Distributed training engineer @ Soniox d.o.o.

Opis delovnega mesta

At Soniox, we are building world-class speech and multimodal AI systems and scaling their training to the limits of modern hardware. As a Distributed training engineer, you will work closely with researchers to design and optimize large-scale training infrastructure. Your work will directly impact the throughput, stability, and performance of our models, enabling rapid experimentation and unlocking new capabilities across speech, video, and language.

This role demands strong engineering fundamentals, deep systems understanding, and a passion for squeezing every last bit of performance from modern compute infrastructure.

Od kandidatov zahtevamo

In this role, you will:
- Collaborate with researchers to build systems-efficient training loops for cutting-edge speech and video models.
- Profile and optimize distributed training workloads across our internal infrastructure.
- Design and implement improvements to our in-house training framework to increase hardware utilization and throughput.
- Apply the latest algorithmic and systems-level techniques to improve scalability, reproducibility, and stability in large-scale training.
- Investigate and resolve performance bottlenecks across the ML stack, from dataloaders to kernel fusion to network latency.

You might thrive in this role if you:
- Have experience working with large-scale or multi-modal ML pipelines.
- Enjoy diving into the internals of deep learning frameworks and distributed systems to make them faster and more reliable.
- Are proficient in Python and have strong software engineering practices.
- Understand how training kernels work and how to optimize them (e.g., CUDA, Triton, XLA, or custom ops).
- Are passionate about making ML training stable at scale, not just functional.
- Care deeply about correctness, reproducibility, and engineering craftsmanship.

O podjetju

Soniox is building the world's most advanced real-time conversational AI platform: designed to understand every conversation, in every language, anywhere. Our technology goes beyond speech-to-text: we deliver low-latency transcription, translation, and reasoning across 60+ languages, enabling businesses and developers to build next-generation products powered by voice.

We are innovating across the full stack of foundational AI for speech: from large-scale data acquisition and unsupervised dataset generation, to novel model architectures, training methodologies, and optimized inference engines. This holistic approach gives Soniox unmatched accuracy and efficiency compared to Google, OpenAI Whisper, AWS, and others.

Our API powers a wide range of applications: from live translation and meeting assistants to healthcare, call centers, enterprise productivity, and accessibility solutions.

Soniox is a fast-growing startup backed by global enterprise partners. Our engineering and product development hub is in Ljubljana, Slovenia, and we are expanding internationally. Our mission is simple but ambitious: make voice AI work for 8 billion people.
