Zusammenfassung

Sharon AI, Inc. is seeking a Network Deployment Engineer for UAE-based remote delivery to design, deploy, and validate InfiniBand and RDMA-equipped AI Factory networks.

You will lead on-site and remote deployment activities, emphasize scalable, repeatable processes, and collaborate with platform and infra teams to meet performance targets. You will work with Kubernetes/Slurm scheduling considerations, build out network fabrics, and help ensure smooth handover with comprehensive runbooks and

Qualifikationen

• 4 to 8+ years of experience in network engineering.
• Hands-on experience with InfiniBand and/or RDMA networking.
• Experience deploying and operating large-scale data centre network fabrics.
• Experience supporting GPU or AI/ML infrastructure at scale.
• Familiarity with NCCL, MPI and distributed training communication patterns.
• Automation and scripting skills (Python, Bash).
• Bachelor's degree in Computer Science, Electrical Engineering or related field.
• Strong communication and stakeholder management skills.

Aufgaben

• Bringing switches under Netris using the standard configuration.
• Deploying and configuring InfiniBand fabrics and leaf-spine Ethernet topologies based on NVIDIA SuperPOD reference designs.
• Configuring and tuning RDMA networking to meet design and performance targets for distributed training.
• Implementing network segmentation, redundancy and fault isolation for multi-tenant environments.
• Directing on-site staff and remote hands to fix optics and cabling faults, checking link health and error counters across the fabric.
• Planning and executing network testing including ATP, IST, fabric validation, and NCCL benchmarking at scale.
• Delivering repeatable deployments using infrastructure-as-code (Ansible, Terraform) and shared deployment scripts.
• Integrating network monitoring and telemetry so each AI Factory is visible to Operations from day one.

UAE-based remote working

About Sharon AI

Sharon AI is a neocloud, delivering trusted AI infrastructure organisations need to build, train and run AI at scale. We support customers across the full AI lifecycle, from training through to inference and agentic AI, drawing on a strong ecosystem of technology and co-location partners to deliver capability where it's needed. As the first neocloud to join NVIDIA's AI Compute Program, we're growing quickly, scaling our AI Factory platform to meet rising demand for advanced compute.

The Role

As Sharon AI continues to grow, we're looking for a talented Network Deployment Engineer to join our UAE Delivery squad and play an important role in deploying and delivering the network layer of our AI Factories, reporting to our Regional Delivery Manager.

AI Factories are the high-performance GPU compute environments that underpin Sharon AI's AI cloud, serving customers and internal teams running large-scale training, fine-tuning and inference. In this role, the Network Deployment Engineer will take the network and GPU fabrics of each AI Factory from preparation through build, validation and platform deployment to customer acceptance, with a strong focus on NVIDIA SuperPOD reference architectures, RDMA and InfiniBand. The role is focused on delivery rather than day-to-day operations: you'll both deploy and test, and look for ways to make each deployment faster than the last. You'll work closely with Infrastructure and Platform Deployment Engineers, on-site Data Centre Deployment Engineers, the Platform and Infrastructure teams and Operations, with exposure to cutting-edge technology at the forefront of AI infrastructure.

What You'll Be Doing

• Bringing switches under Netris using the standard configuration
• Deploying and configuring InfiniBand fabrics and leaf-spine (Clos) Ethernet topologies based on NVIDIA SuperPOD reference designs, including BGP and EVPN/VXLAN where used
• Configuring and tuning RDMA networking (RoCE and InfiniBand verbs) to meet agreed design and performance targets for distributed training
• Implementing network segmentation, redundancy and fault isolation for multi-tenant environments, and working with platform engineers on network-aware scheduling in Kubernetes or Slurm
• Directing on-site staff and the provider's remote hands to find and fix optics and cabling faults, and checking link health, optics and error counters across the fabric
• Planning and executing network testing, including acceptance testing (ATP), integrated system testing (IST), fabric validation, RDMA bandwidth and latency tests, and NCCL benchmarking at increasing scale
• Supporting fabric soak and cluster-level testing (L12), and working with GPU and switch vendors to fix defects before handover
• Delivering repeatable deployments using infrastructure-as-code (Ansible, Terraform) and shared deployment scripts, timing each step and proposing changes that shorten the cycle
• Feeding lessons learned back into standard playbooks and tooling, and to the Platform and Infrastructure teams
• Integrating network monitoring and telemetry (latency, congestion, packet loss) so each AI Factory is visible to Operations from day one
• Preparing handover documentation, runbooks and as-built records, supporting Operations during the hypercare window (up to one month), and reporting progress, risks and issues to the Regional Delivery Manager

What We're Looking For

• 4 to 8+ years' experience in network engineering, preferably in HPC or cloud environments
• Hands-on experience with InfiniBand and/or RDMA networking
• Experience deploying and operating large-scale data centre network fabrics
• Experience supporting GPU or AI/ML infrastructure at scale
• Familiarity with NCCL, MPI and distributed training communication patterns
• Automation and scripting skills (Python, Bash)
• Bachelor's degree in Computer Science, Electrical Engineering or a related field
• Strong communication and stakeholder management skills
• Ability to manage competing priorities in a fast-paced environment
• A proactive, collaborative and solutions-focused approach
• Strong attention to detail
• A genuine interest in AI, technology and what Sharon AI is building

Nice to have:

• NVIDIA SuperPOD or DGX-based deployment experience
• Netris or other software-defined networking platforms
• RoCEv2 and QoS tuning in Ethernet-based AI clusters, and storage networking (NVMe-oF, GPUDirect Storage)
• CCNP/CCIE, JNCIP/JNCIE, NVIDIA Networking or similar certifications
• Experience in GPU cloud or neocloud environments

Why Join Sharon AI?

• You'll be joining a rapidly growing technology business at an exciting stage of its journey, with the opportunity to work directly with the infrastructure and technology powering the next generation of AI.
• UAE-based remote working – work from wherever suits you, in the same time zone as your squad
• Birthday leave – take some extra time to celebrate your day
