Cerebras Software Engineer to design and build core software for Cerebras engineering infrastructure. Focus on Python frameworks, orchestration, distributed execution, and developer tooling.
Responsibilities
We are hiring a Software Engineer to design and build the core software behind Cerebras engineering infrastructure.
This role is a strong fit for an engineer who enjoys reading unfamiliar code, understanding how systems fit together, debugging difficult problems, and improving the underlying design rather than applying one-off fixes.
We value strong software-engineering fundamentals, independent problem solving, and sound systems thinking more than familiarity with any particular infrastructure product.
Design, develop, test, and maintain Python frameworks and services used to orchestrate engineering workflows across machines and clusters.
Build reusable abstractions for scheduling, distributed execution, resource management, test execution, workflow planning, and failure recovery.
Define clear APIs, module boundaries, extension points, and data models that allow infrastructure systems to evolve without becoming difficult to maintain.
Reason about concurrency, asynchronous execution, multiprocessing, state management, retries, idempotency, cancellation, and partial failures.
Write high-quality automated tests and documentation for infrastructure that is expected to be reliable and widely reused.
Partner with platform, CI, release, quality, ML systems, and product engineering teams to understand requirements and translate them into scalable software designs.
