Are you an engineer who excels at the crossover of hardware and software? We are looking for enthusiastic software engineers who enjoy crafting low-level C/C++ code for embedded systems, SOCs, and microcontrollers. Our perfect candidate is primarily a software engineer but also has a strong grasp of the hardware architecture where their code operates; someone who recognizes that every bit of data and every clock cycle is crucial. At the core of AWS Machine Learning servers lie custom Amazon-designed silicon chips, designed to deliver faster, more capable, and more precise machine learning for our clients. We need adept software engineers to expand the team responsible for developing the essential embedded software stack pivotal to the functionality of these cutting-edge system-on-chips (SoCs). Your contributions will directly influence the execution and management of hardware accelerated neural network models within the SOC's Neuron Cores. You will collaborate closely with our architecture and design teams in hardware/software co-design efforts, working on both firmware and custom hardware that facilitate ML within our accelerator chips. Our goal is to make deep learning accessible to everyday software developers and democratize access to industry-leading infrastructure; you will help realize this vision from the ground up. This is a dynamic and challenging role where you will collaborate with thought leaders across various technology domains. We are seeking individuals with high standards for themselves and their colleagues, always striving for ways to enhance the performance, quality, and cost-effectiveness of our products. We want you to push beyond what is currently achievable and transform the industry. You will receive onboarding that covers the fundamentals of ML and our accelerators, so no prior ML experience is required; however, any background in ML will be advantageous.
