Responsibilities
The role focuses on building a high-performance inference and fine-tuning platform to maximize throughput and minimize latency for foundation models. Key tasks include optimizing LLM architectures, implementing speculative decoding, and productionizing low-precision training pipelines.
Requirements
Candidates need a profound understanding of transformer architectures, GPU memory hierarchy, and strong software engineering skills in Python. Experience with GPU profiling tools and modern deep learning frameworks is essential.
Full job description
About Nebius:
Nebius is leading a new era in cloud infrastructure for the global AI economy. We are building a full-stack AI cloud platform that supports developers and enterprises from data and model training through to production deployment, without the cost and complexity of building large in-house AI/ML infrastructure.
Built by engineers, for engineers. From large-scale GPU orchestration to inference optimization, we own the hard problems across compute, storage, networking and applied AI.
Listed on Nasdaq (NBIS) and headquartered in Amsterdam, we have a global footprint with R&D hubs across Europe, the UK, North America and Israel. Our team of 1,500+ includes hundreds of engineers with deep expertise across hardware, software and AI R&D.
The role
Token Factory is a part of Nebius Cloud, one of the world's largest GPU clouds, running tens of thousands of GPUs. We are building a high-performance inference and fine-tuning platform designed to push foundation models to their hardware limits. Our mission is to maximize throughput, minimise latency, and optimise cost-per-token across tens of thousands of GPUs.
Some directions we are currently working on, and which you can be a part of:
Inference Optimization: Identifying LLM inference bottlenecks to drive production speedups. Squeezing the maximum performance for a wide range of LLM architectures at scale (e.g., GPT-OSS, Kimi K2.5, DeepSeek V3.1/V3.2, GLM-5).
Inference engines support: Implement novel speculative decoding architectures, optimise components of various LLM designs (dense/MoE, autoregressive/parallel), and contribute to open-source inference engines.
Low Precision Training & Inference: Design and productionise low-precision (FP8, NVFP4/MXFP4) training and inference pipelines with measurable gains in throughput and cost-efficiency.
We expect you to have:
A profound understanding of theoretical foundations of machine learning and transformer architecture.
Experience profiling GPU workloads using Nsight, PyTorch profiler, or similar tools
Understanding of GPU memory hierarchy and compute/memory tradeoffs
Familiarity with important ideas in LLM space, such as MHA, RoPE, KV-cache, Flash Attention, and quantisation
Understanding of performance aspects of large neural network training (sharding strategies, custom kernels, hardware features etc.)
Strong software engineering skills (we mostly use Python)
Deep experience with modern deep learning frameworks
Proficiency in contemporary software engineering approaches, including CI/CD, version control and unit testing
Strong communication and leadership abilities
Nice to have:
Experience working with open-source inference engines (vLLM, SGLang, TensorRT-LLM), including contributions
Experience with kernel languages or DSLs such as Triton, Cute, CUTLASS, CUDA
A track record of building and delivering products (not necessarily ML-related) in a dynamic startup-like environment.
Strong engineering skills, including experience in developing large distributed systems or high-load web services.
Open-source projects that showcase your engineering prowess
Excellent command of the English language, alongside superior writing, articulation, and communication skills.
Benefits & Perks:
Competitive compensation
Career growth and learning opportunities
Flexibility and ownership
Collaborative and innovative culture
Opportunity to work on impactful AI projects
International environment and talented teams
What's it like to work at Nebius:
Fast moving - Bold thinking - Constant growth - Meaningful impact - Trust and real ownership - Opportunity to shape the future of AI
