Software Development Engineer - AI/ML Networking Disaggregated Inference, Annapurna Labs , Elastic Collectives
Annapurna Labs (U.S.) Inc. Cupertino, California
Every token a large language model generates depends on data reaching the right accelerator at the right moment. As AI models outgrow any single chip, the network between accelerators becomes the bottleneck that decides how fast - and how affordably - the world's largest models can serve real users. That network layer is what our team builds. We're looking for an engineer to work at the frontier of disaggregated inference: splitting LLM serving into separate prefill and decode pools and moving the model's KV cache between them at the limit of what the hardware allows. Get it right and users get answers in milliseconds; get it wrong and the fastest accelerators in the world sit idle waiting on data. You'll build components of the high-speed transfer path that make that difference, and you'll learn to measure success in how close we run to the theoretical peak of the machine. In this role you will: Build and optimize the low-level data-movement software that transfers KV cache and activations across accelerators, servers, and heterogeneous memory - over AWS's highest-performance network fabric. Profile real workloads, find the true bottleneck, and close the gap between "it works" and "it runs fast" - pushing components toward the hardware's limit. Work across the stack - from network transport up to the inference frameworks - learning from the teams building the chips, runtime, and models. Deliver features that ship to our largest clusters, for our largest customers, serving the largest AI models in production. What we're looking for: Strong C/C++ and a genuine interest in low-level, performance-critical systems - solid command of Linux, memory, and writing fast code. The instinct to ask "how fast could this go?" and the discipline to measure it. Exposure to high-speed networking, HPC interconnects, or GPU/accelerator systems (RDMA, InfiniBand, libfabric, UCX, NCCL, MPI) is a strong plus; embedded-systems experience is welcome. Prior AI/ML experience is not required - if you're a strong systems engineer eager to learn, we'll teach you the ML side. If you like solving genuinely hard problems, working alongside HPC and ML customers, iterating fast, and shipping at a scale few places can offer, come join us.

Staff/Principal, Hardware Engineer
Aurelius Systems San Francisco, California
Job Description Job Description Who We Are: Aurelius Systems is a VC backed defense tech startup building autonomous, edge deployed directed energy systems for counter-UAS. We build laser weapons to shoot down drones. We're a small team of 10 engineers, former US military operators, and subject matter experts scaling America's directed energy dominance. The first cost effective, reliable and robust laser weapon system. Our namesake isn't an accident. Marcus Aurelius wrote about doing the work in front of you, every day, without excuses. Henry Ford didn't wait for permission to reinvent manufacturing. That's how we operate - small team, unreasonable output, no hiding behind the unachievable. In addition to our San Francisco lab, we opened our Detroit manufacturing hub and field test weekly on our own 400-acre private range. The Role and Your Impact: We need a Principal Hardware Engineer to bring senior technical judgment across Archimedes hardware. You are a highly experienced builder who has seen systems go the full way. From a working prototype to hardware that ships and survives in the field. You've done it more than once. You know where systems break, where teams get stuck, and how to keep both moving. This is a technical leadership seat, not a people management seat. Your role is to raise the level of the hardware org through experience, architectural judgment, and hands-on execution. You lead by example, you unblock hard problems, and you set the technical bar for how hardware gets designed and shipped at Aurelius. You'll partner with the founders and the Director of Engineering on architecture and roadmap. You'll work directly alongside mechanical, electrical, power, embedded, and optics engineers on the hardest problems the team is facing. What You'll Own: Architectural direction across the hardware stack from mechanical, electrical, power, to embedded integration Technical decisions on the hardest problems, from concept through production readiness Pattern recognition and technical review like surfacing risk early, and catching what junior engineers miss Handson execution when the problem needs your specific experience to solve fast Design and manufacturing trades across cost, mass, reliability, schedule, and field performance Cross-team judgment when hardware, controls, optics, and software collide Setting the technical bar for design reviews, documentation quality, and release standards Mentorship by example. Engineers should learn from watching you work, not from being managed by you What We're Looking For: 10+ years designing and shipping complex hardware systems Track record taking systems the full development cycle from prototype through manufacturing and deployment Senior IC or technical leadership background at hardware companies that actually shipped Deep technical judgment across at least two of: mechanical, electrical, power electronics, embedded systems Pattern recognition from having built real systems before, especially systems that had to survive real-world conditions Comfort operating as the technical anchor on a small team, not the manager of a large one Nice to Haves: Directed energy, laser, or high-power systems experience Defense or aerospace program experience with MIL-STD or equivalent qualification Founder or founding engineer background at a hardware company Manufacturing depth as-in you've stood up production lines or worked closely with the manufacturers who do Active security clearance or ability to obtain one How You Operate: Extreme bias for action. You'd rather build a prototype tomorrow than model it for a month You characterize your own systems before the field does Comfortable with ambiguity and fast iteration in a startup environment You debug from first principles, not intuition alone Clear communicator across mechanical, electrical, optical, and software teams Self directed. You identify what needs to happen next and do it without being told Why Join Aurelius Systems: Build more in 1 month than most engineers build in 1 year. We field test weekly. Your work goes downrange, not into a filing cabinet. Career velocity is real. At 10 engineers, there are no layers between you and impact. Work on a problem that actually matters. Small cheap drones are changing warfare. Our laser systems are the asymmetric answer - infinite magazine, near zero cost per shot, scalable to every base, border, facility, and truck. Join the densest defense startup ecosystem in the country. California is where the next generation of defense companies are being built. How We Work: Core hours are Monday through Friday, 9 to 6. When we're sprinting toward a demo or field test, the team ramps up - nights, weekends, whatever it takes to ship. When the sprint lands, we ramp down. We don't manufacture intensity for show. Benefits: Competitive salary and equity United Health Care medical, dental, and vision coverage Flexible 18 days PTO plus 5 sick days Travel to field test events and range days Covered daily lunches and office snacks and drinks E-bike and scooter stipend up to $500 Direct access to leadership and real ownership over your work Export Control Notice: This role requires access to export-controlled information or items that require U.S. Person status. As defined by U.S. law, individuals who are any one of the following are considered to be a U.S. Person: (1) U.S. citizens, (2) legal permanent residents (a.k.a. green card holders), and (3) certain protected classes of asylees and refugees, as defined in 8 U.S.C. 1324b(a)(3).
