Senior / Staff AI Compiler Engineer

About

We’re working with a well-funded, fast-growing AI hardware company building an open, high-performance compute platform that spans custom silicon, RISC-V CPUs, and a modern MLIR-based compiler stack — all based in Toronto.

They’re looking for Senior to Staff-level AI Compiler Engineers to join teams working at the intersection of machine learning, compilers, and cutting-edge hardware.

Responsibilities

• Development of a modern MLIR-based AI compiler
• Optimisation of neural network graphs for custom AI hardware
• Building compiler passes, transformations, and custom dialects
• Close collaboration with hardware, architecture, and systems teams
• Performance-focused C++ and Python development bridging ML frameworks to low-level execution

Qualifications

• Strong experience in compiler or systems development
• Proficiency in C++ (Python experience a plus)
• Experience or strong interest in MLIR, LLVM, or AI compilers
• Background in performance-critical systems, hardware-aware software, or ML frameworks
• Experience with AI accelerators, CPUs, GPUs, or custom silicon is highly desirable

There are multiple openings across shows and experience levels - if you’re passionate about compilers, AI, and hardware, this is a team worth speaking to.
