Screenshot of Morph (YC S23) Is Hiring Member of Technical Staff

Morph is an early-stage YC S23 startup building high-margin inference infrastructure and specialized code-generation models aimed at serving coding agents. Founded in 2025 and based in San Francisco, the company touts a rapid revenue trajectory (one person grew it from $0 to $10M) and an ambition to become a ten-person, $10B business; it expects every employee to drive over $30M of annual revenue. The stack covers kernels, model serving, routing, autoscaling and capacity, with work that includes autoresearch for kernels and speculative-decoding models. The role offers $180K-$350K salary, ~0.40% equity, requires US work authorization, and sits on a tiny team (about three people) with immediate production impact.

The Member of Technical Staff will diagnose and close gaps between theoretical hardware performance and real-world inference, tracing latency/throughput regressions from API layers down to individual kernels and validating that optimizations preserve model correctness. Responsibilities include optimizing batching, scheduling, routing, quantization and distributed execution, researching caching strategies, and working with NVLink and RoCE. Ideal candidates have 6+ years of experience, deep GPU/collectives/memory-bandwidth expertise, fluency in Python and CuTEdsl, comfort navigating unfamiliar codebases, and a track record optimizing complex production systems; interviews include a two-day work trial and direct collaboration with the founders.
