Job Description

About the Role RadixArk is seeking a   Member of Technical Staff — Training   to build and scale the systems that train frontier AI models. You will work on large-scale distributed training infrastructure for LLMs and generative models, pushing the limits of scale, efficiency, accuracy and reliability across 10k, or 100k+ of GPUs. This role sits at the intersection of ML, systems, and performance engineering. Your work will directly impact how next-generation AI models are trained and scaled. This is a deeply technical, high-impact role for engineers who enjoy solving hard systems problems at extreme scale. Requirements

3+ years of experience in ML systems, or large-scale training infrastructure

Experience building or operating large-scale agentic post-training systems.

Experience working on training / inference correctness or other precision-related problem

Experience debugging performance and stability issues in large post-training jobs

Experience improving training or inference efficiency.

Strong Plus

Experience training 100+ billion-parameter models

Experience with train / inference optimization for large-scale RL or other production workload.

Familiarity with training stacks (e.g. Megatron-LM, FSDP, torchtitan, etc.) and inference stack (e.g. SGLang, vLLM, etc.)

Familiarity with post-training framework (e.g. Miles, Slime, veRL, Prime-RL, AReaL, etc.)

Experience with RDMA, InfiniBand, NVLink, NCCL/RCCL, or high-speed GPU interconnects

Contributions to ML systems open-source projects

Experience with checkpointing, fault recovery, and elastic training.

Experience building infrastructure for agentic post-training, such as async rollout pipelines, sandbox, or harness system.

Responsibilities

Contribute to open-source large-scale post-training infrastructure Miles, and inference system SGLang.

Optimize throughput, scalability, and hardware efficiency

Improve reliability and fault tolerance for long-running training jobs

Develop training frameworks and infrastructure tooling

Collaborate with model researchers to support frontier experiments

Debug and resolve cross-layer performance bottlenecks

Build observability systems for training performance and reliability

Drive capacity planning and cluster utilization strategies

Contribute to long-term training infrastructure architecture

About RadixArk RadixArk is an infrastructure-first company built by engineers who've shipped production AI systems, created SGLang (20K+ GitHub stars, the fastest open LLM serving engine), and developed Miles (our large-scale RL framework). We're on a mission to democratize frontier-level AI infrastructure by building world-class open systems for inference and training. Our team has optimized kernels serving billions of tokens daily, designed distributed training systems coordinating 10,000+ GPUs, and contributed to infrastructure that powers leading AI companies and research labs. We're backed by well-known infrastructure investors and partner with Nvidia, Google, AWS, and frontier AI labs. Join us in building infrastructure that gives real leverage back to the AI community. Compensation We offer competitive compensation with meaningful equity, comprehensive benefits, and flexible work arrangements. Compensation depends on location, experience, and level.
