Original job description

Your Impact at LILA

Lila is building a platform where AI and automation co-evolve to accelerate scientific discovery Our AI Research team is looking to hire a ML Research Engineer to maximize iteration speed for mid- and post-training runs on 1T+ parameter LLMs using the latest NVIDIA chips. This involves not only maximizing GPU utilization on an individual training run but also making these optimizations maintainable, reusable, and adaptable so that the rest of the research team always knows how to confidently use the latest optimized stack.

What You'll Be Building

GPU compute performance: profiling, kernel development, long-context handling, memory footprint optimization
GPU cluster performance: collective/MoE framework optimization, comm/compute overlap, RDMA/IB/EFA usage, P/D disaggregation
Big data handling: manage mid-training scale data across storage, streaming, tokenization, and processing
RL pipeline: optimize the async RL cycle, including environment/sandbox interfacing, long rollout handling, large token metadata (such as router replay), and weight sync
Setting the performance standard: make sure optimized configurations are tested, accessible, and adaptable to research tasks so that the whole team can work at maximum velocity
Establishing the Pareto frontier: communicate with researchers about throughput/accuracy tradeoffs (e.g. lower-precision compute, higher async staleness) to establish optimal points

What You'll Need to Succeed

BS/MS in Computer Science or a related quantitative field and 4+ years working as a software engineer or machine learning engineer, or PhD in a relevant research area and 1+ years work experience.
Experience with LLM inference libraries such as vLLM and training libraries such as Megatron, including usage and throughput optimization.
Experience running LLM inference and/or training at scale across multi-node GPU clusters.
Familiarity with core concepts in reinforcement learning.
Proven track record of software engineering excellence - clean APIs, well-tested code, thoughtful abstractions.
Hands-on experience supporting and maintaining production libraries used by other engineers and researchers.
Strong CI/CD skills - experience designing integration test suites, build pipelines, and automated quality gates for multi-package ecosystems.
A passion for agentic systems and awareness of cutting-edge approaches in LLM tool use and autonomy.

Bonus Points For

Experience working with kernel DSLs and frameworks like CUDA, CuTe, CuTile, Triton, etc.
Experience with GPU networking frameworks like NCCL and NIXL, as well as fabrics like NVLink, IB, and EFA.
Experience with distributed systems or compute frameworks (Ray, Flyte, Airflow, or similar).
Familiarity with containerized compute backends (Docker, Modal) and sandbox orchestration.
Experience with Ray actors, Ray Serve, or similar actor-model frameworks.

Compensation

We offer competitive base compensation with bonus potential and generous early-stage equity. Your final offer will reflect your background, expertise, and expected impact.

U.S. Benefits. Full-time U.S. employees receive a comprehensive benefits program including medical, dental, and vision coverage; employer-paid life and disability insurance; flexible time off with generous company wide holidays; paid parental leave; an educational assistance program; commuter benefits, including bike share memberships for office based employees; and a company subsidized lunch program.

International Benefits. Full-time employees outside the U.S. receive a comprehensive benefits program tailored to their region. USD salary ranges apply only to U.S.-based positions; international salaries are set to local market.

Expected Base Salary Range

$148,000 - $240,000 USD
