Core Competencies * Structured, evidence-driven troubleshooting with sound judgment on when to remediate, collaborate, or escalate. * Strong ownership of tickets, attention to operational detail, and commitment to reliable customer service. * Ability to work effectively across NOC, SRE, hardware, network, storage, and Tier 3 engineering teams. * Clear written and verbal communication in English. ## Description We are seeking a mid-level AI Infrastructure Operations Engineer to provide Tier 2 operational support for large-scale GPU compute and storage platforms. This hands-on role focuses on owning technical tickets, restoring service, investigating recurring issues, and maintaining reliable day-to-day operation of production AI clusters. Working closely with the NOC, on-site data hall technicians, SRE teams, and senior infrastructure engineers, the engineer will troubleshoot Linux-based compute nodes, GPU systems, storage services, and their supporting software. Complex or systemic issues will be escalated to Tier 3 engineering with clear diagnostics and supporting evidence., Tier 2 Incident and Ticket Management * Own and manage escalated incidents, service requests, and problem tickets from initial technical triage through resolution, escalation, or documented handoff. * Diagnose compute and storage faults using system logs, monitoring dashboards, management interfaces, and approved diagnostic tools. * Assess severity and customer impact; coordinate with the NOC and site teams to restore service within operational and SLA targets. * Produce clear troubleshooting records, timely ticket updates, shift handovers, and actionable Tier 3 or OEM escalations. Compute and GPU Platform Operations * Troubleshoot Linux servers, GPU health alerts, boot failures, firmware/driver issues, hardware faults, and resource availability problems. * Support node provisioning, reimaging, configuration changes, routine maintenance, and return-to-service validation using established automation and runbooks. * Investigate Kubernetes and Slurm node or workload failures, working with platform engineers when application or scheduler-level escalation is required. * Perform first-level analysis of connectivity or GPU communication symptoms and engage network or Tier 3 engineers for deeper fabric and performance investigation. Storage Operations and Troubleshooting * Monitor and troubleshoot distributed and high-performance storage systems, including capacity, throughput, availability, and client connectivity. * Investigate filesystem mount failures, storage-node or disk alerts, degraded services, and access or performance complaints. * Execute approved recovery, maintenance, and component replacement workflows with storage vendors and data hall technicians. * Support operational tasks across file, object, and block storage platforms as deployed at Highrise sites. Operational Readiness and Continuous Improvement * Assist with upgrades, planned maintenance, cluster expansions, and validation activities following established change controls. * Maintain accurate asset, configuration, and ticket records; improve runbooks, troubleshooting checklists, and knowledge articles. * Identify recurring incidents and automate repeatable operational work with scripts and existing infrastructure management tools. * Collaborate with remote engineering teams, on-site technicians, OEMs, and vendors to resolve issues safely and efficiently., This is a full-time, engineering role supporting large-scale AI compute infrastructure across multiple sites. Travel to data centers for cluster commissioning, acceptance, and complex troubleshooting will be required. Flexibility to assist with critical incidents or maintenance activities outside regular business hours is expected. This role is hybrid or remote depending on location. Reasonable accommodations may be made to enable individuals with disabilities to perform the essential functions.
