  • Design networking architectures supporting RDMA, InfiniBand, NCCL, and high-bandwidth collective communication.
  • Build observability for AI workloads including utilization, throughput, training stability, and failure-mode analytics.
  • Implement checkpointing, restart, and fault-tolerance patterns for long-running training jobs at scale.
  • Drive cost optimization across compute, storage, and networking through scheduling, spot capacity, and right-sizing.
  • Develop developer tooling and paved-road workflows that let researchers launch experiments safely and efficiently.
  • Partner with research and applied ML teams to plan capacity for upcoming training runs.
  • Implement security controls, isolation, and access management for multi-tenant AI infrastructure.
  • Drive automation across cluster provisioning, lifecycle management, and configuration enforcement.

  • Experience with Kubernetes, Slurm, Ray, or similar scheduling systems for ML workloads.
  • Strong understanding of Linux internals, networking, and high-performance storage.
  • Experience with at least one major cloud provider’s ML infrastructure offerings.
  • Strong software engineering practices including testing, CI/CD, and code review.
  • Excellent communication and cross-functional collaboration skills.

Preferred Qualifications
  • Experience operating InfiniBand or RDMA networking at scale.
