The role

The Infrastructure Engineer will own and evolve multi-cluster GPU infrastructure. You will build developer productivity layers, improve reliability through automation, and guide compute spending decisions.

What you will do

  • Own and evolve multi-cluster GPU infrastructure
  • Drive architecture, automated provisioning, workload scheduling, reliability, cost optimization, and capacity planning
  • Build the developer productivity layer including CI/CD pipelines, automated testing, and internal tooling
  • Improve infrastructure reliability through monitoring, observability, infrastructure as code, and automation
  • Help guide compute spending decisions

Required qualifications

  • 3+ years building and operating production infrastructure at scale, ideally involving compute clusters, distributed training systems, or HPC
  • Hands-on experience with cluster management and workload orchestration systems such as Slurm, Kubernetes, or similar technologies
  • Experience designing and maintaining CI/CD pipelines, automated testing, and reliable build and deployment workflows
  • Strong systems engineering fundamentals: Linux, networking, storage, and distributed systems
  • Strong Python skills
  • Familiarity with training to profile a run and tell whether the bottleneck is data loading, communication, or compute
  • Track record of making infrastructure decisions that measurably improved reliability, developer productivity, or cost efficiency
  • Strong AI tooling skills using Claude Code, Cursor, or similar

Nice to have

  • Familiarity with GPU infrastructure, PyTorch, GPU profiling, and distributed training
  • Experience operating at tens-of-millions-scale compute spend
  • Multi-cloud or hybrid HPC/cloud infrastructure experience
  • Experience scaling from single cluster to multi-cluster orchestration
  • Background building experiment tracking, model registries, or ML pipeline tooling
