Clockwork.io – Software Driven Fabrics to increase GPU cluster utilization
Clockwork Systems was founded by Stanford researchers and veteran systems engineers who share a vision for redefining the foundations of distributed computing. As AI workloads grow increasingly complex, traditional infrastructure struggles to meet the demands of performance, reliability, and precise coordination. Clockwork is pioneering a software-driven approach to AI fabrics by delivering cross-stack observability to catch and quickly resolve problems, workload fault tolerance to keep jobs running through failures, and performance acceleration that dynamically routes and paces traffic to avoid congestion.
About the Role
We’re looking for a Senior HPC Developer who wants to grow in a startup environment while working on cutting-edge GPU and high-performance networking problems. You’ll work across multi-node, multi-GPU systems and have the opportunity to learn deeply across the full stack—from kernel and drivers to GPUs and networks.
This role is ideal for someone who is hands-on, curious, and excited to learn by building and debugging real systems at scale.
