The team
About The Team
Cluster SRE is six engineers across the seven regions. Each region has a primary and a secondary; you will be one of those for your region. The team coordinates daily, deploys weekly, and rotates a global pager.
Reports to the head of cluster engineering. Primary on a single region; rotates secondary for one neighboring region.
The role
What you'll do
- 01 Bring up new B200 / B300 / MI300X racks: cabling, ToR config, NCCL/RCCL all-reduce validation, MFU baseline tests.
- 02 Drive InfiniBand fabric to spec — NDR / XDR depending on the rack — and chase residual bit-error budget down to zero.
- 03 Run capacity planning across seven regions: forecast demand, model power and thermal headroom, work with procurement on lead times.
- 04 Own the regional incident response. P1 incidents page within fifteen minutes; resolution target is four hours.
- 05 Build and maintain the bring-up runbook so the second hire after you can do their first rack solo.
- 06 Carry the global pager about one week per six, alongside runtime and customer engineering.
What we're looking for
- Five-plus years operating large compute clusters — supercomputing centers, hyperscaler infra, or HPC at a national lab count.
- Deep InfiniBand and Ethernet RoCE experience: subnet manager tuning, fabric debugging, lossless networking.
- Strong Linux fundamentals: kernel parameters, NUMA topology, kernel cgroup limits.
- Comfort writing Go or Python for tooling. We are not strict about which.
- Calm under load. You will be the named person on a $50M-ARR account when something goes wrong.
Nice to have, not required
- DGX H100 / H200 / B200 bring-up history.
- Experience with NVIDIA Bright / Base Command Manager.
- Bare-metal provisioning systems: Tinkerbell, MAAS, Razor, or in-house equivalents.
- Procurement / vendor management experience.
