Sponsorship verdict
Sponsorship possible
One solid signal, not two — worth applying, and worth asking about sponsorship early.
- Employer is on a government sponsor recordThe US Department of Labor certified 1,731 H-1B/E-3 labor condition applications for this employer between Oct 2025 and Jun 2026 (latest Jun 2026) — the step every H-1B hire needs first. USCIS also records 1,112 H-1B approvals in FY2023. Source: LCA disclosure data (US Department of Labor (OFLC)).
- The posting doesn’t mention sponsorshipSilence isn’t a refusal — ask the recruiter before investing much time.
- No salary bar for this routeH-1B has no fixed salary bar: the employer must pay at least the prevailing wage for the role and area. Cap-subject employers enter a lottery weighted by wage level.

US H-1B: cap-subject employers enter a lottery weighted by wage level — Level I gets 1 entry, Level IV gets 4 (DHS projected selection odds ≈15% at Level I to ≈61% at Level IV). Universities and non-profit research employers are cap-exempt. The $100,000 fee for new petitions from abroad is currently blocked by a court order (appeal pending).

About the role
Job Details: Job Description: About the team: Network and Collectives owns the scale-out communication substrate for our AI accelerator - the NCCL equivalent for our hardware. We turn many chips into one machine: all-reduce, all-gather, reduce-scatter and point-to-point, made topology-aware and mapped onto the rack/pod interconnect. We are measured on real fabric across a pod, not on a single card, and we pair tightly with the Tray/Rack/Pod/Cluster HW pillar and the Multi-Node Runtime team. What you will do: • Design and implement collective algorithms tuned to our interconnect topology and bandwidth/latency profile. • Build a topology-aware transport layer over the tray/rack/pod. • Optimize end-to-end collective performance across multi-node pods; profile, find bottlenecks, and close the gap to fabric peak. • Co-design with HW on interconnect features, and with Multi-Node Runtime on partitioning, overlap, and scheduling. • Own correctness and numerical determinism of reductions across scale-out. Qualifications: • 5+ years AI/Systems/HPC software in C++; strong concurrency and lock-free design. • Hands-on with collective libraries (NCCL/MPI/etc) or scale-out communication. • Working knowledge of the communication patterns behind tensor, pipeline, and expert parallelism, and how they map onto collectives and the underlying fabric. • Performance engineering: profiling, bandwidth/latency tuning, roofline reasoning. Nice-to-have • Topology/placement algorithms; congestion control; multi-tenant fabrics. • Large-scale distributed training/inference exposure. • Experience with large-scale inference serving stacks (vLLM, SGLang, TensorRT-LLM, DeepSeek). • RDMA/InfiniBand/RoCE, GPUDirect-style transfers, or comparable fabric experience.
