Role Description

We are seeking a Principal Architect to lead the technical vision, architecture, and evolution of our Kubernetes-based infrastructure platforms supporting large-scale, GPU-enabled workloads. This role is responsible for defining end-to-end platform strategy across on-premises and cloud environments, driving architectural standards, and partnering closely with engineering, SRE, and operations teams to deliver highly reliable, scalable infrastructure-as-a-service to internal customers.

As a Principal Architect, you will operate at both the systems and organizational level—setting long-term technical direction, influencing platform adoption, and ensuring architectural decisions align with business priorities, reliability goals, and future growth.

  • Own the end-to-end architectural vision for Kubernetes platforms spanning on-prem and cloud environments, with a strong emphasis on scalability, resiliency, and operational excellence.
  • Define and evolve reference architectures for:
    • Multi-cluster and multi-tenant Kubernetes environments
    • GPU-enabled workloads and high-performance computing (HPC) use cases
    • Hybrid infrastructure (on-prem + AWS)
  • Establish architectural standards, design principles, and best practices for platform services, networking, security, and observability.

Qualifications

  • 10+ years of experience in platform engineering, infrastructure architecture, SRE, or distributed systems roles.
  • Deep expertise in Kubernetes architecture, including on-prem deployments and production-scale environments.
  • Strong understanding of Linux systems internals, performance tuning, and troubleshooting.
  • Advanced knowledge of networking fundamentals (L3/L4, DNS, load balancing, VPC networking).
  • Proficiency in one or more programming languages such as Go, Python, or Bash, with experience designing automation frameworks or platform services.
  • Proven experience in architecting large-scale distributed systems with high reliability requirements.
  • Demonstrated ability to influence technical direction across multiple teams without direct authority.
  • Bachelor’s degree in Computer Science or a related technical field (or equivalent experience).

Requirements

  • Experience with GPU workload management and scheduling (Slurm, Run: AI).
  • Architecture experience supporting multi-cluster, multi-tenant Kubernetes at scale.
  • Familiarity with distributed storage systems such as Lustre or VAST Data, particularly in HPC or ML environments.
  • Experience designing platforms for observability at scale.
  • Contributions to open-source projects related to Kubernetes, cloud-native ecosystems, or HPC tooling.
  • Prior experience in environments where the majority of infrastructure is on-prem, with hybrid cloud integration.

Benefits

  • Medical, Dental, and Vision
  • Critical Illness, Accident, and Hospital
  • 401(k) Retirement Plan – Pre-tax and Roth post-tax contributions available
  • Life Insurance (Voluntary Life and AD&D for employee and dependents)
  • Short and Long-Term Disability
  • Health Spending Account (HSA)
  • Transportation Benefits
  • Employee Assistance Program
  • Time Off/Leave (PTO, Vacation or Sick Leave)
