About this role
Developer Experience Engineer
Fractile · London or Bristol · Full-time · Hybrid
About Fractile Fractile is building silicon, systems, and software that redefine the frontier of AI — running the world's largest language models at radically higher speed and lower cost. Founded in 2022, our 100+ person team spans hardware and software, and we're growing fast.
But revolutionary hardware only matters if developers can get their models running on it quickly and predictably. That's where you come in.
The Role We're looking for Developer Experience Engineers to design and build the tooling and workflows that companies will use to optimise their large language models on Fractile's next-generation inference hardware.
This is a role that sits at the intersection of deep systems knowledge and genuine empathy for developers. You'll shape how the outside world experiences Fractile — from a customer's first quickstart guide through to advanced performance profiling. You'll also be the voice of that external developer inside the company, turning real deployment pain into roadmap priorities.
You'll work in a tight hardware-software co-design loop alongside ML compiler, runtime, systems software, and silicon engineers — influencing APIs and abstractions before they're set in stone.
What You'll Do
• Design and build the tools customers use to run, optimise, and monitor large language models on Fractile hardware
• Build interfaces to diagnostic, profiling, and observability tools that help developers understand performance, debug issues, and optimise deployments
• Write documentation, quickstarts, reference examples, and tutorials that define a developer's first and lasting impression of our platform
• Act as the voice of the external developer inside Fractile — translating real deployment pain into roadmap priorities
• Collaborate with ML compiler, runtime, systems software, and silicon teams to shape APIs and abstractions early in the design process
What We're Looking For We care about depth of knowledge, empathy for developers, and a genuine drive to make complex things feel simple. You'll be a strong fit if you have:
• Strong software engineering fundamentals and experience building developer-facing tooling, SDKs, APIs, or platforms that other engineers depend on.
• Experience developing for inference hardware and/or GPUs (e.g. one year or more using CUDA or ROCm).
• A good
