About the team

The AI team at Degen is a small group of researchers and engineers obsessed with pushing the limits of generative models. We move fast, publish selectively, and ship constantly. Every model we build ends up in the hands of real users within weeks.

About the role

You'll build the pipes that make AI fast, reliable, and cheap at Degen. From training clusters to inference APIs, you'll own the infrastructure layer that lets our AI team move at maximum velocity.

Responsibilities

• Design and maintain scalable training and inference infrastructure.
• Optimize GPU utilization across cloud and on-prem resources.
• Build developer tooling that helps AI researchers ship faster.
• Partner with the AI team to productionize new models.
• Own reliability and cost efficiency of ML systems.

What we're looking for

• Experience running distributed training jobs at scale.
• Proficiency with Kubernetes, Ray, or similar orchestration systems.
• Strong Python and systems programming skills.
• Experience with CUDA or hardware-level optimization is a plus.
