Job Description: RoleWho you areA good software engineer. We are strong adherents of "infrastructure as code", so you will be writing (and reading) lots of Python, bash, etcPassionate about enabling other engineers and creating good tooling for developers to interact with infrastructure in an automated wayExperienced enough with dev ops to be properly opinionated. You should understand the trade-offs of various approaches and technologies, and not be dogmatically tied to a single toolCareful and detail oriented. We do science and care deeply about the correctness of the results. Our infrastructure reflects this--we highly value robustness and ensuring that systems run reliably and correctlyWhat the job involvesAt Imbue, we leverage large amounts of compute to make our small research team more effectiveThis role is about enabling and supporting those large-scale compute efforts and all of the other software infrastructure that goes into making research a pleasant, seamless experience for the rest of the team, especially as we scale to increasingly higher scale systemsBuild and manage wrapper tools that allow code written for single hosts to scale seamlessly to large GPU clustersDebug distributed exceptions and improve our logging and tracing stackDesign improvements to systems that manage secrets, configurations, ongoing jobs, and other stateful components of our softwareSearch out and prototype possible additions to our software stack that can integrate and provide extra leverage to pain points in typical workflowsDig deeply into open-source or third-party code, including C/C++ libraries, to add debugging information or patch in performance improvementsWork collaboratively with other members of the team to debug, provide guidance, and design software that is resilient to hardware and networking failures as well as third party tooling issuesIn summary: make good abstractions so that other engineers on the team can work at a higher level and everything else works seamlesslyApplication processAll submissions are reviewed by a person, so we encourage you to include notes on why you're interested in working with usIf you have any other work that you can showcase (open source code, side projects, etc.), certainly include it!We try to reply either way within a week or two at most (usually much sooner)Share this jobReport a problem with this jobHide companyView 3 more jobs at ImbueCompanyOur takeSince the widened attention placed on generative AIs such as Chat GPT, it seems that investors have intensified their interest in general intelligence. Imbue is one of the most recent AI research and training companies to step into the limelight after it achieved unicorn status in a $200 million Series B funding round in 2023.With competition including the likes of OpenAI and Anthropic, Imbue researches and improves the reasoning of AI models. Its focus on foundational AI means that its training has a wide range of lucrative applications. Using a full-stack approach (essentially building its tech from scratch) enables the creation of feedback loops that gradually develop even better AI models.FreddieCompany Specialist at Welcome to the Jungle
