As a Sr. AI Engineer on the Special Programs Supercomputing team, you will design and build deterministic, foolproof tooling for engineers operating in classified environments. Your daily responsibilities include building the deployment generator, bundle pipeline, and testing and validation framework. You will implement profile-driven rendering for public cloud, enterprise on-prem, and classified air-gap targets while maintaining the cross-profile CI matrix. You will also own the monitoring stack migration and integrate with existing operators and Helm charts. The role requires proficiency in Go Lang, Python, and Kubernetes for scaling containerized applications. Technical requirements include experience with Infrastructure-as-Code tools like Pulumi or Terraform, Linux systems, and GPU infrastructure including CUDA and InfiniBand. You will solve complex deployment problems for disconnected environments where all dependencies must be pre-staged.
