About the role

Leads cluster deployment and validation from rack to production for TensorWave's AI compute platform, owning network bring-up, fabric validation, GPU node integration, and end-to-end cluster acceptance gates tied to production readiness.

Responsibilities

  • Own the cluster deployment playbook and drive its evolution: staged bring-up, automated config push, link/optics validation, cabling verification against L1 port maps, and fault triage during deployment windows.
  • Lead deployment engineering across concurrent cluster builds, through team leads and on-site engineers; coordinate daily with Data Center Integration field teams and cabling vendors.
  • Drive deployment velocity engineering: cut bring-up time per cluster through tooling, pre-staging, and defect-source elimination, and set the targets the team is measured against.
  • Own defect feedback loops to Network Engineering (design), Layer One (cabling quality), and vendors (hardware/optics RMA patterns), holding those partners accountable to resolution.
  • Define spares, test equipment, and deployment tooling requirements per site, and standardize them across sites.

Qualifications

  • 10+ years across network deployment, cluster/HPC bring-up, or large-scale infrastructure delivery, including managing engineers in a field/deployment setting.
  • Hands-on fabric bring-up experience at scale (hundreds of switches / thousands of links per deployment).
  • Strong operational rigor: building and enforcing playbooks, gates, metrics, and blameless defect loops.
  • Team leadership with schedule accountability across multiple concurrent builds or sites.
