## About the role

The Runtime & GPU Systems team builds and operates secure, high-performance environments for multi-tenant Kubernetes platforms at scale. Our team sits at the intersection of container runtimes, lightweight virtualization, GPU infrastructure, and Linux systems engineering. We partner closely with security, platform, and GPU infrastructure teams to deliver robust, isolated, and efficient execution environments for AI-driven workloads.

## What they're looking for

- 3+ years of experience in systems, platform, infrastructure, or production engineering at scale
- Strong hands-on experience with Kubernetes, container orchestration, and cloud-native architectures, including controllers, operators, or scheduling extensions
- Experience designing, implementing, or operating secure execution environments (container runtimes, sandboxed workloads, or virtualized systems)
- Practical experience with lightweight virtualization and sandboxing technologies (e.g., Kata Containers, gVisor, KubeVirt, QEMU)
- Experience supporting GPU-accelerated workloads in multi-tenant environments, including GPU scheduling, isolation, device passthrough, mediated devices, or virtualization
- Proficient in systems-oriented programming (Go, C/C++, Rust, Bash) with strong Linux internals knowledge
