Summary:

Meta Reality Labs brings together a world-class team of researchers, developers, and engineers to create the future of virtual and augmented reality, which together will become as universal and essential as smartphones and personal computers are today. The compute performance and power efficiency requirements of Virtual and Augmented Reality require custom silicon.In this position, you would support research and development into a compiler tool-chain for state-of-the-art deep learning hardware components optimized for AR/VR systems. You will be part of our efforts to research, architect, design and implement a compiler and runtime stack, which compiles PyTorch models down to binaries for hardware accelerator blocks. You will be part of a team that includes compiler, machine learning algorithms and software, firmware and ASIC experts.

Required Skills:

Research Engineer, ML Compiler (PhD) Responsibilities:

1. Analyze and design effective compiler passes and optimizations. Research, implement, and/or enhance code generation targeting machine learning accelerators.

2. Research into new techniques to map ML graphs to hardware implementations, model data-flows, create cost-benefit analysis and estimate silicon power and performance.

3. Contribute to the development of machine-learning libraries, intermediate representations, export formats, and analysis tools.

4. Conduct design and code reviews. Evaluate code performance, debug, diagnose and drive resolution of compiler and cross-disciplinary system issues.

5. Analyze and improve the efficiency, scalability, and stability of our toolchains.

6. Interface with other compiler-focused teams to evaluate and incorporate their innovations and vice versa.
