SpaceXAI

Job Description

Job Description

SpaceX was founded under the belief that a future where humanity is out exploring the stars is fundamentally more exciting than one where we are not. Today, SpaceX is actively developing the technologies to make this possible, with the ultimate goal of making life multiplanetary and expanding consciousness to the stars. 

SpaceXSI is building Super Intelligence to understand the universe and help expand humanity's knowledge and capabilities. We work across the full Super Intelligence stack: compute (Colossus supercomputers), models (Grok), and applications (Grok Bot, Grok Build, Grok Imagine, Grok Voice, and X). We're creating a powerful flywheel where more compute trains better models, better models power more useful products, and what we learn from people using those products shapes what we build next.

ABOUT THE ROLE:

The RL infrastructure team is looking for an engineer to help develop our RL training framework. 

RESPONSIBILITIES:

  • Design and implement the systems backing all RL workloads at SpaceXAI, from small scale ablations to production training runs.
  • Profile, debug, and optimize end-to-end training performance
  • Improve scalability and observability of the RL stack
BASIC QUALIFICATIONS:
  • Experience building, debugging, and optimizing efficiency of large-scale distributed systems
  • Comfortable diving into unfamiliar areas and solving problems at all levels of the stack
  • Proficiency in Python, Jax, Rust, and/or C++
PREFERRED SKILLS AND EXPERIENCE:
  • Experience with large scale LLM training infrastructure
  • Strong knowledge of reinforcement learning techniques
  • Experience with RL numerics
COMPENSATION AND BENEFITS:

$180,000 - $440,000 USD

Base salary is just one part of our total rewards package at SpaceXAI, which also includes equity, comprehensive medical, vision, and dental coverage, access to a 401(k) retirement plan, short & long-term disability insurance, life insurance, and various other discounts and perks.

SpaceXAI is an equal opportunity employer. For details on data processing, view our Recruitment Privacy Notice.
