What Thinking Machines Lab says about it
ABOUT THINKING MACHINES The mission of Thinking Machines is to build AI that extends human will and judgment. We are training frontier models with Inkling, developing Tinker to let people make models their own, and crafting interfaces that broaden human-AI communication. We believe the future worth building is human, and we're hiring people who want to build it. ABOUT THE ROLE We're hiring a software engineer to help build and scale the distributed systems that power Tinker, our post-training platform. You'll work on the infrastructure that schedules training and sampling jobs across large GPU clusters, keeps state consistent under failure, and gives every Tinkerer a fast, reliable path from idea to a customized model. This role sits at the center of Tinker's reliability and scale.
