About The Company:

Our client builds advanced computing infrastructure for large-scale AI, scientific research, and other demanding workloads.

Job Description:

We are seeking an HPC Orchestration Architect to shape how computing resources are deployed and managed across a distributed platform. You will lead architectural decisions involving Kubernetes, virtualization, and workload placement, working closely with specialists in compute, storage, and networking.

Key Responsibilities:

• Create scalable, resilient designs for orchestrating research and AI workloads across multiple locations.
• Define how containers, virtualized systems, and compute resources should be managed within the HPC platform.
• Work with other architects to ensure orchestration designs fit the broader compute, storage, and network environment.
• Turn product needs and operating constraints into clear designs that engineering teams can implement.
• Evaluate new technologies and use performance data to guide platform improvements.
• Help engineering teams apply technical standards and deliver platform changes efficiently.
• Gather requirements from customers and stakeholders to inform practical system designs.

Qualifications:

• Approximately 10-12 years of relevant architecture or engineering experience preferred.
• Strong understanding of CPUs, GPUs, and other accelerators in large-scale computing environments.
• Hands-on experience building, deploying, and scaling Kubernetes clusters.
• Knowledge of virtualization, containers, orchestration, and the performance effects of workload placement.
• Experience with HPC clusters or parallel computing, including Linux optimization or performance profiling.
• Familiarity with distributed file systems and their effect on compute workloads.
• Ability to explain architectural decisions and collaborate across technical teams. A related degree is preferred, but relevant experience will be considered.
