Job Description:

Job Description Job Description Quadric has created an innovative general purpose neural processing unit (GPNPU) architecture. Quadric's co-optimized software and hardware is targeted to run neural network (NN) inference workloads in a wide variety of edge and endpoint devices, ranging from battery operated smart-sensor systems to high-performance automotive or autonomous vehicle systems. Unlike other NPUs or neural network accelerators in the industry today that can only accelerate a portion of a machine learning graph, the Quadric GPNPU executes both NN graph code and conventional C++ DSP and control code. Role The AI Inference Engineer in Quadric is the key bridge between the world of AI/LLM models and Quadric unique platforms. The AI Inference Engineer at Quadric will [1] port AI models to Quadric platform; [2] optimize the model deployment for efficient inference; [3] profile and benchmark the model performance. This senior technical role demands deep knowledge of AI model algorithms, system architecture and AI toolchains/frameworks. Responsibilities Quantize, prune and convert models for deployment Port models to Quadric platform using Quadric toolchain Optimize inference deployment for latency, speed Benchmark and profile model performance and accuracy Collaborate across related areas of the AI inference stack to support team and business priorities Develop tools to scale and speed up the deployment Make Improvement to SDK and runtime Provide technical support and documents to customers and developer community Requirements Bachelor’s or Master’s in Computer Science and/or Electric Engineering. 5 years of experience in AI/LLM model inference and deployment frameworks/tools experience with model quantization (PTQ, QAT) and tools experience with model accuracy measures experience with model inference performance profiling experience with at least one of the following frameworks: onnxruntime, Pytorch, vLLM, huggingface-transformer, neural-compressor, llamacpp Proficiency in C/C++ and Python Demonstrate good capability in problem solving, debug and communication Benefits Health Care Plan (Medical, Dental & Vision) Retirement Plan (401k, IRA) Life Insurance (Basic, Voluntary & AD&D) Paid Time Off (Vacation, Sick & Public Holidays) Family Leave (Maternity, Paternity) Short Term & Long Term Disability Training & Development Work From Home Free Food & Snacks Stock Option Plan
