reliability Engineer, Compute Infra
Together AI
We are seeking a software engineer with a strong focus on reliability to manage the production operations of our Kubernetes-native control plane, which provisions and runs our GPU inference fleet. This platform team develops the API and controllers that enable the inference team to define their needs, such as clusters, model deployments, or capacity changes, and ensures these are reconciled. Your role will be to maintain this functionality in the real world by troubleshooting issues like InfiniBand problems, diagnosing serving faults, and enhancing our automated self-healing systems to permanently resolve recurring failures. The primary goal is to ensure the decoupling remains effective even during disruptions and to maintain fleet efficiency without introducing new instabilities. You will be responsible for inference serving SLOs and error budgets, leading incident response, and implementing lessons learned from postmortems into system changes. Additionally, you will address the reliability aspects of capacity efficiency, recognizing that misconfigured defragmentation or bin-packing can pose production risks. We value candidates with hands-on production reliability experience in large-scale distributed or GPU-serving systems, proficiency in troubleshooting InfiniBand/RDMA and Kubernetes controller-based platforms, and a software engineering approach to GPU infrastructure.

[Junior / Senior / Staff] Software Engineer, Inference / Compute Infrastructure Engineering
Together AI
We are seeking a software engineer to develop a Kubernetes-native control plane for provisioning and managing our GPU inference fleet. This role involves designing a manifest-driven API that allows the inference team to declare their needs, such as clusters, model deployments, or capacity adjustments. Our controllers will handle the underlying reconciliation, provider/runtime selection, and lifecycle management, abstracting away the complexities of the serving stack, scheduler, or hardware pool. You will also build systems to ensure fleet efficiency, including defragmentation, rebalancing logic for consolidating workloads, and scheduling/bin-packing improvements to maximize GPU utilization without compromising latency. The core objective is to decouple platform users from operational complexities while optimizing hardware capacity. This includes developing controllers, reconciliation loops, and self-service interfaces (API/CLI) for seamless operation, alongside event-driven systems for health monitoring, remediation, and utilization management, all designed to operate without human intervention. A product-oriented mindset is crucial, with a focus on building internal platforms and APIs that enhance the developer experience for consuming engineering teams. This role operates under a "you build it, you own it" philosophy, encompassing both software delivery and production support.
