<div class="content-intro"><p style="text-align: left;"><span style="font-size: 12pt;">SambaNova is a leader in next-generation AI infrastructure, delivering a full-stack inference platform for customers worldwide. At the core of SambaNova's technology is the RDU (Reconfigurable Dataflow Unit) — a chip built on a dataflow architecture rather than the traditional GPU model. Its decode performance is especially strong for agentic workloads like multi-turn agents, code generation, and long-running applications. RDUs are packaged into SambaRack, rack-scale hardware that lets customers deploy state-of-the-art models with better performance, greater energy efficiency, and faster time to value.</span></p></div><h3><strong>About the team</strong></h3> <p>The compiler team at SambaNova powers the RDU through a unique compilation strategy. By fusing kernels into dataflow graphs that run across the entire accelerator architecture, we avoid sequential kernel launches and eliminate the memory traffic that bottlenecks conventional hardware. This is a key differentiator and unlike any other product on the market. </p> <h3><strong>About the role</strong></h3> <p>As a Principal Compiler Engineer you'll lead critical areas of our compiler including the IR and pass infrastructure, model lowering and partitioning, tensor tiling, memory management, and mapping operations onto the fabric. You'll operate in a tightly coupled environment, influencing hardware design to optimize performance, and bring the technical judgement, cross functional diplomacy, foresight, and low-level programming depth that integrated system design demands. You'll work with senior team members to ensure career growth and engagement, mentor and develop early career talent, actively recruit for the organization, and participate in interviews.</p> <h3><strong>Responsibilities</strong></h3> <ul> <li>Lead compiler engineering through ensuring standard methodologies, enterprise product insertion and process evolution</li> <li>Work with peers, domain experts, developers, customers, and work across the enterprise seeking optimal solutions</li> <li>Develop, integrate, and implement products</li> <li>Provide support for proposals in key areas aligned with core team competencies</li> </ul> <h3><strong>Required Qualifications</strong></h3> <ul> <li>B.S. in Computer Science, Computer Engineering, or related field</li> <li>Deep theoretical understanding of compiler fundamentals</li> <li>Experience building and deploying software products</li> <li>Experience with one or more deep learning frameworks (i.e. TensorFlow, PyTorch) is a plus</li> <li>Experience with common compiler development practices and methodologies</li> <li>Excitement about high-performance systems engineering and performance debugging</li> <li>An appreciation for process and developing cross-disciplinary collaboration</li> </ul> <h3><strong>Preferred Qualifications</strong></h3> <ul> <li>PHD in Computer Science, Computer Engineering, or related field</li> <li>Experience with MLIR</li> <li>Familiarity with machine learning models and frameworks</li> <li>Familiarity with accelerated computing</li> <li>Exposure to dataflow architectures</li> </ul><div class="content-pay-transparency"><div class="pay-input"><div class="description"><p>Base Salary Range:</p></div><div class="title">Base Pay Range</div><div class="pay-range"><span>$180,000</span><span class="divider">—</span><span>$255,000 USD</span></div></div></div><div class="content-conclusion"><p><strong><span style="font-family: helvetica, arial, sans-serif; font-size: 12pt;">Submission Guidelines<br></span></strong><span style="font-family: helvetica, arial, sans-serif; font-size: 12pt;">Please note that in order to be considered an applicant for any position at SambaNova Systems, you must submit an application form for each position for which you believe you are qualified. </span></p> <p><strong><span style="font-family: helvetica, arial, sans-serif; font-size: 12pt;">EEO Policy<br></span></strong><span style="font-family: helvetica, arial, sans-serif; font-size: 12pt;">SambaNova Systems is an Equal Opportunity/Affirmative Action Employer.
