The Mission:

You'll be at the core of a high-impact team designing and scaling the infrastructure that powers Generative AI across an entire organisation .

Infrastructure that turns cutting-edge ideas into real-world deployment
This is a rare opportunity to help define how GAI is built, deployed, and scaled in a serious engineering environment.

What You'll Actually Be Doing

Architect and scale high-performance distributed systems

Build AI infrastructure platforms (on-prem + hybrid environments)

Solve complex challenges around:

orchestration

compute management

large-scale services

Work hands-on with technologies like Kubernetes and modern infra tooling

Lead from the front - own greenfield projects

8+ years in software engineering

Bachelor degree in Computer Science from a top 20 US university

Currently (and for 2+yrs each time) at top tech firms or quant finance companies

Strong background in distributed systems / infrastructure / platform engineering

Proven track record of owning and delivering complex systems at scale

Experience mentoring or leading engineers

You thrive in fast-moving, intellectually demanding environments
And most importantly: You have taste . You care about how systems are designed, built, and scaled.

What's On Offer

Base salary: $300k - $350k

Significant guaranteed first-year bonus + sign-on

Exceptional overall package (as you'd expect at this level)

Why This Role?

Because:

You'll work on problems that actually stretch you

You'll have real ownership , not just tickets

You'll be surrounded by seriously smart people

And you'll help shape the future of Generative AI infrastructure

Interested?

If this sounds like you - or even might be you - don't sit on it.
