Develop and operate Kubernetes-based orchestration systems for GPU cluster provisioning and workload scheduling.
Build automated provisioning systems that enable GPU capacity to be allocated, scaled, and reclaimed efficiently across multiple tenants.
Design solutions for workload placement, resource management, and cluster lifecycle operations.
Partner closely with hardware, networking, infrastructure, and artificial intelligence platform teams to align orchestration systems with real-world cluster architectures.
Improve reliability, security, scalability, and operational maturity of the orchestration platform.
Build tooling and automation that simplifies infrastructure management and enhances developer and customer experiences.
Contribute to architectural decisions, engineering standards, and best practices as the platform evolves.

Requirements

Strong hands-on experience with Kubernetes and container orchestration in production environments.
