Senior AI and ML HPC Cluster Engineer

As a member of the GPU AI/HPC Infrastructure team, you will provide leadership in the design and implementation of ground-breaking GPU compute clusters that run demanding deep learning, high-performance computing, and computationally intensive workloads. We seek a technical leader to identify architectural changes and/or completely new approaches for our GPU Compute Clusters. As an expert, you will help us with the strategic challenges we encounter including: compute, networking, and storage design for large scale, high-performance workloads, effective resource utilization in a heterogeneous compute environment, evolving our private/public cloud strategy, capacity modeling, and growth planning across our global computing environment.

• Provide leadership and strategic guidance on the management of large-scale HPC systems including the deployment of compute, networking, and storage.
• Develop and improve our ecosystem around GPU-accelerated computing including developing scalable automation solutions.
• Build and maintain AI and ML heterogeneous clusters on-premises and in the cloud.
• Create and cultivate customer and cross-team relationships to reliably sustain the clusters and meet user evolving user needs.
• Support our researchers to run their workloads including performance analysis and optimizations.
• Conduct root cause analysis and suggest corrective action; proactively find and fix issues before they occur.

• Bachelor’s degree in Computer Science, Electrical Engineering or related field or equivalent experience.
• Minimum 5+ years of experience designing and operating large scale compute infrastructure.
• Experience with AI/HPC advanced job schedulers, such as Slurm, K8s, PBS, RTDA or LSF.
• Proficient in administering CentOS/RHEL and/or Ubuntu Linux distributions.
• Solid understanding of cluster configuration management tools such as Ansible, Puppet, Salt.
• In-depth understanding of container technologies like Docker, Singularity, Podman, Shifter, Charlie cloud.
• Proficiency in Python programming and Bash scripting.
• Applied experience with AI/HPC workflows that use MPI.
• Experience analyzing and tuning performance for a variety of AI/HPC workloads.
• Passion for continual learning and staying ahead of emerging technologies and effective approaches in the HPC and AI/ML infrastructure fields.

• Background with NVIDIA GPUs, CUDA programming, NCCL and MLPerf benchmarking.
• Experience with Machine Learning and Deep Learning concepts, algorithms and models.
• Familiarity with Infini Band with IPoIB and RDMA.
• Understanding of fast, distributed storage systems like Lustre and GPFS for AI/HPC workloads.
• Familiarity with deep learning frameworks like PyTorch and Tensor Flow.
