About the role
Reporting to a Team Lead in the frameworks team you will play an important role in designing, implementing, optimising, maintaining and supporting the software that ensures Graphcore hardware enjoys first-class support in popular machine learning frameworks such as PyTorch.
As a graduate framework engineer in our team you will learn what it is like to be part of a SCRUM team working on delivering new features, working on, e.g., performance optimisations, reviewing code changes, writing technical documentation, working with upstream communities and supporting users.
We have a very collaborative culture, and you will be in a position where you can learn from very talented engineers operating at the cutting edge of the machine learning industry. In our frameworks team we endeavour to offer the opportunity to do two “temporary rotations” during your graduate programme, so that you can also learn from other teams.
About youWe are looking for a talented and passionate graduate to join the ML Frameworks team here at Graphcore. You are not expected to know everything when you start, but you are expected to be driven, pro-active and keen to learn. It is beneficial but not essential for candidates to have a working knowledge of C++, Python and AI/ML.
Essential:
- On track or achieved a 2:1 or above in Electronic Engineering, Computer Science or related subject area
We are not looking for an instant expert but graduates with the hunger to learn, develop and contribute to Graphcore's future.
Graduates at Graphcore
A tailored onboarding and induction programme, that will get you up to speed with life at Graphcore, including a deep understanding of how the business operates. During your induction technical specialists will host knowledge sharing sessions, providing you the opportunity to build your network.
Once in your team, you can expect hands on experience, in a supportive environment to promote your learning. A typical day would involve working closely with peers and your manager to solve challenges as they arise.
You will also benefit from a buddy, mentor and access to talent development team that will support your softer skill development.
In addition to a very competitive salary, you will also have the freedom to make your own choices that work for you, starting with unlimited holiday. Our offices provide a well-stocked kitchen with healthy food, drinks and snacks and our very own barista! We have an active social scene across our offices too - from cycling, yoga, running and football right through to a board game group. Other benefits include;
- Flexible Holiday Policy
- Private Medical Insurance & Health cash plan
- Dental plan
- Pension matched up to 5%
