AI-Native Cloud Platform. Backed by Y Combinator.
About the role
We're building out our own GPU capacity and we're looking for an experienced contractor to help us stand up high-performance GPU clusters. The work runs from design review through bring-in, and you'll leave behind the operational foundation our team needs to run them. Found on 1752vc Careers, the job board for startup and VC roles.
What they're looking for
- You've built and operated NVIDIA HGX or DGX clusters in production at a GPU cloud, HPC center, or AI lab
- Hands-on experience with InfiniBand: subnet management and UFM, fabric bring-up, and diagnosing degraded links and optics. NDR or newer
- GPU node bring-up and burn-in: firmware, BMC/Redfish, DCGM, NCCL testing, PXE and imaging, and XID error triage
- Parallel storage experience: WEKA, VAST, GPFS, Lustre, or similar
- Equally effective on the data center floor and remotely, including directing colo remote hands
- You troubleshoot methodically across hardware, fabric, and software, document as you go, and communicate clearly with technical and non-technical people
