ML Systems Engineer, ML Acceleration

Full-time

Motional

Mission Summary:
We are looking for a Machine Learning Systems Engineer to join our ML Acceleration team. In this role, you will be responsible for the core systems that enable our researchers to train frontier models at scale, focusing obsessively on speed, cost, reliability, and throughput. You will work at the intersection of machine learning research and high-performance systems engineering. Your work will directly impact our ability to scale large-scale distributed model training and reduce the time-to-convergence for our next generation of models.
What you'll be doing:
Performance Profiling & Optimization : Utilize profiling tools (e.g., Nsight, PyTorch Profiler) to identify bottlenecks in data loading, gradient computation, and communication. Implement optimizations like kernel fusion, sharding, and tiling to improve step time.
Distributed Training : Optimize distributed training pipelines using frameworks such as PyTorch Distributed.
Kernel Development : Design and maintain high-performance GPU kernels in Triton or CUDA for state-of-the-art ML workloads.
Data Pipeline Engineering : Optimize robust data loading pipelines that maximize training throughput.
What we're looking for :
Education : Bachelor’s, Master’s degree, or PhD in Computer Science, Computer Engineering, or a related technical discipline.
Software Engineering : Strong proficiency in Python.
ML Frameworks : Extensive hands-on experience with PyTorch.
ML Knowledge : Experience optimizing machine learning model execution during training and inference, alongside a strong understanding of fundamental machine learning concepts, architectures, and processes.
Problem Solving : Exceptional analytical and problem-solving skills, with a bias for action and a data-driven approach to technical challenges.
Motional is a driverless technology company making autonomous vehicles a safe, reliable, and accessible reality. We’re driven by something more.
Our journey is always people first.
We aren't just developing driverless cars; we're creating safer roadways, more equitable transportation options, and making our communities better places to live, work, and connect. Our team is made up of engineers, researchers, innovators, dreamers and doers, who are creating a technology with the potential to transform the way we move.
Higher purpose, greater impact.
We’re creating first-of-its-kind technology that will transform transportation. To do so successfully, we must design for everyone in our cities and on our roads. We believe in building a great place to work through a progressive, global culture that is diverse, inclusive, and ensures people feel valued at every level of the organization. Diversity helps us to see the world differently; it’s not only good for our business, it’s the right thing to do.
Scale up, not starting up.
Our team is behind some of the industry's largest leaps forward, including the first fully-autonomous cross-country drive in the U.S, the launch of the world's first robotaxi pilot, and operation of the world's longest-standing public robotaxi fleet. We’re driven to scale; we’re moving towards commercialization of our technology, and we need team members who are ready to embrace change and challenges.
Formed as a joint venture between Hyundai Motor Group and Aptiv, Motional is fundamentally changing how people move through their lives. Headquartered in Boston, Motional has operations in the U.S and Asia. For more information, visit and follow us on Twitter, LinkedIn, Instagram and YouTube.
