YC-Backed AI Startup Seeks Top 0.1% Systems Engineer
2025-04-04
Thunder Compute, a Y Combinator-backed AI infrastructure startup, is hiring a systems engineer. They're building technology to drastically improve GPU utilization via sharing and oversubscription at the CUDA API layer. Their core software network-attaches GPUs over TCP, allocating compute where needed most, resulting in 5x+ utilization gains with minimal performance overhead. This is a $100B+ opportunity, requiring a top-tier systems engineer with exceptional C++ skills, deep hardware/GPU architecture knowledge, and experience in low-latency environments (like hedge funds or NVIDIA). The role offers a chance to make a significant impact in a high-growth startup.
