Annapurna's Machine Learning organization is dedicated to creating innovative, highly available, and cost-effective machine learning solutions for our customers. Our team has delivered Inf1, Inf2, and Trn1 instances types to our customers, lowering the cost of inference and training while minimizing downtime.

For a bit of background, Annapurna Labs was a startup company acquired by AWS in 2015. Nitro is "the heart" of AWS and runs on Annapurna accelerators. We've extended this success into Machine Learning by launching our first instance type in 2019. Our organization covers almost every hardware discipline, including silicon engineering, server design and verification, and production operations.

The validation team is at the forefront of the hardware lifecycle and supports the project at every step, from emulation, through initial bringup and validation, and even integration of customer feedback into tools and workloads. We are looking for a Software Development Engineer II to join the validation team and ensure our newest hardware will delight customers!
