About the role
Senior technical field engineer responsible for end-to-end deployment, validation, and operation of large-scale GPU compute infrastructure for CoreWeave customers, spanning facility design, rack-level deployment, network fabric (InfiniBand/RoCE), and production-ready HPC environments.
Responsibilities
- Serve as the primary technical point of contact for customers, establishing strong technical relationships and ensuring their success with CoreWeave's cloud infrastructure offerings, focusing on bare-metal compute infrastructure and end-to-end cluster delivery within high-performance compute (HPC) environments.
- Own the technical path from facility and rack design to a validated, production-ready supercomputer—spanning logical design, infrastructure engineering, provisioning, validation, operations, and support.
- Lead bring-up and acceptance of new large-scale GPU clusters, driving InfiniBand/RoCE fabric validation, HPC performance benchmarking (e.g., NCCL, ib_write_bw), and remediation of fabric, optics, firmware, and node-level issues to meet customer performance targets.
- Define and operationalize models for managing customer bare-metal fleets at rack-level-and-up—IT service, break-fix, network and firmware management—including Bare Metal as a Service (BMaaS) and customer self-service patterns.
- Partner with Data Center Operations, Fleet Operations, and Networking teams to align facility, hardware, and fabric readiness with customer go-live timelines and operational SLAs.
- Review and advise on customer-facing technical contract terms, including service scope, operational responsibilities, SLAs, isolation requirements, and support boundaries.
- Lead proof of concept initiatives to showcase the value and viability of CoreWeave's solutions within specific environments.
- Drive technical leadership and direction during customer meetings, presentations, and workshops, addressing any technical queries or concerns that arise.
- Act as a virtual member of CoreWeave's Compute Infrastructure, Fleet Operations, and Networking engineering teams, identifying opportunities for product enhancement and collaborating with engineers to implement your suggestions.
Qualifications
- B.S. in Computer Science or a related technical discipline, or equivalent experience
- 7+ years of proven experience as a Solutions Architect, Field Engineer, Infrastructure/Systems Engineer, or Technical Account Manager in Cloud Infrastructure, focusing on building or operating distributed systems or HPC/cloud services, with an expertise focused on bare-metal compute infrastructure and large-scale GPU cluster delivery
- Experience with modern rack-scale GPU server hardware (e.g., NVIDIA HGX, GB200/GB300, and Vera Rubin NVL72 systems)
- Expertise with high-speed interconnects (InfiniBand, RoCE, NVLink)
- Expertise with the firmware/BMC/BIOS layer
- Hands-on experience bringing up, validating, and operating large GPU clusters—including bare-metal PXE boot, hardware health, fabric validation, and HPC acceptance/performance testing—and integrating bare metal with orchestration layers such as Kubernetes and Slurm
- Expert-level Linux system administration and command-line troubleshooting, paired with strong networking fundamentals (routing, fabric topologies, TCP/IP)
- Proven track record with building customer relationships, communicating clearly and the ability to break down complex technical concepts to both technical and non-technical audiences
