About the job
Create technical content, reference pipelines, benchmarks, and developer-experience improvements that help ML researchers and training engineers use Spiral’s analytical database for data-intensive workflows.
What you'll do
- Write technical cookbooks and end-to-end examples, and build and maintain reference pipelines using real datasets.
- Produce benchmarks and writeups; turn developer feedback into product, SDK, and documentation improvements.
- Answer user questions, represent Spiral at conferences, and occasionally give talks or workshops.
What they ask for
- Hands-on ML or training-infrastructure experience, including familiarity with data-loading, video-decoding, or GPU-utilization challenges.
- Strong technical writing, with examples of published work.
- Fluency in Python and comfort with the PyTorch, Hugging Face, and data-pipeline ecosystem.
- Working understanding of GPUs, training loops, and performance bottlenecks; connections in developer or AI communities.
Nice to have
- Relevant open-source contributions or experience with columnar or analytical data formats.
- Prior DevRel, AI research, or research-engineering experience; an existing ML practitioner audience is secondary.
