Responsibilities
Push the limits of virtualization: Engineer hypervisors (KVM/QEMU) and fine-tune kernel subsystems, CPU topology, and NUMA configurations to drive down tail latencies for demanding AI and HPC workloads
Deploy and optimize at scale: Roll out new compute clusters with thousands of CPU and GPU nodes, validate offload capabilities on SmartNICs and DPUs, and fortify isolation across diverse workloads
Automate everything: Build intelligent telemetry systems and observability pipelines that surface kernel-to-orchestrator insights. Create automated incident-response tooling and rich performance dashboards to keep operations transparent and resilient
Diagnose the toughest issues: Lead deep-dive investigations into kernel crashes, kexec/kdump analyses, and performance regressions — distilling findings into actionable fixes, configuration improvements, or upstream contributions
Collaborate on the future of compute: Partner with hardware and kernel engineering teams to debug complex drivers, accelerate I/O pathways, and integrate emerging compute technologies such as TPUs and DPUs
Drive continuous improvement: Design chaos experiments, lead operational game days, and translate postmortems into meaningful SLOs that measure what truly impacts end users
Qualification
Required
5+ years of experience in site reliability, kernel, or virtualization engineering within large-scale or compute-intensive environments
Expert understanding of Linux internals — from schedulers and memory management to device drivers and kernel debugging
Hands-on experience with virtualization technologies such as KVM, QEMU, Xen, or VMware in production settings
Strong programming skills in C, Go, or Rust, along with practical knowledge of Infrastructure-as-Code and CI/CD systems
Familiar with SmartNICs, DPUs, or kernel-bypass networking technologies that enhance data throughput and reduce system overhead
Proven success scaling high-performance or HPC-grade infrastructure with measurable gains in reliability and efficiency
