Description

We are looking for a Senior Systems HPC Engineer to play a key role in building our hyperscaler platform, working across its core components while analyzing and optimizing the performance of large-scale GPU clusters at the intersection of hardware and software.

You will operate across the full stack,from hardware and system software to networking (InfiniBand/RoCE), virtualization (KVM/QEMU), and distributed communication layers (e.g., MPI, NCCL).

In this role you will:

  • Focus on understanding system behavior across multiple layers, identifying performance bottlenecks, and driving improvements that shape how our clusters are built, operated, tuned, and validated.
  • Investigate and troubleshoot performance issues of GPU cluster under real workloads (training and inference)
  • Evaluate and integrate new hardware, system configurations and tuning approaches through software stack
  • Support complex performance-related escalations from internal teams and customers
  • Work closely with infrastructure, software engineering and hardware vendor teams (e.g. NVIDIA, Mellanox, Intel)
  • Contribute to hardware and cluster qualification (acceptance), ensuring systems meet performance expectations

We expect you to have:

  • 5+ years of professional experience in system-level software development (focused on performance optimization, low-level programming).
  • 3+ years of hands-on experience with Linux systems (administration, troubleshooting, and performance tuning).
  • In-depth understanding of server architecture, including PCIe devices, NICs, Linux OS/Kernel, and high-performance computing (HPC) systems.
  • Strong proficiency in one or more performance-oriented programming languages (C/C++, Go, Python).

Benefits & Perks:

  • Competitive compensation
  • Career growth and learning opportunities
  • Flexibility and ownership
  • Collaborative and innovative culture
  • Opportunity to work on impactful AI projects
  • International environment and talented teams
