Role
Who you are
- Strong experience managing SRE, Infrastructure or Platform Engineering teams in production environments
- Strong knowledge of Linux/UNIX systems and infrastructure fundamentals
- Good networking knowledge, including VLAN, VRF, VIP and NAT
- Experience with bare-metal infrastructure and remote server provisioning using technologies such as PXE, BMC or IPMI
- Strong understanding of infrastructure automation, observability and incident management
- Experience with Kubernetes and monitoring stacks such as Prometheus and Grafana
- Experience with GPU, HPC or high-performance infrastructure is a strong plus
- Strong engineering leadership and team management capabilities
- Technical rigor and high attention to detail in production-critical environments
- Ability to handle high-pressure operational situations and manage incident stress pragmatically
- Excellent communication skills with the ability to convey challenging messages effectively
- Collaborative mindset with a focus on empowering engineers rather than micromanaging
What the job involves
- As our GPU Cloud infrastructure continues to scale, we are strengthening our SRE organization to support the deployment and operation of increasingly large and complex AI and HPC infrastructure
- Your mission will be to lead our Site Reliability Engineering team and ensure the reliability, scalability, and operational excellence of our GPU clusters
- This is not a traditional IT Operations management role
- You will combine engineering leadership with strong technical ownership, working close to the infrastructure itself from Linux systems, networking and bare-metal server provisioning to hardware lifecycle, automation and cluster observability
- You will help the team automate critical infrastructure workflows, improve reliability and operate production-grade GPU platforms powering our sovereign cloud
- We work in a collaborative and international environment where the diversity of Scalers, combined with a strong culture of knowledge sharing, helps us bring ambitious projects to life
- You will lead a team of 6 Site Reliability Engineers within the GPU Cloud organization
- The team works on some of our most critical AI and HPC infrastructure challenges, including bare-metal provisioning, GPU cluster automation, server lifecycle management, hardware failure management, observability, reliability and the integration of new GPU technologies
- The scope goes beyond traditional cloud-native infrastructure: the team operates close to the physical servers and needs to automate the full lifecycle of large fleets of GPU machines, from remote provisioning to production operations and remediation
- You will collaborate closely with GPU Cloud Engineering, Hardware, Product and Operations teams, as well as other infrastructure teams across Scaleway
- Lead and manage a team of 6 Site Reliability Engineers, supporting both their technical execution and career development
- Provide technical leadership and challenge architecture decisions related to large-scale GPU infrastructure
- Design and drive automation for bare-metal server provisioning and lifecycle management
- Improve remote deployment and server management capabilities using technologies and concepts such as PXE, BMC and IPMI
- Drive automation around hardware failures, remediation and server recovery
- Build and improve observability, monitoring, logging and alerting capabilities across production GPU clusters
- Own the SRE team's technical roadmap, priorities and delivery
- Ensure the reliability, scalability, performance and resilience of production GPU infrastructure
- Drive continuous improvements in automation, incident response and post-incident remediation
- Support technical decisions involving Linux systems, networking, hardware and cluster architecture
- Collaborate closely with Engineering, Hardware, Product, Operations and other GPU Cloud teams
- Recruit, onboard, coach and develop engineers within the team
- Lead incident response and post-incident improvements when critical production issues occur
Application process
- Discovery call with HR
- Technical interview with the HPC team to understand your technical skills and approach to the role
- Manager interview to validate your expertise
- Interview with an Engineering Manager / Head of Engineering to deepen discussions and assess your fit with the team
- HR interview and office visit to tour our offices and meet your future colleagues
