We are growing our delivery team with a Middle DevOps Engineer to run dependable Kubernetes and Linux platforms for AI and research compute. You will automate and refine GPU orchestration with Kubernetes and Volcano, using Python and Shell while partnering directly with clients. Apply now to help deliver scalable, efficient compute environments

Responsibilities

• Deploy and run GPU-enabled Kubernetes clusters and standalone Linux compute environments to keep scheduling and performance efficient
• Implement and support Volcano job scheduling, including queue setup, POD execution, GPU allocation, and namespace quota enforcement
• Administer Kubernetes platforms end-to-end, including namespaces, RBAC, resource quotas, and workload isolation practices
• Build and maintain Python and Shell automation to streamline job submission, resource provisioning, and system reporting
• Collaborate with orchestration, optimization, and observability teams to improve scheduling efficiency, capacity utilization, and researcher workflows
• Monitor platform health and resource usage, providing data and feedback to satisfy optimization and reporting needs
• Propose improvements to infrastructure, tooling, and automation workflows to increase performance, scalability, and usability
• Ensure operations deliver a smooth and effective experience for researchers running diverse AI and computational workloads

Requirements

• Hands-on experience with 2+ years in DevOps or infrastructure engineering roles supporting complex, large-scale environments
• Expert-level knowledge of Kubernetes administration and orchestration, including namespaces, POD scheduling/distribution, PVC, NFS, and resource quota management
• Practical experience with Volcano scheduler for GPU job execution, queue configuration, workload prioritization, and Kubernetes integration
