Mage.Space | Machine Learning Engineer | NYC | Full-time (In-Person) | $150-250K | 0.50% - 1% Equity

Mage is the home for open-source AI enthusiasts, from beginner to expert.

Send resume here: mage@mage.space

We are a fast-moving seed stage start-up with seven-figure ARR who ship daily to millions. If you love open-source AI software & want to help integrate it into a product with a thriving community, Mage is the place for you.

Who You Are: Entreprenuerial Engineer who loves to hack and build. Expertise with and passion for open-source AI software (Diffusers, Torch, Transformers, vLLM, Ray, etc).

What You Will Do: You will own our machine learning backend, which is deployed to a world-wide distributed GPU cluster. Our system serves tens of thousands of base models across a variety of architectures that seamlessly integrate with hundreds of thousands of auxiliary models (LoRAs, ControlNets, IP Adapters, etc.). Optimizing and integrating the latest open-source models so that anyone can have fun and build with them is the goal.

Remote contract work is available as well.

Update: looks like the problem has been identified.

"We've identified a cause of degraded git operations, which may affect other GitHub services that rely upon git. We're working to remediate."

Yeah, this is not good. I've experienced other outages on their other products (e.g. GitHub Actions), but not even being able to do a basic git pull is an entirely different level.

The science keeps getting stronger and stronger on this.

Excited for the day when I do not have to justify to my friends & family why I do not want a drink.

Many point to the rise in depression and social isolation as a counterweight to the discussion on alcohol's negative effects, but my take is that once the social stigma of refusing a drink is severely lessened and social spaces adapt, that argument will also dissolve.

Update: builds have finally been going through.

Same here! Would be very curious to know if today and yesterday's outages are related in any way, or if this is a coincidence.

Really interesting. I had a few posts and comments get marked as [dead] and was curious about shadow banning. Nice to see it all documented here.

Agreed.

Board took the fastest growing commercial enterprise ever and the talent responsible for this real-world harry potter sh*t and decided to dance it underneath a flame for a giggle.

Something doesn't add up.
