job listing

I was recently contacted by a recruiter at Spellbrush, which is a research firm training AI models to produce anime characters, and now looking to get into games. I cannot apply for IRL reasons, and I am happy working on hydrus, but I talked with the guy and he was sensible and professional and understood the culture. There are several anime-fluent programmers in the hydrus community, so I offered to put the listings up on my weekly post today. If you have some experience and are interested in getting paid to do this, please check it out:

Spellbrush design and train the diffusion models powering both nijijourney and midjourney -- some of the largest-parameter count diffusion models in the world, with a unique focus on anime-style aesthetics. Our team is one of the strongest in the world, many of whom graduated from top universities like MIT and Harvard, worked on AI research at companies like Tencent, Google Deepmind, and Meta, and we have two international math olympiad medalists on our team.

We're looking for a generalist engineer to help us with various projects from architecting and building out our GPU orchestrator, to managing our data pipelines. We have one of the largest GPU inference clusters in the world outside of FAANG, spanning multiple physical datacenters. There's no shortage of interesting distributed systems and data challenges to solve when generating anime images at our scale.

Please note that this is not a remote role. We will sponsor work visas to Tokyo or San Francisco if necessary!

I did not find time for much duplicates auto-resolution work this week, so back to that.
