[Remote] Mojo Libraries Engineer
Note: The job is a remote job and is open to candidates in USA. Modular is on a mission to revolutionize AI infrastructure by rebuilding the AI software stack. As a Mojo Libraries Engineer, you will design and implement core abstractions across the Mojo Standard Library and kernel libraries, empowering developers to integrate with AI systems and accelerate innovation.
Responsibilities
• Partner with teams across Modular—including compiler, kernel, and runtime engineers—to design APIs that are ergonomic, expressive, and performance-conscious. Your work will directly shape the developer experience and deliver high business impact by enabling critical customer workloads and accelerating platform adoption.
• Design and implement abstractions that enable the development and optimization of kernels and algorithms running on GPUs and CPUs, delivering top-tier performance and accuracy throughout the GenAI inference solution stack.
• Optimize library functionality for performance, memory efficiency, and hardware utilization.
• Participate in design discussions and code reviews to uphold high engineering standards.
• Collaborate with other engineering teams to align the standard library with broader platform needs.
• Contribute to a fully open source project — everything you build will be public and part of our GitHub repo.
• Engage with the open source community to support high-quality contributions and foster a welcoming, inclusive environment.
Skills
• Experience with GPU programming languages like CUDA or OpenCL.
• Deep understanding of GPU architecture (memory hierarchies, tensor cores, etc.) and how it influences algorithm and API design.
• Proficiency in modern systems languages (C++, Rust, or Swift), with strong skills in low-level programming, performance optimization, and memory management.
• Passion for both library design and performance, with a commitment to following modern API patterns and language evolution in C++, Rust, and Swift ecosystems.
• Hands-on open source experience — either through meaningful contributions or by maintaining and reviewing community submissions.
• A collaborative mindset, intellectual curiosity, and drive to solve complex technical challenges as part of a high-performing team.
• Strong alignment with Modular's cultural values and enthusiasm for building a thoughtful, inclusive engineering culture.
• Familiarity with GPU assembly languages such as PTX and SASS.
• Knowledge of cutting-edge APIs such as CUTLASS or Triton.
• Prior experience with Mojo, especially with accepted contributions to the Mojo Standard Library.
• Familiarity with LLVM, MLIR, or Python, particularly in systems or compiler-related contexts.
• An advanced degree in Computer Science or a related field.
