About The Position

Clockwork.io – Software Driven Fabrics to increase GPU cluster utilization. Clockwork Systems was founded by Stanford researchers and veteran systems engineers who share a vision for redefining the foundations of distributed computing. As AI workloads grow increasingly complex, traditional infrastructure struggles to meet the demands of performance, reliability, and precise coordination. Clockwork is pioneering a software-driven approach to AI fabrics by delivering cross-stack observability to catch and quickly resolve problems, workload fault tolerance to keep jobs running through failures, and performance acceleration that dynamically routes and paces traffic to avoid congestion. We are currently seeking bright, versatile software engineers who will design the next generation of network acceleration software. Stay a nanosecond ahead of everyone else by joining our team in California!
