Junior Member of Technical Staff – Platform Infrastructure, GPUs

About us

Lyceum is building AI-native GPU infrastructure for the next generation of deep-tech companies. We’re an early-stage team moving fast, obsessed with customer value, and focused on building a category-defining product.

Our mission

Work with our team on designing and building a GPU platform for 10,000+ users. You'll tackle problems across cold-start times, performance, scalability, robustness, and security - at a scale where naive approaches break and every design decision matters.

Your focus

• Platform development: Build and improve core platform services in Go and Python: the systems that allocate, schedule, and manage GPU resources for our customers.
• Performance and reliability: Profile, benchmark, and optimise critical paths. Investigate and fix issues in production.

Your KPIs

• Code shipped and components owned
• Time-to-resolution on assigned issues
• Ramp speed and expanding scope of ownership over time

Your profile

We consider candidates from diverse backgrounds, with a deep love for technical challenges and the desire to take on ownership beyond what's reasonably expected.
