Role Description We're looking for a Developer Relations Engineer to help make vLLM the default way developers understand, build, and scale AI inference. This is not a generic DevRel role. We're looking for an inference systems educator-builder: someone who can understand vLLM as a deep LLM inference systems project, teach hard technical concepts clearly, and create public artifacts that help practitioners build better systems. - Write technical deep dives - Build demos - Create tutorials - Contribute to docs and examples - Host workshops - Help developers understand topics like: - KV cache - Continuous batching - Prefix caching - Prefill and decode - Quantization - GPU serving - Latency versus throughput - Model-server tradeoffs across vLLM and adjacent systems Your work will shape how the broader AI infrastructure community learns, adopts, and builds with vLLM. Qualifications - Bachelor's degree or equivalent experience in computer science, engineering, machine learning, systems, or similar. - Strong technical understanding of LLM inference systems, model serving, GPU inference, distributed runtimes, scheduling, batching, quantization, or related infrastructure. - Ability to credibly explain systems concepts such as KV cache, PagedAttention, continuous batching, prefill / decode scheduling, prefix caching, speculative decoding, tensor parallelism, data parallelism, or latency versus throughput tradeoffs. - Experience with vLLM or adjacent inference technologies such as SGLang, TensorRT-LLM, TGI, LoRAX, Ray Serve, FlashInfer, BentoML, Baseten-style serving platforms, or similar systems. - A strong public portfolio of technical artifacts, such as blogs, tutorials, workshops, courses, OSS docs, benchmark posts, architecture explainers, conference talks, demos, or runnable repositories. - Ability to write and teach for practitioners without sounding like a content marketer. - Strong engineering judgment, product taste, and ability to turn raw technical material into useful developer education. Requirements - Prior work in ML systems, distributed systems, HPC, compilers, GPU kernels, serving infrastructure, MLOps, developer tooling, or open-source infrastructure. - Experience creating technical content that teaches reusable mental models, not just product features. - Experience contributing to developer-facing open source through docs, tutorials, examples, cookbooks, demos, or community support. - Existing credibility or community presence in AI infrastructure, OSS, CUDA / GPU, Ray, vLLM, PyTorch, Modal, BentoML, Baseten, Predibase, Together AI, Anyscale, LMSYS, or similar ecosystems. - Ability to host workshops, create hands-on labs, present technical talks, and help developers move from concept to working code.
