About Makora
Makora is a venture-backed AI lab building building tools to automate algorithm discovery and GPU performance engineering. There are two core components:
MakoraGenerate writes GPU kernels in CUDA, HIP, and Triton using LLMs
MakoraOptimize automatically selects and swaps GPU kernels in combination with tuning inference engine (vLLM, SGlang, etc..) hyperparameters to optimize performance
Requirements
Super smart
Cool and chill
Down to work hard
Nice to Have
Experience training/fine-tuning LLMs for code generation
Experience with CUDA/HIP/Triton/etc
Experience with vLLM or SGlang or the like
