Descripción de la vacante

Nscale is seeking a Director of Deployment Engineering to lead the systems engineering function responsible for deploying, validating, and operating the core compute platforms behind our AI infrastructure.

You will lead a high-performing team across systems, compute operations, and deployment validation, defining standards, tooling, and processes to ensure reliability and rapid delivery. Travel up to 50% will be required to support deployments and site readiness.

Formación

• Bachelors degree in Computer Science, Engineering, or a related technical field.
• 10+ years of systems engineering, compute operations, infrastructure, or engineering-management experience.
• Experience in a large cloud provider, hyperscale data center, or similarly complex infrastructure environment.
• Experience leading systems or compute operations teams in a high-availability production environment.
• Strong knowledge of Linux/Unix systems administration, OS-level tuning, server architecture, and GPU hardware.
• Experience with virtualization, containerization, and distributed systems, including Kubernetes and Docker.
• Experience with infrastructure-as-code and configuration-management tools such as Ansible, Terraform, Puppet, or Chef.
• Strong scripting, automation, and data center systems-design experience.
• Familiarity with system architecture, data synchronization, fault tolerance, state management, and distributed-system reliability.
• Experience with enterprise storage, networking, compute, monitoring, observability, or telemetry platforms.
• Excellent judgment, organizational skills, and written and verbal communication.
• The ability to influence technical direction, engineering priorities, and cross-functional decisions.

Responsabilidades

• Lead and scale the systems engineering team responsible for core platform systems, deployment readiness, and compute operations.
• Define and deliver multi-quarter systems engineering initiatives that improve deployment velocity, platform reliability, validation quality, and operational performance.
• Establish systems validation standards for servers, GPUs, networking, storage, and supporting infrastructure before production acceptance.
• Lead GPU burn-in and validation testing at scale, including thermal, power, stress, and performance qualification.
• Partner with infrastructure, network engineering, deployment, product, and operations leaders to balance long-term platform architecture with immediate business needs.
• Turn ambiguous, high-impact technical challenges into clear plans, priorities, milestones, and accountable execution.
• Drive alignment across interdependent teams working on compute platforms, internal infrastructure, developer tooling, and operational systems.
• Raise the bar for engineering quality, automation, observability, documentation, and operational excellence.
• Build scalable approaches for systems monitoring, telemetry, incident learning, and continuous platform improvement.
• Travel up to 50% to support deployments, site readiness, vendor collaboration, and operational execution.
