Responsibilities

  • Design, implement and maintain large scale HPC/AI clusters with monitoring, logging and alerting.
  • Manage Linux job/workload schedules and orchestration tools.
  • Develop and maintain continuous integration and delivery pipelines.
  • Develop tooling to automate deployment and management of large-scale infrastructure environments.
  • Deploy monitoring solutions for servers, networks, and storage.
  • Perform troubleshooting from bare metal to application level.
  • Develop, re-define and document standard methodologies for internal teams.
  • Support Research & Development activities and engage in POCs/POVs for future improvements.
