Headquarters: Remote

ZoomInfo is where careers accelerate. We move fast, think boldly, and empower you to do the best work of your life. You’ll be surrounded by teammates who care deeply, challenge each other, and celebrate wins. With tools that amplify your impact and a culture that backs your ambition, you won’t just contribute. You’ll make things happen–fast.

The Opportunity

We are looking for a Director of Engineering to lead our GTM Store and ZoomInfo Data Platform teams within the Platform Engineering organization. This is a high-impact, high-visibility leadership role responsible for the foundational systems that store, ingest, and evolve the data powering ZoomInfo's entire go-to-market product suite.

You will lead a team of senior engineers across two core areas:

•       GTM Store — ZoomInfo's core operational data store (BigTable), spanning scaling, performance, operational reliability, and the change data capture (CDC) systems that capture and propagate data change events downstream.
•       ZoomInfo Data Platform — ZoomInfo's analytical data store (BigQuery), including the ingestion pipelines and onboarding systems that bring new data in and keep it flowing accurately and efficiently, and the processes that ensure customer data deletion requests are handled promptly and compliantly.

This role sits at the foundation of ZoomInfo's data infrastructure — the reliability, scale, and integrity of these systems directly determine how fast we can onboard new data and how confidently we can serve it to customers. You will manage senior technical talent directly, setting technical direction, unblocking hard problems, and holding a high bar for engineering excellence.

What You'll Do

Strategic Leadership & Team Development

•       Lead and develop a team of senior engineers and tech leads across GTM Store and the ZoomInfo Data Platform.
•       Set the roadmap across both areas, balancing scaling and performance needs, new data onboarding velocity, compliance obligations, security and platform reliability.
•       Build a high-performance engineering culture grounded in ownership, technical rigor, and operational excellence for systems operating at large scale.
•       Manage senior technical individual contributors directly — setting expectations, providing technical guidance, and developing career growth paths for staff-level and senior engineers.
•       Serve as a trusted partner to the VP of Software Engineering, contributing to broader platform engineering strategy.
•       Establish clear prioritization frameworks to manage competing demands across scaling, new data onboarding, compliance, and reliability work.

GTM Store

•       Own the strategy, architecture, and roadmap for the GTM Store — ZoomInfo's core operational data store (BigTable) powering the go-to-market data product.
•       Drive scaling initiatives to keep pace with data growth and increasing query/read-write demands from downstream products.
•       Guide architecture decisions to improve performance, latency, and cost-efficiency at scale.
•       Establish and maintain operational best practices — monitoring, alerting, capacity planning, and incident response — to ensure high availability.
•       Own the strategy and architecture for change data capture (CDC), ensuring data change events are captured, propagated, and consumed reliably by downstream systems, including the ZoomInfo Data Platform.
•       Guide the selection and evolution of CDC tooling and patterns to support real-time and near-real-time data change propagation at scale.
•       Ensure CDC systems maintain data consistency, ordering guarantees, and fault tolerance under high event volume.
•       Partner with Product and downstream engineering teams to understand data access patterns and evolve the store's schema, APIs, and change event streams accordingly.

ZoomInfo Data Platform

•       Own the strategy, architecture, and roadmap for the ZoomInfo Data Platform — the analytical data store (BigQuery) that consumes and serves data for downstream analytics and product use cases.
•       Own the architecture and roadmap for data ingestion pipelines, including those consuming CDC streams from the GTM Store, that bring new data sources into the platform.
•       Drive initiatives to ease and accelerate the onboarding of new data sources, reducing the engineering lift required to integrate each new dataset.
•       Establish standardized, repeatable ingestion patterns and tooling that shorten time-to-value for new data.
•       Ensure ingestion pipelines are reliable, observable, and scalable to handle growing data volume and variety.
•       Own the systems and processes that handle customer data deletion requests, ensuring they are executed accurately, promptly, and in compliance with GDPR, CCPA, and related regulations.
•       Partner with Legal/Compliance and Product to evolve data deletion workflows as privacy regulations and customer requirements change.
•       Build observability and auditability into deletion workflows to provide clear evidence of compliance.

Cross-Functional Partnership & Enablement

•       Partner with cross-functional stakeholders to define requirements for scaling, new data onboarding, and compliance work that inform the platform roadmap.
•       Drive enablement programs — documentation and tooling — that help internal teams onboard new data sources faster and with less friction.
•       Represent the GTM Store and ZoomInfo Data Platform in strategic planning conversations and technology decisions with company-wide implications.

What You Bring

Required

•       8+ years of progressive experience in software/platform engineering or data engineering, with experience operating at a senior leadership level.
•       Experience directly managing senior technical talent — staff engineers, tech leads, or senior ICs — and holding a high technical bar.
•       Strong working knowledge of large-scale operational (e.g., BigTable) and analytical (e.g., BigQuery) data stores and distributed systems, including experience scaling data infrastructure to handle high volume and throughput.
•       Experience with data ingestion pipeline architecture and change data capture (CDC) technologies (e.g., Debezium, Kafka Connect, Kafka, or similar streaming/CDC tooling).
•       Experience with data privacy and compliance practices, including handling data deletion / right-to-be-forgotten requests under GDPR/CCPA.
•       Demonstrated ability to balance platform reliability and performance work against feature and onboarding velocity.
•       Proven cross-functional partnership skills with product and business stakeholders.
•       Excellent communication skills — able to present strategy, trade-offs, and progress to executive leadership.

Preferred

•       Familiarity with Google Cloud Platform (GCP) data infrastructure, including BigTable and BigQuery.
•       Familiarity with event streaming platforms (Kafka) and workflow/pipeline orchestration tools (Airflow, or similar).
•       Experience building self-service tooling that accelerates data onboarding for internal teams.

What Sets You Apart

•       You lead through people. Your strongest technical asset is your ability to hire, develop, and empower exceptional engineers — and then get out of their way.
•       You connect technology to business outcomes. You see infrastructure investments not as technical projects but as enablers of speed, trust, and better decisions across the company.
•       You are a systems thinker. You see the connections between platform architecture, team structure, process design, and stakeholder experience — and you optimize across all four.
•       You are decisive under ambiguity. Competing priorities, legacy systems, organizational change, and imperfect information don't paralyze you — they sharpen your focus.
•       You balance vision with pragmatism. You can articulate a bold multi-year direction and then break it into quarterly deliverables your team can execute with confidence.
•       You build bridges. Engineering, analytics, security, and business teams all see you as someone who understands their world and advocates for shared outcomes.

How We Work

•       Be Relentless. We outpace and outcompete. We are smart, clever, and resourceful in everything we do.
•       Be Entrepreneurs. We hustle, move fast, take ownership, and make decisions. We are accountable and resilient.
•       Be Experts. We understand our customers deeply and demand domain expertise from everyone.
•       Be Innovators. We innovate not just in product, but in how we operate — driving outcomes no one thought were possible.
•       Be a Team. We are one team, working together to win. We collaborate and lean in to help each other.

About LawnStarter

LawnStarter is the nation's leading on-demand marketplace for lawn care and related services, with over $150M in annual bookings. We're expanding beyond lawn care to become the one-stop shop for all home services.

About Engineering Quality at LawnStarter

Our QA team is growing, and we're investing real money in better test coverage. We already have shared quality standards and a QA squad that organizes itself horizontally across teams. What we don't have is someone dedicated to owning that vision: every QA is heads-down on their own team, so nobody has the room to drive the standards forward, unify how the squad works, or push the state of the art. That's the gap this role fills. It's not a nice-to-have we're adding because things are going well. It's the structure and leadership we need to make what we've already built actually compound.

The Role

You'll be LawnStarter's first Principal Quality Engineer, reporting directly to the Head of Engineering. We already have quality standards, working CI/CD gates, and AI tooling in the mix. Nobody owns the vision behind all of it, drives it forward, or leads the QA squad that keeps it running. You will.

This isn't a QA management job today. You won't spend your day approving tickets or chasing bug counts. You'll take ownership of the standards and tooling that already exist, work collaboratively with the QA squad to improve them, and keep pushing the state of quality engineering forward as the org grows. As the QA squad grows, this role could take on direct people management of QAs, so hiring, coaching, and performance management experience is a real plus even though it's not the day-one job.

You're not starting from zero, and you're not inheriting a mess either. That means the job isn't "invent a strategy nobody has thought about." It's "listen to the QAs who live in this every day, understand where the pain is, and lead them toward what's next." We need someone who reads where LawnStarter is today and builds from there, not someone who shows up with a favorite tool stack and a coverage number they picked before they met the team.

What makes this role different:

• You own and evolve the quality strategy together with the QA team, instead of building one in a vacuum or just executing someone else's.
• You have direct sponsorship from the Head of Engineering and the room to keep growing the AI-native tooling already in the mix.
• Your success is measured by how much better the whole engineering org's quality gets under your leadership, not by a headcount number.

What You'll Own

• Strategy and vision: The company-wide quality engineering roadmap, plus a quality accountability framework that spells out what engineers, EMs, and PMs each own at every stage of building software.
• Test strategy across the stack: Unit, component, contract, API, end-to-end, mobile, and non-functional testing (performance, load, accessibility), agreed with each team as their quality contract.
• AI-native quality tooling: AI agents and skills, including Claude Code style tooling, that any engineer can run on demand for test generation, code review, and quality guidance. You'll keep hunting for the next AI capability worth putting in front of the team.
• CI/CD and test infrastructure: Required checks, quality gates, E2E and visual regression pipelines, performance budgets, and the mobile test automation strategy across emulators and real device clouds. That includes deciding what actually needs to block a deploy versus what can run async, and keeping the pipeline itself fast.
• Production quality signal: Tying monitoring into incident response and building dashboards teams actually check, not ones that just exist.
• Technical mentorship of the QA discipline: QA engineers keep reporting to their own Engineering Managers today. You won't manage their day-to-day or their careers right now. You'll own the technical and craft side of QA org-wide, mentor QA engineers across every squad, and send your input to their EMs to feed performance reviews. That could change as the squad grows into a direct reporting line to this role.

Problems to Solve

A solid quality bar with no one steering it.

We already have shared standards, working quality gates, and AI tooling in the mix. What's missing is someone whose job is to look at all of it, decide what needs to improve next, and actually drive that improvement instead of it being everyone's part-time responsibility.

A QA squad with no dedicated leadership.

Our QAs already organize horizontally across teams, but every one of them is focused on their own team's work day to day. Nobody has the bandwidth to unify how they work, spread what's working on one team to the others, or represent their pain points where decisions get made. You'll give that squad the structure and leadership it's missing.

Standards that need continuous R&D, not a rewrite.

The foundation works. The risk is standing still while the org grows. You'll keep pushing the state of the art, testing new approaches and tools, and deciding what's worth rolling out broadly versus what stays an experiment.

Quality work that's still someone's side project.

Right now, improving quality practice competes with each QA's day-to-day team commitments. You'll make it someone's actual job to carry that forward, and get engineers, EMs, and PMs treating it as planned work instead of something squeezed in.

What Success Looks Like (Year 1)

• A clear quality vision, owned and communicated: Every product team can point to what "good" means for their testing and why, with you as the person who set that direction and keeps it current.
• Measurable improvement on existing gates: Flakiness, pipeline cost, and what runs sync versus async on core repositories are visibly better than when you started, not just maintained.
• At least one new AI-native capability shipped: You've pushed the existing AI tooling forward with something new, like an added test-generation flow or audit, that engineers actually reach for weekly.
• A QA squad that feels led: The QAs across teams can point to concrete ways their work, tools, or standards improved because someone was finally driving it.

Requirements

Who You Are

AI-native, specifically for quality work. You already use AI to generate tests, not just to autocomplete code. You've set up agentic tooling like Claude Code or MCP-based workflows so engineers can run on-demand test generation or code review against their own repos, and you keep experimenting with what AI can take off a team's plate next. This is unlikely to be a good fit if AI tools mostly make you nervous, or your use of them stops at your own personal productivity.

A strategic thinker, not a tool zealot. Give you a team's current maturity level, and you'll design the testing approach that fits where they are, not the one you used at your last job. You resist the urge to mandate a specific framework or a specific coverage number before you understand the context. Someone who shows up insisting "we need to hit 90% coverage" or "everyone must use Playwright" without first learning how the team works will struggle here.

Deeply hands-on across the whole test pyramid. You've built and maintained component, contract, API, E2E, and performance test suites yourself, not just reviewed slides about them. You're the person who steps in when the engineering team is blocked by the pipeline and can't ship. If your test automation experience stops at reading dashboards other people built, this role will feel out of reach fast.

A patient teacher who still ships. Coaching engineers on testing practice and running enablement sessions is part of the job. So is personally building the CI pipelines and the tooling. You don't write the doc and hope someone else implements it. This is unlikely to be a good fit for someone who only wants to advise, or who avoids hands-on infrastructure work.

Comfortable owning influence without owning headcount, at least for now. You'll mentor QA engineers across every squad on technical craft and send notes to their EMs for performance reviews. You won't be their manager on day one, and you won't set their career path. This works well if you're motivated by discipline-wide technical influence. It won't if you need direct reports from the start to feel engaged. If you've hired, coached, and managed performance for a QA or engineering team before, that's a genuine plus: this role could grow into managing the QA squad directly as it scales.

This Role Is NOT

• A traditional QA management job, at least not on day one: You won't manage QA engineers day to day or own their career growth right now. Their EMs do that. You own the technical and strategic direction of the QA discipline instead, with the door open to direct management as the squad grows.
• A "throw out what's there and start over" job: We have real standards and tooling worth building on. You can't parachute in with a pre-packaged process or a favorite tool stack and mandate it regardless of fit.
• A ticket-approval or gatekeeping role: You're not the last line of defense that blocks releases at the end. You're embedding quality earlier, so there's less to block.
• A headcount-growth play: Your success isn't measured by how big a QA team you build. It's measured by how much better the whole engineering org's quality gets.

Benefits

Compensation & Benefits

• Base salary: $80,000-$100,000 USD annually.
• Fully remote: This is deep-focus analytical work with US-facing partners. We hire the best analyst regardless of city and trust you to manage your environment and overlap hours.
• Flexible PTO: Measured on outcomes, not hours logged.

LawnStarter provides equal employment opportunities (EEO) to all employees and applicants for employment without regard to race, color, religion, sex, national origin, age, disability, or genetics. We comply with applicable state and local laws governing nondiscrimination in employment.

About the job

Cosmic AC is Tether Data’s GPU compute and managed inference platform: GPU containers, managed inference endpoints and platform observability, delivered as a self-hosted package on Kubernetes, with a control plane written in JavaScript. The platform is expanding from orchestrating workloads on a managed cluster to owning the full stack on bare-metal GPU infrastructure: a managed Slurm scheduling layer for internal research and model-training teams first, and our own Kubernetes control plane for inference tenancy after that.

The Technical Lead owns the architecture and delivery of that stack and leads the engineering team building it: about twelve engineers across backend, frontend, DevOps, QA and documentation, distributed across Europe and India. The role reports to the Senior Technical Product Manager for Cosmic AC, who owns scope, sequencing and partner commitments; the Technical Lead owns architecture, implementation and delivery plans, line-manages the engineers, and is the primary technical interface to our infrastructure partners.

This is a hands-on infrastructure leadership role with a fixed delivery window in its first six months. It is not a research role, not a pure Kubernetes SRE role, and not a management-only role.

Responsibilities

Architecture. Own the platform architecture end to end: architecture proposals, high-level and low-level designs, driven through review and kept current as the baseline.

Team leadership. Lead and line-manage a distributed team across backend (Node.js), frontend (React), DevOps, QA and documentation: engineering standards, code and design review, release gates, one-to-ones, growth and performance input.

Bare-metal GPU scheduling layer. Design, build and operate a managed Slurm service for research users: controller and accounting, partitions and login nodes, node onboarding and acceptance, driver and CUDA baseline and upgrades, stalled-job and node-health detection, drain and autohealing, storage visibility, identity and isolation.

Kubernetes control plane and GPU enablement. Own cluster bootstrap and lifecycle on partner-provided bare metal, NVIDIA GPU Operator and Network Operator, VM-based GPU isolation (KubeVirt and VFIO), and day-2 operations: upgrades, backup and recovery, node replacement.

Managed inference at scale. Serving architecture, multi-GPU and multi-node parallelism, autoscaling, request routing and endpoint reliability; confidential-compute-capable capacity for sensitive workloads.

Observability and operations. Metrics, logging, alerting and SLOs across control plane, GPU fleet and application tiers; incident response and post-incident review; an on-call model a small team can sustain.

Partners and vendors. Primary technical interface to infrastructure partners and vendors: turning requirements into written specifications and acceptance tests, running escalations to closure, and providing technical input to capacity planning and hardware sourcing.

Internal consumers. Work directly with research, model-training and product teams to translate their workloads into platform requirements, and broker capacity when it is short.

Hiring. Complete the platform team and set the technical bar for the engineers who join it.

Requirements

Must have

• Experience. Eight or more years of hands-on engineering, including at least three leading teams that build and operate infrastructure platforms other teams depend on. Bachelor’s or Master’s degree in computer science or engineering, or equivalent practical experience.

• Slurm at scale, hands on. Has run slurmctld and slurmdbd for real users: partitions, QoS and priority, accounting, prolog and epilog, node health scripting, upgrades with jobs on the system. Ideally has operated an HPC or GPU training cluster for a research population.

• GPU fleet operation on bare metal. NVIDIA driver and CUDA lifecycle, Fabric Manager and NVSwitch behaviour on SXM systems, DCGM-based health and utilisation, MIG, node burn-in and acceptance.

• High-performance interconnects. InfiniBand fabric and subnet configuration, RDMA, SR-IOV, and diagnosing multi-node NCCL performance problems.

• Linux systems depth. Kernel modules and drivers, PCIe passthrough and vfio-pci, cgroups and namespaces, performance tuning for compute-heavy workloads.

• Production Kubernetes operation, not just deployment: control plane, upgrades, CNI and CSI, operators and custom controllers, multi-tenancy design.

• HPC storage and data movement. Shared filesystems (VAST, Lustre, NFS), node-local NVMe caching, distributing large model weights and datasets across many nodes.

• Observability and operations. Prometheus, Grafana and Loki or equivalents, SLOs, incident response and post-incident review.

• Working fluency in JavaScript and Node.js sufficient to review a control plane, CLI and worker services with authority and to make architecture decisions on them. Not a feature-development requirement.

• A shipped platform with real users. A multi-tenant IaaS or PaaS, or a research computing service: resource isolation, quotas, usage metering, and user-facing API and CLI surfaces.

• Leadership that stays in the code. People management across time zones, cross-track review, written architecture decisions with alternatives recorded, and the ability to tell a partner or an executive no with reasons.

• Excellent written and spoken English. Most partner and leadership work happens in writing.

• Location. Fully remote, based between UTC and UTC+5:30 so the working day overlaps both Europe and India, where the team and its partners work. Occasional travel to partner sites and team events.

Desirable

• Slurm operators on Kubernetes (Soperator, Slinky) or Kubernetes-native schedulers (Kueue, Volcano, KAI, Kubeflow Trainer).

• Modern serving stacks (vLLM, SGLang, TensorRT-LLM): parallelism strategies, quantisation trade-offs, GPU memory planning.

• VM and container isolation for multi-tenant GPU compute (KubeVirt, Kata Containers, QEMU and KVM, Firecracker); confidential computing (Intel TDX, AMD SEV-SNP, NVIDIA confidential-compute mode).

• Cluster API and kubeadm, Cilium, NVSentinel-class autohealing, infrastructure as code and GitOps.

• Time on the operator side of a GPU cloud, a national or university HPC centre, or an AI lab’s platform team.

• Peer-to-peer or distributed-systems background.

• Experience with a hardware provider who provisions but does not operate, and turning that relationship into a written contract with acceptance tests.

Important information for candidates

Recruitment scams have become increasingly common. To protect yourself, please keep the following in mind when applying for roles:

Fingerprint empowers enterprises to detect and stop online fraud with the world’s most accurate device intelligence.  We lead our industry with bleeding-edge identification capabilities and work on turning new ideas and discoveries in the fraud detection space into reality. Our customers range from innovative startups to leading enterprise companies, including Plaid, Dropbox, and Booking.com.

Fingerprint is a globally dispersed, 100% remote company. We were named on on the 2026 Forbes Best Startup Employers list and ranked #803 on the 2026 Inc. 5000 list of America’s fastest-growing private companies.

We have raised $77M and are backed by Craft Ventures (Tesla, Facebook, Airbnb ), Nexus Venture Partners ( Postman, Apollo.io, MinIO, Druva) and Uncorrelated Ventures ( Redis, Rollbar,  Gradle).

About the role

You will be Fingerprint’s first dedicated Architect. You will lead cross-cutting architecture — how our systems fit together and where they need to go — working alongside the Staff and Lead engineers who already shape them, without direct reports. The mandate has three parts. First, go deep: build the end-to-end picture nobody currently has time to hold, identify where the platform will strain as we scale, and set the direction to address it. Second, raise the bar: strengthen and extend our design review, API, service, and reliability practices so eight engineering groups can move fast without stepping on each other. Third, make it durable: give cross-cutting architecture work consistent cadence, a durable decision record, and follow-through, so strong individual judgment compounds into platform-level outcomes.

You report directly to the VP of Engineering. That placement is deliberate — you need neutrality across groups so the standards you set with teams are adopted everywhere.

What you’ll do

Own the end-to-end architecture

• Build and maintain the end-to-end architecture picture — data flows, service boundaries, ownership seams — and keep it current as the org changes.
• Identify systemic scaling, reliability, and cost risks across the pipeline (ingestion, identification, signals, delivery) and drive architectural changes to address them before they become incidents.
• Set direction for API design and service patterns across REST, SDK, and MCP surfaces so customers see one coherent platform.
• Shape the roadmap for foundational initiatives (e.g., cell architecture, multi-region readiness, rate limiting, feature flag infrastructure) and lead the hardest designs yourself.

Lead cross-cutting architecture

• Serve as full-time technical lead across the engineering org: set the agenda, drive decisions to closure, own the decision record, and follow through on adoption across teams.
• Partner with Engineering leadership and the Staff/Lead engineers across teams to prioritize cross-cutting work and connect it to team roadmaps.
• Mentor Staff-level engineers on system design, technical writing, and influence — raise the bar for what “Staff” means at Fingerprint.

Strengthen and extend best practices

• Build on the design review practices we already have (RFCs, cross-team design reviews) and make them more consistent, lighter-weight, and more useful, so teams choose to use them.
• Codify and extend standards for observability, quality, security-by-design, and API evolution/versioning, working with Cloud Platform, Security, and product teams.
• Review and sign off on critical designs; teach through review rather than gatekeeping.

Set us up for scale

• Translate business trajectory (Tier 1 enterprise customers, new product launches, AI/MCP workflows) into a multi-quarter technical strategy and sequence the work.
• Advise Engineering leadership and executive team on build/buy, platform investment, and technical risk in plain language.
• Lead AI adoption in engineering practice: set norms for AI-assisted design, coding, and review across teams, and shape our architecture and documentation so AI agents can work in our systems as effectively as engineers do.
• Stay hands-on: prototype, write reference implementations and documentation, and dig into production when the problem demands it.

What we’re looking for

• 10+ years of software engineering experience, including 3+ years operating as an Architect for a 100+ Engineering org — you have owned architecture for a platform, not just a service.
• Track record of leading through influence: you have led senior engineers you didn’t manage, run design review or architecture forums that people actually used, and driven adoption of standards across an org.
• Deep expertise in distributed systems and high-throughput, low-latency backend architecture (Go or similar systems language; Kubernetes/AWS; event-driven and data-intensive systems). Fluency across adjacent layers — client SDKs, data pipelines, ML serving — is a strong plus.
• Experience designing public APIs and SDKs at scale, including versioning, backward compatibility, and multi-surface consistency.
• Demonstrated ability to anticipate systemic risk and act on it — you can point to failures you prevented, not just ones you fixed.
• Exceptional written communication. You make complex decisions legible to engineers and executives alike, and you default to async, documented decision-making.
• AI-native by default. You use AI coding and reasoning tools as a normal part of how you design, prototype, review, and write — and you have opinions, from experience, about where they accelerate engineering work and where they don’t yet.
• Architect for an AI-assisted org. You think about how codebases, documentation, service boundaries, and APIs should be shaped so that both humans and AI agents can work in them safely — legible structure, strong contracts, automated verification.
• Pragmatism over purity. You balance long-term architecture with delivery pressure and know when “good enough” is the right call.
• Comfortable being the first: you have stepped into a dedicated role where the work was previously shared across a group, earned the trust of the people already doing it, and made them more effective rather than displacing them.

Nice to have

• Experience in fraud detection, identity, device intelligence, or other adversarial domains.
• Multi-region / cell-based architecture experience.
• Experience with MCP, LLM tool integrations, or agent-facing API design.
• Familiarity with ClickHouse, Kafka, or similar high-volume data infrastructure.

Compensation & Transparency

For US-based employees, the cash compensation range for this role is $177,000 – $240,000. We set standard ranges for all US roles based on function, level, and geographic location, benchmarked against similar stage growth companies.

About the job

Cosmic AC is Tether Data’s GPU compute and managed inference platform: GPU containers, managed inference endpoints and platform observability, delivered as a self-hosted package on Kubernetes, with a control plane written in JavaScript. The platform is expanding from orchestrating workloads on a managed cluster to owning the full stack on bare-metal GPU infrastructure: a managed Slurm scheduling layer for internal research and model-training teams first, and our own Kubernetes control plane for inference tenancy after that.

The Technical Lead owns the architecture and delivery of that stack and leads the engineering team building it: about twelve engineers across backend, frontend, DevOps, QA and documentation, distributed across Europe and India. The role reports to the Senior Technical Product Manager for Cosmic AC, who owns scope, sequencing and partner commitments; the Technical Lead owns architecture, implementation and delivery plans, line-manages the engineers, and is the primary technical interface to our infrastructure partners.

This is a hands-on infrastructure leadership role with a fixed delivery window in its first six months. It is not a research role, not a pure Kubernetes SRE role, and not a management-only role.

Responsibilities

Architecture. Own the platform architecture end to end: architecture proposals, high-level and low-level designs, driven through review and kept current as the baseline.

Team leadership. Lead and line-manage a distributed team across backend (Node.js), frontend (React), DevOps, QA and documentation: engineering standards, code and design review, release gates, one-to-ones, growth and performance input.

Bare-metal GPU scheduling layer. Design, build and operate a managed Slurm service for research users: controller and accounting, partitions and login nodes, node onboarding and acceptance, driver and CUDA baseline and upgrades, stalled-job and node-health detection, drain and autohealing, storage visibility, identity and isolation.

Kubernetes control plane and GPU enablement. Own cluster bootstrap and lifecycle on partner-provided bare metal, NVIDIA GPU Operator and Network Operator, VM-based GPU isolation (KubeVirt and VFIO), and day-2 operations: upgrades, backup and recovery, node replacement.

Managed inference at scale. Serving architecture, multi-GPU and multi-node parallelism, autoscaling, request routing and endpoint reliability; confidential-compute-capable capacity for sensitive workloads.

Observability and operations. Metrics, logging, alerting and SLOs across control plane, GPU fleet and application tiers; incident response and post-incident review; an on-call model a small team can sustain.

Partners and vendors. Primary technical interface to infrastructure partners and vendors: turning requirements into written specifications and acceptance tests, running escalations to closure, and providing technical input to capacity planning and hardware sourcing.

Internal consumers. Work directly with research, model-training and product teams to translate their workloads into platform requirements, and broker capacity when it is short.

Hiring. Complete the platform team and set the technical bar for the engineers who join it.

Requirements

Must have

• Experience. Eight or more years of hands-on engineering, including at least three leading teams that build and operate infrastructure platforms other teams depend on. Bachelor’s or Master’s degree in computer science or engineering, or equivalent practical experience.

• Slurm at scale, hands on. Has run slurmctld and slurmdbd for real users: partitions, QoS and priority, accounting, prolog and epilog, node health scripting, upgrades with jobs on the system. Ideally has operated an HPC or GPU training cluster for a research population.

• GPU fleet operation on bare metal. NVIDIA driver and CUDA lifecycle, Fabric Manager and NVSwitch behaviour on SXM systems, DCGM-based health and utilisation, MIG, node burn-in and acceptance.

• High-performance interconnects. InfiniBand fabric and subnet configuration, RDMA, SR-IOV, and diagnosing multi-node NCCL performance problems.

• Linux systems depth. Kernel modules and drivers, PCIe passthrough and vfio-pci, cgroups and namespaces, performance tuning for compute-heavy workloads.

• Production Kubernetes operation, not just deployment: control plane, upgrades, CNI and CSI, operators and custom controllers, multi-tenancy design.

• HPC storage and data movement. Shared filesystems (VAST, Lustre, NFS), node-local NVMe caching, distributing large model weights and datasets across many nodes.

• Observability and operations. Prometheus, Grafana and Loki or equivalents, SLOs, incident response and post-incident review.

• Working fluency in JavaScript and Node.js sufficient to review a control plane, CLI and worker services with authority and to make architecture decisions on them. Not a feature-development requirement.

• A shipped platform with real users. A multi-tenant IaaS or PaaS, or a research computing service: resource isolation, quotas, usage metering, and user-facing API and CLI surfaces.

• Leadership that stays in the code. People management across time zones, cross-track review, written architecture decisions with alternatives recorded, and the ability to tell a partner or an executive no with reasons.

• Excellent written and spoken English. Most partner and leadership work happens in writing.

• Location. Fully remote, based between UTC and UTC+5:30 so the working day overlaps both Europe and India, where the team and its partners work. Occasional travel to partner sites and team events.

Desirable

• Slurm operators on Kubernetes (Soperator, Slinky) or Kubernetes-native schedulers (Kueue, Volcano, KAI, Kubeflow Trainer).

• Modern serving stacks (vLLM, SGLang, TensorRT-LLM): parallelism strategies, quantisation trade-offs, GPU memory planning.

• VM and container isolation for multi-tenant GPU compute (KubeVirt, Kata Containers, QEMU and KVM, Firecracker); confidential computing (Intel TDX, AMD SEV-SNP, NVIDIA confidential-compute mode).

• Cluster API and kubeadm, Cilium, NVSentinel-class autohealing, infrastructure as code and GitOps.

• Time on the operator side of a GPU cloud, a national or university HPC centre, or an AI lab’s platform team.

• Peer-to-peer or distributed-systems background.

• Experience with a hardware provider who provisions but does not operate, and turning that relationship into a written contract with acceptance tests.

About the job

Cosmic AC is Tether Data’s GPU compute and managed inference platform: GPU containers, managed inference endpoints and platform observability, delivered as a self-hosted package on Kubernetes, with a control plane written in JavaScript. The platform is expanding from orchestrating workloads on a managed cluster to owning the full stack on bare-metal GPU infrastructure: a managed Slurm scheduling layer for internal research and model-training teams first, and our own Kubernetes control plane for inference tenancy after that.

The Technical Lead owns the architecture and delivery of that stack and leads the engineering team building it: about twelve engineers across backend, frontend, DevOps, QA and documentation, distributed across Europe and India. The role reports to the Senior Technical Product Manager for Cosmic AC, who owns scope, sequencing and partner commitments; the Technical Lead owns architecture, implementation and delivery plans, line-manages the engineers, and is the primary technical interface to our infrastructure partners.

This is a hands-on infrastructure leadership role with a fixed delivery window in its first six months. It is not a research role, not a pure Kubernetes SRE role, and not a management-only role.

Responsibilities

Architecture. Own the platform architecture end to end: architecture proposals, high-level and low-level designs, driven through review and kept current as the baseline.

Team leadership. Lead and line-manage a distributed team across backend (Node.js), frontend (React), DevOps, QA and documentation: engineering standards, code and design review, release gates, one-to-ones, growth and performance input.

Bare-metal GPU scheduling layer. Design, build and operate a managed Slurm service for research users: controller and accounting, partitions and login nodes, node onboarding and acceptance, driver and CUDA baseline and upgrades, stalled-job and node-health detection, drain and autohealing, storage visibility, identity and isolation.

Kubernetes control plane and GPU enablement. Own cluster bootstrap and lifecycle on partner-provided bare metal, NVIDIA GPU Operator and Network Operator, VM-based GPU isolation (KubeVirt and VFIO), and day-2 operations: upgrades, backup and recovery, node replacement.

Managed inference at scale. Serving architecture, multi-GPU and multi-node parallelism, autoscaling, request routing and endpoint reliability; confidential-compute-capable capacity for sensitive workloads.

Observability and operations. Metrics, logging, alerting and SLOs across control plane, GPU fleet and application tiers; incident response and post-incident review; an on-call model a small team can sustain.

Partners and vendors. Primary technical interface to infrastructure partners and vendors: turning requirements into written specifications and acceptance tests, running escalations to closure, and providing technical input to capacity planning and hardware sourcing.

Internal consumers. Work directly with research, model-training and product teams to translate their workloads into platform requirements, and broker capacity when it is short.

Hiring. Complete the platform team and set the technical bar for the engineers who join it.

Requirements

Must have

• Experience. Eight or more years of hands-on engineering, including at least three leading teams that build and operate infrastructure platforms other teams depend on. Bachelor’s or Master’s degree in computer science or engineering, or equivalent practical experience.

• Slurm at scale, hands on. Has run slurmctld and slurmdbd for real users: partitions, QoS and priority, accounting, prolog and epilog, node health scripting, upgrades with jobs on the system. Ideally has operated an HPC or GPU training cluster for a research population.

• GPU fleet operation on bare metal. NVIDIA driver and CUDA lifecycle, Fabric Manager and NVSwitch behaviour on SXM systems, DCGM-based health and utilisation, MIG, node burn-in and acceptance.

• High-performance interconnects. InfiniBand fabric and subnet configuration, RDMA, SR-IOV, and diagnosing multi-node NCCL performance problems.

• Linux systems depth. Kernel modules and drivers, PCIe passthrough and vfio-pci, cgroups and namespaces, performance tuning for compute-heavy workloads.

• Production Kubernetes operation, not just deployment: control plane, upgrades, CNI and CSI, operators and custom controllers, multi-tenancy design.

• HPC storage and data movement. Shared filesystems (VAST, Lustre, NFS), node-local NVMe caching, distributing large model weights and datasets across many nodes.

• Observability and operations. Prometheus, Grafana and Loki or equivalents, SLOs, incident response and post-incident review.

• Working fluency in JavaScript and Node.js sufficient to review a control plane, CLI and worker services with authority and to make architecture decisions on them. Not a feature-development requirement.

• A shipped platform with real users. A multi-tenant IaaS or PaaS, or a research computing service: resource isolation, quotas, usage metering, and user-facing API and CLI surfaces.

• Leadership that stays in the code. People management across time zones, cross-track review, written architecture decisions with alternatives recorded, and the ability to tell a partner or an executive no with reasons.

• Excellent written and spoken English. Most partner and leadership work happens in writing.

• Location. Fully remote, based between UTC and UTC+5:30 so the working day overlaps both Europe and India, where the team and its partners work. Occasional travel to partner sites and team events.

Desirable

• Slurm operators on Kubernetes (Soperator, Slinky) or Kubernetes-native schedulers (Kueue, Volcano, KAI, Kubeflow Trainer).

• Modern serving stacks (vLLM, SGLang, TensorRT-LLM): parallelism strategies, quantisation trade-offs, GPU memory planning.

• VM and container isolation for multi-tenant GPU compute (KubeVirt, Kata Containers, QEMU and KVM, Firecracker); confidential computing (Intel TDX, AMD SEV-SNP, NVIDIA confidential-compute mode).

• Cluster API and kubeadm, Cilium, NVSentinel-class autohealing, infrastructure as code and GitOps.

• Time on the operator side of a GPU cloud, a national or university HPC centre, or an AI lab’s platform team.

• Peer-to-peer or distributed-systems background.

• Experience with a hardware provider who provisions but does not operate, and turning that relationship into a written contract with acceptance tests.
