Sign up with Clera and we'll reach out the moment a role actually fits you — no more spraying applications into the void.
Develop the path from AI model architecture to physical silicon by creating training techniques and optimization strategies for novel compute substrates. You will focus on energy benchmarking, hardware-aware training, and low-level GPU kernel development to maximize efficiency.
Requires an MS/PhD in a quantitative field with deep practical experience in the AI/ML stack and GPU performance profiling. Proficiency in PyTorch and the ability to map complex architectures like Transformers to system performance is essential.
Since 2022, AI has entered the mainstream, reshaping entire industries from education and software development to fundamental consumer behaviors. This revolution has created an unprecedented demand for computation - a demand that is now fundamentally limited by energy, not just in the datacenter, but at a global scale.
At Unconventional, our mission is to solve this. We are rethinking computing from the ground up to build a new foundation for AI that is 1000x more efficient. We're doing this by exploiting the rich physics of semiconductors, mapping neural networks directly to the device physics rather than relying on layers of inefficient abstraction.
As a Member of Technical Staff, AI Systems, Model Optimization, you will develop the path from model architecture to physical silicon. You will develop the training techniques, optimization strategies, and infrastructure required to make AI models run efficiently on our novel compute substrates, closing the loop between model design and tapeout.
Building the most efficient substrate for intelligence.
Unconventional AI is rethinking the foundations of a computer to optimize energy efficiency for AI. Founded by experts in AI systems, analog circuits, computing theory, and neuroscience, we are bringing biology-scale efficiency to artificial intelligence.
