Member of Technical Staff — Training

About the Role

RadixArk is seeking a Member of Technical Staff — Training to build and scale the systems that train frontier AI models.

You will work on large-scale distributed training infrastructure for LLMs and generative models, pushing the limits of scale, efficiency, accuracy and reliability across 10k, or 100k+ of GPUs. This role sits at the intersection of ML, systems, and performance engineering.

Your work will directly impact how next-generation AI models are trained and scaled.

This is a deeply technical, high-impact role for engineers who enjoy solving hard systems problems at extreme scale.

Requirements

• 3+ years of experience in ML systems, or large-scale training infrastructure

• Experience building or operating large-scale agentic post-training systems.

• Experience working on training / inference correctness or other precision-related problem

• Experience debugging performance and stability issues in large post-training jobs

• Experience improving training or inference efficiency.

Strong Plus

• Experience training 100+ billion-parameter models

• Experience with train / inference optimization for large-scale RL or other production workload.

• Familiarity with training stacks (e.g. Megatron-LM, FSDP, torchtitan, etc.) and inference stack (e.g. SGLang, vLLM, etc.)

• Familiarity with post-training framework (e.g. Miles, Slime, veRL, Prime-RL, AReaL, etc.)

• Experience with RDMA, InfiniBand, NVLink, NCCL/RCCL, or high-speed GPU interconnects

• Contributions to ML systems open-source projects

• Experience with checkpointing, fault recovery, and elastic training.

• Experience building infrastructure for agentic post-training, such as async rollout pipelines, sandbox, or harness system.

Responsibilities

• Contribute to open-source large-scale post-training infrastructure Miles, and inference system SGLang.

• Optimize throughput, scalability, and hardware efficiency

• Improve reliability and fault tolerance for long-running training jobs

• Develop training frameworks and infrastructure tooling

• Collaborate with model researchers to support frontier experiments

• Debug and resolve cross-layer performance bottlenecks

• Build observability systems for training performance and reliability

• Drive capacity planning and cluster utilization strategies

• Contribute to long-term training infrastructure architecture

About RadixArk

RadixArk is an infrastructure-first company built by engineers who've shipped production AI systems, created SGLang (30K+ GitHub stars, the fastest open LLM serving engine), and developed Miles (our large-scale RL framework). Founded by AI infrastructure veterans from xAI and NVIDIA, we're on a mission to democratize frontier-level AI infrastructure by building world-class open systems for inference and training. Our team has optimized kernels serving billions of tokens daily, designed distributed training systems coordinating 10,000+ GPUs, and contributed to infrastructure that powers leading AI companies and research labs.

Compensation

Depending on background, skills, and experience, the expected annual salary range for this position is $200,000 - $400,000 USD + equity.
