About Mirendil

Mirendil — a frontier lab building systems that excel at AI R&D. Backed by Kleiner Perkins.

About the role

Our research moves only as fast as our compute. We’re looking for an engineer who can turn a lot of GPUs across a lot of providers into one fleet that researchers never have to think about. Your work determines how much of our compute actually goes to research. Some example areas you might work on: Fleet bring-up and lifecycle - take new clusters from delivered to running real jobs fast, and keep them healthy as they age Found on 1752vc Careers, the job board for startup and VC roles.

More about this role

Mirendil is a tech-first company focused on solving core bottlenecks that unlock step-change acceleration across science and technology. Our first goal is to democratize frontier AI R&D across scientific disciplines. We are building a frontier AI research company and training our own models end-to-end.

Our research moves only as fast as our compute. We’re looking for an engineer who can turn a lot of GPUs across a lot of providers into one fleet that researchers never have to think about. Your work determines how much of our compute actually goes to research. Some example areas you might work on:

Fleet bring-up and lifecycle - take new clusters from delivered to running real jobs fast, and keep them healthy as they age

Scheduling and allocation - decide what runs where, so pretraining, RL, and inference share capacity without fighting over it

Reliability at scale - detect and route around failing hardware automatically, before it costs us a training run

Capacity strategy - plan with research what compute we’ll need, and help decide what we buy, from whom, and when

Utilization - measure what every GPU-hour produces, and keep raising it

We offer a base salary of $300,000–$400,000...
