Job description

At Groq. We believe in an AI economy powered by human agency. We envision a world where AI is accessible to all, a world that demands processing power that is better, faster, and more affordable than is available today. AI applications are currently constrained by the limitations of the Graphics Processing Unit (GPU), a technology originally developed for the gaming market and soon to become the weakest link in the AI economy.

Enter Groq's LPU™ Inference Engine. Specifically engineered for the demands of large language models (LLMs), the Language Processing Unit outpaces the GPU in speed, power, efficiency, and cost-effectiveness. The quickest way to understand the opportunity is to watch the following talk – groq.link/scspdemo.

Why join Groq? AI will change humanity forever, and we believe preservation of human agency and self determination is only possible if AI is made affordably and universally accessible. Groq’s LPUs will power AI from an early stage, and you will get to leave your fingerprint on civilization.

Mission: Performance Modelling and System Customization for customer specific models.

Responsibilities & opportunities in this role:

  • Build and lead a team to model performance autonomously from the Software Team
  • Lead a matrixed team to enable SW/HW co-optimization across system/chip/SW
  • Help drive v3 chip architecture through a solid understanding of Groq's software and hardware 
  • Develop the Design System Exploration (DSE) tool for performance analysis and exploration of both chip and system.
  • Evaluate the benefits of new technologies on Groq System and help guide implementation
  • Provide what-if scenarios / continuous guidance directly to CEO & OG. 
  • Define custom solutions for high profile customers

Ideal candidates have/are:

  • Architecture - understanding both chip and system sw and hw architecture 
  • Driving automation - figuring out how to drive DSE tool plus silicon tiler to minimise TTM 
  • Customer facing - ability to interact with customers, extract metrics and paramaters and convert them into actionable system and silicon targets 
  • Technical collaboration - acting as a bridge between SW and hw 

Attributes of a Groqster:

  • Humility - Egos are checked at the door
  • Collaborative & Team Savvy - We make up the smartest person in the room, together
  • Growth & Giver Mindset - Learn it all versus know it all, we share knowledge generously
  • Curious & Innovative - Take a creative approach to projects, problems, and design
  • Passion, Grit, & Boldness - no limit thinking, fueling informed risk taking

If this sounds like you, we’d love to hear from you!
