We are seeking an experienced Senior Technical Validation Engineer to drive validation and performance engineering for Machine Learning (ML), High-Performance Computing (HPC) frameworks, GPU software stacks, and cluster environments.

This role requires good understanding and experience in ROCm, CUDA, GPU architecture, ML frameworks, CI/CD systems, benchmarking, and competitive analysis.
You will lead cross-functional initiatives across validation, automation, test development, performance tuning, and system scalability, ensuring delivery of high-quality, high-performance software for next-generation AI and HPC workloads.

Key Responsibilities:

• Lead validation for ML/AI models: accuracy testing, performance benchmarking, regression, drift detection, A/B testing
• Test ML frameworks: Py Torch, Hugging Face, MLFlow experiment tracking
• Validate wide varieties of AI models to ensure correctness in distributed training or inference
• Perform GPU testing & profiling: ROCm/CUDA validation, performance profiling, memory/thermal analysis, multi-GPU scaling
• Validate HPC frameworks, distributed runtimes, compilers, and GPU libraries
• Build scalable CI/CD workflows for ML/HPC validation. Develop automated test pipelines using Docker, Kubernetes, GitHub Actions, Jenkins
• Validate cloud-based AI workloads on AWS Sage Maker, Lambda, and S3
• Test the benchmarks under containerized and virtualized GPU environments
• Design and implement automated validation pipelines for ML frameworks (e.g., Py Torch, Tensor Flow, JAX) across GPU platforms.
• Develop and maintain benchmarking suites for AI models and HPC workloads, focusing on performance, scalability, and regression detection.
• Multi-node validation efforts using orchestration tools (e.g., Slurm, MPI, Kubernetes) to simulate real-world distributed training and inference.
• Collaborate with hardware and software teams to validate GPU hardware platforms (NVIDIA CUDA, AMD ROCm) for ML and HPC readiness.
• Analyze performance metrics using profiling tools (e.g.,rocprof) and provide actionable insights.
• Drive test content development for emerging AI workloads, including LLMs, vision models, and scientific computing benchmarks.
• Perform bottleneck analysis, hyperparameter validation, and competitive benchmarking
• Mentor junior engineers and contribute to validation strategy, tooling, and best practices.

Preferred Expereince :

• Bachelor’s or Master’s degree in Computer Science, Electrical Engineering, or related field.
• 8+ years of experience in validation engineering, ML infrastructure, or HPC performance testing.
• Strong hands-on experience with GPU platforms (NVIDIA CUDA, AMD ROCm) and their software ecosystems.
• Deep understanding of AI model architectures, training/inference workflows, and ML performance bottlenecks.
• Proven experience with CI/CD systems, Git, Docker, and automated test frameworks.
• Expertise in multi-node orchestration and distributed system validation.
• Familiarity with HPC benchmarks (e.g., HPL, HPCG, MLPerf) and AI model benchmarking methodologies.
• Proficiency in scripting and automation (Python, Bash, YAML) in Linux environments.
• Strong communication, documentation, and cross-functional collaboration skills.
