Requirements

Candidates must possess a Bachelor's degree in Computer Science, with a Master's or PhD preferred, and have over 5 years of software development experience. A strong foundation in distributed systems design principles and proficiency in languages such as Python, Java, or C++ are essential. Experience with cloud distributed storage, databases, file systems (AWS, Azure), scaling microservices, ML frameworks like PyTorch or TensorFlow, and contributions to open-source projects in distributed systems or data processing are highly valued. Understanding of ML fundamentals, particularly in enterprise applications, and experience designing systems that handle failure modes and restarts are also beneficial.

Responsibilities

The Infrastructure Engineer will design and implement the core architecture for distributed training and inference systems capable of handling enterprise-scale data. Responsibilities include crafting integration points between data warehouses, ML processing engines, and proprietary Graph Neural Network technology, and building sophisticated orchestration systems for optimizing computational resources. The role also involves developing clean APIs and abstractions for decoupled system components, creating scalable, cloud-native infrastructure, and collaborating with customers on real-world deployments.
