Requirements

  • 4+ years of experience building or operating large-scale inference serving systems.
  • Deep, hands-on experience with inference serving frameworks.
  • Proficiency in optimization techniques such as batching, KV-cache management, quantization, and speculative decoding.
  • Strong systems thinking capabilities to reason about end-to-end request handling.
  • Experience working directly with GPU/CUDA engineers to integrate low-level performance work.
  • Proven track record of making high-stakes architecture decisions and owning outcomes.
  • Ability to operate effectively in an early-stage, unstructured environment.
  • Nice to have: Experience with Triton or custom ML inference/training frameworks.
  • Nice to have: Experience with autoscaling or capacity planning.
  • Nice to have: Familiarity with Kubernetes or Slurm for cluster orchestration.

Responsibilities

  • Define Fuse's inference serving strategy and architecture from first principles.
  • Design and build the serving stack: request routing, batching, scheduling, and autoscaling for high-throughput, latency-sensitive inference workloads.
  • Own model-level optimisation strategy for serving, applying techniques like quantisation, distillation, and speculative decoding.
  • Make core software architecture calls on serving frameworks and orchestration (e.g., vLLM, TensorRT-LLM, SGLang, Triton Inference Server).
  • Translate performance and uptime commitments into technical specifications and capacity plans.
  • Act as a direct technical owner of inference performance and reliability.
  • Partner with CUDA and GPU engineering teams to integrate custom hardware performance work into the serving layer.
