Engineering Manager, ML Compilers (Triton / Kernel DSLs): our view in 3 lines...

  • The Role:This role leads Meta’s ML compiler stack for custom AI accelerators and Triton-based kernel DSLs.
  • The Person:The person will lead teams building the DSL compiler toolchain, kernel enablement, and production deployment, while partnering with hardware, kernel, runtime, framework, and model teams and mentoring engineers.
  • Requirements:The ideal candidate has 5+ years of experience managing a software team, experience with compiler architecture and development, and experience with Triton, MLIR, LLVM, PyTorch compiler stack internals, and high-performance computation programming models.

About the role

As a Software Engineering Manager in the MTIA Software team, you will lead the development of Meta's ML compiler stack for custom AI accelerators — the layer that enables kernels, both hand-written and generated, run efficiently on MTIA silicon. Your team defines how Triton and lower-level DSLs map onto MTIA hardware, shaping language extensions, target-specific optimizations, and the kernel authoring experience used by kernel engineers, product groups, and model teams across Meta. The work spans open-source contributions and internal compiler development, directly influences ISA and architecture roadmap decisions, and carries top-level executive visibility as a key AI infrastructure initiative. The team culture celebrates deep technical contributions with extensive knowledge-sharing, including external conference talks and published research.

Responsibilities

  • You will drive the development of the DSL compiler toolchain, including ML compiler integration, GEMM and non-GEMM kernel enablement, collectives support, and next-generation low-level DSLs. You will lead teams of engineers and technical leaders delivering large-scale projects across compiler infrastructure, kernel libraries, and production deployment on multiple accelerator generations
  • You will stay technically engaged, contributing hands-on through AI tools to evaluate the technical direction and quality across your teams. You will form trusted cross-functional partnerships with hardware/architecture, kernel, runtime, framework, and model teams while actively shaping strategy and roadmap, and you will balance near-term deployment commitments against long-term compiler investments. You will build and mentor engineers into AI-era leaders while maintaining high engineering craft standards
Minimum Qualifications

  • 5+ years of experience in managing a software team in a fast-paced capacity
  • Experience with compiler architecture and development, particularly with ML compilers or domain-specific languages (DSLs)
  • Proven understanding and experience in executing full product life-cycles (prototyping, deployment, and support)
Preferred Qualifications

  • Experience working closely with hardware architectures such as SIMD, GPU, RISC-V, AI accelerators, and influencing architecture roadmaps
  • Experience with Triton, MLIR, or LLVM compiler infrastructure
  • Experience with open-source community engagement and upstream contributions
  • Demonstrated ability to integrate AI tools to optimize/redesign workflows and drive measurable impact (e.g., efficiency gains, quality improvements)
  • Demonstrated ability to integrate AI tools to optimize/redesign workflows and drive measurable impact (e.g., efficiency gains, quality improvements)
  • Experience with PyTorch compiler stack internals such as Inductor
  • Demonstrated ongoing AI skill development (e.g., prompt/context engineering, agent orchestration) and staying current with emerging AI technologies
  • Demonstrated ongoing AI skill development (e.g., prompt/context engineering, agent orchestration) and staying current with emerging AI technologies
  • Experience with different programming models for high-performance computations, e.g., GPU CUDA programming or OpenCL or OpenMP programming
  • Experience adhering to and implementing responsible, ethical AI practices (e.g., risk assessment, bias mitigation, quality and accuracy reviews)
  • Experience adhering to and implementing responsible, ethical AI practices (e.g., risk assessment, bias mitigation, quality and accuracy reviews)
  • Experience with kernel-level performance optimization for AI accelerators
