Graphcore is seeking a PyTorch Engineer to join its Frameworks team in Bristol. In this role, you will build software that connects Graphcore accelerators with state-of-the-art machine learning frameworks, helping ML engineers and researchers get more from Graphcore hardware without changing their development workflows.
You will design, implement, optimize, and support features across PyTorch, Triton, and related technologies. Key responsibilities include contributing to upstream PyTorch, supporting hybrid Python and C++ extensions, and integrating compiler backend capabilities with torch.compile. Your work will improve compatibility, strengthen performance, and deliver cleaner developer experiences.
You will work within a SCRUM team that ships features, reviews code, writes documentation, and supports users. The team values maintainable code, thoughtful design, and curiosity about unfamiliar systems. Work happens through clear ownership, practical decisions, and close communication across software, AI/ML, research, and hardware teams. Engineers are trusted to investigate, speak up, and improve the codebase as they learn.
Required qualifications include strong core software engineering skills and a collaborative team mindset; experience developing Python libraries; experience building performant C++ applications in a commercial setting; understanding of linear algebra, floating-point arithmetic, or numerical analysis; confident use of Git and code review in a commercial team setting; and willingness to explore large, unfamiliar open-source codebases independently and with others.
Graphcore is one of the world's leading innovators in AI compute, developing hardware, software, and systems infrastructure for next-generation AI breakthroughs. As part of the SoftBank Group, Graphcore brings together deep expertise from AI research specialists, silicon designers, software engineers, and systems architects.
