TL;DR · Vice President, Compute Control Plane

The Global Vice President, Compute Control Plane will lead the engineering organization responsible for the core software systems powering the compute infrastructure portfolio. This leader will own the evolution, scale, reliability, and operational excellence of the common compute platform and the control plane for provisioning, placement, lifecycle management, capacity orchestration, and fleet operations. Key responsibilities include driving architectural consistency, improving engineering velocity, and leading an AI transformation to enhance software development, testing, and incident management. The role requires deep expertise in distributed systems, cloud infrastructure software, control-plane architecture, and large-scale service design. You will manage complex systems involving state management, concurrency, fault tolerance, and replication to support rapidly growing AI and accelerated compute workloads while ensuring high availability and infrastructure cost efficiency.

What you'll do

  • Own the engineering strategy, roadmap, and operational health of the common compute software platform.
  • Manage the architecture and operation of the compute control plane for provisioning, scheduling, and lifecycle management.
  • Drive the adoption of AI tools to improve software development, testing, and automated incident response.
  • Set high technical standards for distributed systems design, including fault tolerance, replication, and state management.
  • Ensure platform reliability by reducing customer-impacting incidents and advancing automated self-healing systems.
  • Optimize fleet orchestration to translate raw compute capacity into reliable, consumable cloud capacity.
  • Support rapidly growing AI and accelerated compute workloads by extending orchestration to GPU environments.
  • Monitor and report on key business metrics including availability, infrastructure cost, and engineering productivity.

What we're looking for

  • Must have 15+ years of experience in distributed systems, cloud infrastructure, systems software, or large-scale platform engineering.
  • Must have significant engineering leadership experience managing large, complex software organizations.
  • Must possess deep expertise in designing and operating distributed systems at scale.
  • Must have strong experience with control-plane architecture, service-oriented systems, APIs, state management, orchestration, and automation.
  • Must have proven experience operating highly available, mission-critical software services.
  • Must have demonstrated success improving the scalability, reliability, and operational efficiency of large infrastructure platforms.
  • Must have a strong operational mindset using service health and business metrics to drive engineering priorities.
  • Must have demonstrated ability to adopt emerging technologies, including AI, to improve software engineering and operational outcomes.
