About the role

Senior Infrastructure Engineer to build, scale, and operate a SLURM-on-Kubernetes HPC platform used for large-scale CAE and LPM training and data generation. Role spans platform engineering and hands-on support, collaborating directly with researchers to keep jobs running fast, safely, and reliably.

Responsibilities

  • Design, build, and maintain our SLURM-on-Kubernetes infrastructure, supporting large-scale distributed training and data generation workloads
  • Own cluster reliability, efficiency, and utilization across hundreds of GPUs
  • Partner directly with the Research team to debug job failures, diagnose performance bottlenecks, and improve iteration speed
  • Build and maintain containerized job environments (Docker, Enroot/Pyxis) for reproducible research workflows
  • Manage high-performance storage systems to support data-intensive CAE workloads
  • Develop tooling, automation, and observability to reduce operational overhead and catch issues before they impact the Research team
  • Contribute to capacity planning and infrastructure roadmap as the cluster and team scale
  • Build and implement a technical and scaling strategy for Research’s use of high-performance computing to achieve efficient large-scale model training and data generation workloads

Qualifications

  • 4-6 years of experience in infrastructure, platform, or HPC engineering roles
  • Hands-on experience with SLURM and Kubernetes, ideally running them together in production environments
  • Experience with containerization and orchestration for compute-heavy workloads (Docker, Enroot/Pyxis, etc)
  • Working knowledge of high-performance networking (Infiniband, RDMA, NCCL) in the context of distributed training
  • Experience managing HPC/ML storage systems at scale
  • Strong debugging skills across the stack - from scheduling and networking to individual job failures
  • Comfortable working directly with researchers and translating their needs into infrastructure improvements
  • Solid scripting/automation skills
