About the Role

We are looking for exceptional AI Engineers to build the next generation of AI infrastructure and Machine Learning Systems (MLSys).

This role focuses on large-scale system infrastructure rather than model research. You will work on the core foundations that power large-scale AI training and inference systems, including Kubernetes cluster management, RDMA networking, unified KV Cache architecture, observability platforms, distributed systems, GPU orchestration, and CUDA kernel optimization.

You will collaborate closely with AI researchers, infrastructure architects, networking engineers, and platform teams to maximize the efficiency, scalability, and reliability of AI systems.

Observability & Reliability

Build end-to-end observability platforms for AI infrastructure.
Design monitoring, logging, tracing, alerting, and troubleshooting frameworks.
Develop performance dashboards and SLO-driven operational systems.
Improve maintainability, debuggability, and operational excellence of AI platforms.

Automation & Platform Engineering

Build automation tools for deployment, provisioning, monitoring, and operations.
Develop Infrastructure-as-Code (IaC) solutions using Terraform, Ansible, and related tools.
Build CI/CD pipelines and engineering productivity platforms.
Improve platform scalability and operational efficiency.
