Employer job description
From Hedra's posting. “We” and “our” refer to the employer.
About Hedra
Hedra is the platform, models, and infrastructure for visual intelligence.
We build models and systems that push the frontier of visual intelligence, along with the infrastructure required to make those models fast, efficient, reliable, and accessible at scale.
We’re a small, highly technical team in San Francisco, backed by a16z and other leading investors. Researchers and engineers at Hedra work closely across boundaries, own problems end to end, and have significant influence over both what we build and how we build it.
The Role
We’re looking for an Inference Optimization Engineer to work alongside our research team on making state-of-the-art visual models fast and efficient at inference time.
You’ll work at the boundary between research and systems, taking new model architectures and figuring out how to run them efficiently on modern hardware. That means understanding where time and memory are being spent, identifying opportunities for algorithmic and systems-level improvements, and implementing optimizations across model architecture, inference algorithms, runtimes, kernels, and distributed execution.
