Company mission

To make frontier AI ubiquitous, and to provide tailor-made AI to all the builders.

Role

Who you are

  • High technical competence for writing custom CUDA kernels and pushing GPUs to their limits. High expertise on the distributed computation infrastructure of current generation GPU clusters
  • Overall understanding of the field of generative AI, knowledge or interest in fine-tuning and using language models for applications

What the job involves

  • Mistral AI is hiring an expert in the role of serving and training large language models at high speed on GPUs
  • Writing low-level code to take all advantage of high-end GPUs (H100) and max out their capacity
  • Rethinking various part of the generative model architecture to make them more suitable for efficient inference-Integrating low-level efficient code in a high-level MLOps framework

Our take

Founded by Facebook AI researchers, Mistral AI focuses on developing open-source generative AI models to "make AI useful." It emerged in early 2023, quickly achieving a $260 million valuation.

With the upcoming release of Mixtral in 2024, featuring up to 176 billion parameters, Mistral is under pressure to deliver. Mixtral's open-source nature has sparked concerns about potential misuse, yet Mistral remains a formidable competitor in the AI landscape, challenging models from Google and Meta.

Recently, Mistral secured a massive $640 million funding round, raising its valuation to $6 billion. This Series A funding, led by General Catalyst and including investors like Lightspeed Venture Partners and Andreessen Horowitz, underscores significant interest in alternatives to ChatGPT.
