About Us At Lemurian Labs, we're reimagining the foundations of computing to make AI accessible to everyone. Our mission is to remove the limits of scale, hardware, and cost that hold back innovation, so the people solving humanity's hardest problems can move faster.
We're building a new kind of software stack: a hardware-agnostic platform that makes every system — from a laptop to a supercomputer — feel like one seamless engine. Developers can write once, run anywhere, and get state-of-the-art performance across any chip, any cloud, at any scale. It's a complete rethink of how software and hardware interact — designed for the era beyond Moore's Law.
We're not looking for the comfortable or the conventional; we're looking for the bold. The engineers who crave frontier problems, who want to bend the limits of what's possible, who see infrastructure not as a constraint but as a canvas. If you want to build the foundation for the next era of AI and change what humanity can achieve in the process, join us.
About the Role We're looking for a Front End Compiler Engineer to own the ingestion layer of our high-performance, portable AI compiler. This is where the journey begins — you'll build the systems that parse, validate, and lower representations from frameworks like PyTorch, StableHLO, ONNX, and MLIR dialects into our internal compiler IR, setting the stage for everything that follows.
If you're drawn to the elegance of well-designed language frontends, care deeply about correctness and coverage, and want your work to directly enable next-generation AI models to run anywhere — this is the role for you.
