📋 Description
• We are investing heavily in our Python developer experience.
• As a Python SDK Engineer you’ll design new APIs and programming patterns, improve performance, work on packaging and release automation, and enable many thousands of developers to run customizable AI workloads entirely on-device.
• Your work will focus initially on two of our open-source Python projects: lmstudio-python and venvstacks.
• Design & build new Python SDK features.
• Contribute to venvstacks CLI & core library.
• Packaging & distribution — collaborate on many-linux, macOS universal2, and Windows wheels.
• Performance engineering — profile and optimize token throughput.
• Developer experience & docs — write clear docstrings, Sphinx guides, examples, and blog posts.
• Cross-team collaboration — work daily with desktop-app, TypeScript-SDK, and core-eng teams to ensure consistent behavior across languages and platforms.

🎯 Requirements
• Passion for local LLMs (you’ve already experimented with LM Studio or similar tools).
• 3+ years professional Python development, including packaging for PyPI or internal indexes.
• Solid OS & networking fundamentals (process isolation, sockets/WebSockets, file permissions, GPU drivers).
• Excellent problem-solving skills and written/spoken communication.
• Familiarity with Pydantic, asyncio, multiprocessing, and gRPC or HTTP/2 streaming protocols.
• Prior work on SDKs or CLI developer-tools with public APIs and semantic-versioning discipline.
• Mastery of Python internals (GIL mechanics, byte-code execution, import system, C-API/PyO3).
