Senior Software Engineer, ML API – AI Inference

Cerebras is building a new generation of disaggregated AI inference systems that combine GPU-accelerated prefill with ultra-fast decode on the Cerebras Wafer-Scale Engine.

We are hiring a Senior Software Engineer to build and evolve the ML API layer that makes this heterogeneous serving system accessible, reliable, and easy to use. You will own significant features and components across our inference APIs, model integration layer, and request-routing services, delivering a consistent experience across models and accelerator backends.

This role sits at the intersection of machine learning systems, API design, model serving, and distributed systems. You will translate evolving model capabilities and customer requirements into clear designs, lead implementation across multiple components, and carry features through validation, rollout, and production operation. Your work will help ensure that streaming, sampling, tool use, structured outputs, multimodal inputs, and model configuration behave correctly and consistently.

You will work closely with model enablement, compiler, runtime, cloud infrastructure, product, and customer-facing teams, as well as customers directly. This is a hands-on individual-contributor role with opportunities to lead small project teams, mentor engineers, and improve the quality and reliability of production inference software.
