About Us
Hippocratic AI is the leading generative AI company in healthcare. We have the only system that can have safe, autonomous, clinical conversations with patients. We have trained our own LLMs as part of our Polaris constellation, resulting in a system with over 99.9% accuracy.
About the Role
We're seeking an experienced LLM Inference Engineer to optimize our large language model (LLM) serving infrastructure. The ideal candidate has:
- Extensive hands-on experience with state-of-the-art inference optimization techniques
- A track record of deploying efficient, scalable LLM systems in production environments
What You'll Do
- Design and implement multi-node serving architectures for distributed LLM inference
- Optimize multi-LoRA serving systems
- Apply advanced quantization techniques (FP4/FP6) to reduce model footprint while preserving quality
- Implement speculative decoding and other latency optimization strategies
- Develop disaggregated serving solutions with optimized caching strategies for prefill and decoding phases
- Continuously benchmark and improve system performance across various deployment scenarios and GPU types
What You Bring
Must-Have:
- Experience optimizing LLM inference systems at scale
- Proven expertise with distributed serving architectures for large language models
- Hands-on experience implementing quantization techniques for transformer models
- Strong understanding of modern inference optimization methods, including:
- Speculative decoding techniques with draft models
- Eagle speculative decoding approaches
- Proficiency in Python and C++
- Experience with CUDA programming and GPU optimization
Nice-to-Have:
- Contributions to open-source inference frameworks such as vLLM, SGLang, or TensorRT-LLM
- Experience with custom CUDA kernels
- Track record of deploying inference systems in production environments
- Deep understanding of performance optimization systems
