Senior Systems Software Engineer

This is a remote position.

Senior Systems Software Engineer

At Patterned Learning AI . We believe in an AI economy powered by human agency. We envision a world where AI is accessible to all, a world that demands processing power that is better, faster, and more affordable than is available today. AI applications are currently constrained by the limitations of the Graphics Processing Unit (GPU), a technology originally developed for the gaming market and soon to become the weakest link in the AI economy.

Enter Patterned Learning AI 's LPU™ AI Inference Technology. Specifically engineered for the demands of large language models (LLMs), the Language Processing Unit outpaces the GPU in speed, power, efficiency, and cost-effectiveness. The quickest way to understand the opportunity is to watch the following talk – Patterned Learning AI .link/scspdemo.

Why join Patterned Learning AI ? AI will change humanity forever, and we believe preservation of human agency and self determination is only possible if AI is made affordably and universally accessible. Patterned Learning AI ’s LPUs will power AI from an early stage, and you will get to leave your fingerprint on civilization.
