Member of Technical Staff - Pre-Training Infra
Reflection, San Francisco, CA +2
The role
- Build and scale distributed training systems that power frontier model pre-training.
- Work closely with research teams to design and operate large-scale training runs for foundation models.
- Develop infrastructure that enables efficient training across thousands of GPUs using modern distributed training frameworks.
- Optimize training throughput, stability, and efficiency for large model training workloads.
- Collaborate directly with pre-training researchers to translate experimental ideas into scalable, production-ready training systems.
- Improve performance of distributed training workloads through optimization of communication, memory usage, and GPU utilization.
- Build and maintain training pipelines that support large-scale datasets, checkpointing, and experiment iteration.
- Debug and resolve performance bottlenecks across distributed training stacks including model parallelism, GPU communication, and training runtime systems.
