Senior ML Infrastructure Engineer
SambaNova, Austin, Texas +3
About the job
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.
About the team
The ML Infrastructure team builds and operates the inference stack that serves SambaNova's models on RDU accelerators, from request scheduling and caching through the public APIs in SambaStack and SambaCloud. We take inference techniques like speculative decoding, constrained decoding, and long-context serving from prototype to production, and own the accuracy infrastructure that gates every feature we ship. We work alongside the ML, compiler, runtime, and product teams, since most of what we build touches all four.
