Обязанности
- At , we are building the "engine room" of the AI revolution. We are seeking a Staff Cloud Hypervisor R&D Engineer to serve as the lead architect for our next-generation virtualization stack. In this role, you will move beyond standard virtualization to design a "Greenfield" hypervisor environment where GPUs, DPUs, and high-speed interconnects are first-class citizens. You will be responsible for eliminating the "virtualization tax," ensuring our cloud infrastructure delivers bare-metal performance for the world’s most demanding AI/ML workloads.
Требования
- 7+ Years of Experience: Proven track record in hypervisor internals, kernel development, or low-level systems programming.
- Deep Virtualization Expertise: Expert-level knowledge of CPU virtualization (Intel VT-x, AMD-V) and memory virtualization (EPT/NPT, HugePages). You should be comfortable discussing the nuances of VMExit overhead.
- Hardware-Software Integration: Experience working with specialized AI hardware, including GPUs, InfiniBand/RoCE NICs, and SmartNICs/DPUs.
- Programming & Tooling: Mastery of C and C++ is required; proficiency in Rust for modern systems programming is highly preferred. Experience with QEMU, KVM, and Linux kernel debugging tools (perf, ftrace, eBPF).
- I/O Mastery: Deep understanding of VirtIO, vhost-user, and hardware-accelerated I/O paths.
- Technical Leadership: Experience leading complex, cross-functional projects that bridge the gap between hardware engineering and cloud control planes
