Cerebras Systems builds the world’s largest AI chip, 56 times larger than GPUs. Its novel wafer‑scale architecture delivers industry‑leading training and inference speeds, empowering machine learning users to run large‑scale ML applications without managing hundreds of GPUs or TPUs.

• Implement infrastructure to support high‑performance, low‑latency inference service.
• Deploy and configure Kubernetes services to ensure scalability and reliability of inference workloads.
• Optimize resource allocation and auto‑scaling policies to handle variable inference demand while minimizing operational costs.
• Integrate inference services with containerized environments using Docker and Kubernetes for orchestration.
• Ensure high availability and fault tolerance by implementing multi‑region deployments and disaster recovery strategies.
• Develop Python‑based scripts and APIs to streamline data preprocessing, inference execution, and post‑processing for real‑time inference tasks.
• Collaborate with machine learning engineers to validate inference accuracy and performance against functional and latency requirements.
• Triage and resolve defects in the service by analyzing logs, metrics, and distributed traces.
• Debug issues related to model deployment, container orchestration, or networking configurations, documenting steps to reproduce and root‑cause defects.
• Collaborate with cross‑functional teams to address performance regressions, scalability issues, or integration failures in the inference pipeline.
• Develop automated scripts to detect and mitigate common failure modes, improving system reliability.
• Author detailed technical documentation for infrastructure configurations, inference workflows, and APIs, ensuring clarity for internal teams and external customers.
• Work with product management and user experience teams to define requirements for inference service interfaces, including configuration, monitoring, and event logging.
• Document and track defects, enhancements, and release notes using tools like Jira and Git, ensuring version control and traceability.
• Participate in release planning and prioritization discussions to align infrastructure development with customer needs and business objectives.
