ByteDance's Inference Infrastructure team is building the next generation of cloud-native, GPU-optimized orchestration systems to support rapidly growing AI workloads and enable developers to bring AI from research to production at scale.
Requirements
- Strong understanding of large model inference, distributed and parallel systems, and/or high-performance networking systems.
- Hands-on experience building cloud or ML infrastructure in areas such as resource management, scheduling, request routing, monitoring, or orchestration.
- Solid knowledge of container and orchestration technologies (Docker, Kubernetes).
- Proficiency in at least one major programming language (Go, Rust, Python, or C++).
- Experience contributing to or operating large-scale cluster management systems (e.g., Kubernetes, Ray).
- Experience with workload scheduling, GPU orchestration, scaling, and isolation in production environments.
- Hands-on experience with GPU programming (CUDA) or inference engines (vLLM, SGLang, TensorRT-LLM).
Responsibilities
- Design and build large-scale, container-based cluster management and orchestration systems with extreme performance, scalability, and resilience.
- Architect next-generation cloud-native GPU and AI accelerator infrastructure to deliver cost-efficient and secure ML platforms.
- Collaborate across teams to deliver world-class inference solutions using vLLM, SGLang, TensorRT-LLM, and other LLM engines.
- Stay current with the latest advances in open source (Kubernetes, Ray, etc.), AI/ML and LLM infrastructure, and systems research; integrate best practices into production systems.
- Write high-quality, production-ready code that is maintainable, testable, and scalable.
Other
- Successful candidates must be able to commit to an onboarding date by end of year 2026.
- Please state your availability and graduation date clearly in your resume.
- Excellent communication skills and ability to collaborate across global, cross-functional teams.
- Passion for system efficiency, performance optimization, and open-source innovation.
