[Hiring] Technical Team Leader @NexGen Cloud

2d ago - NexGen Cloud is hiring a remote Technical Team Leader. 💸 Salary: unspecified 📍Location: Australia

Role Description

This role exists because we are scaling Hyperstack rapidly to meet global demand for GPU-powered infrastructure across AI, ML, and HPC workloads. As our OpenStack and Kubernetes environments grow in complexity, we need strong technical leadership to keep everything stable, scalable, and moving forward.

You’ll have direct ownership over the performance, reliability, and evolution of our OpenStack and Kubernetes platforms in-region, while leading a small, high-calibre team of engineers.

Role positioning:

  • This is a role for someone who enjoys leading from the front—hands-on when needed, but equally comfortable setting direction, making decisions, and holding the bar high.
  • You’ll see the direct impact of your work on a platform that’s genuinely powering next-gen AI infrastructure.

What You’ll Be Doing

  • Own and drive the design, deployment, and operation of OpenStack and Kubernetes clusters optimised for GPU workloads.
  • Lead and develop a team of 4–5 infrastructure engineers, setting clear direction and standards.
  • Build and improve infrastructure through automation (IaC, GitOps, CI/CD pipelines).
  • Ensure platform reliability through strong monitoring, observability, and incident management practices.
  • Collaborate closely with DevOps, Product, and Support teams to align infrastructure with real-world customer needs.
  • Identify opportunities to simplify, standardise, and scale systems as the platform grows.
  • Take ownership of operational governance including incident, problem, and change management.
  • Communicate clearly with leadership on platform performance, risks, and improvements.

Qualifications

  • Strong hands-on experience operating OpenStack in production environments.
  • Experience running production-grade Kubernetes clusters (ideally bare metal or private cloud).
  • Solid Linux, networking, and storage fundamentals with a pragmatic troubleshooting approach.
  • Experience with infrastructure automation, CI/CD, and Git-based workflows.
  • Ability to work in a fast-moving, scale-up environment.
  • Proven leadership or mentoring experience within infrastructure/platform teams.
  • Experience managing incidents and coordinating response during critical service events.
  • Strong communication skills, particularly translating technical issues to non-technical stakeholders.

Requirements

  • Experience integrating Kubernetes with OpenStack (Nice to Have).
  • Exposure to GPU infrastructure, HPC, or large-scale compute platforms (Nice to Have).
  • Familiarity with advanced networking or cloud-native ecosystems (Nice to Have).
  • Contributions to open-source or cloud-native communities (Nice to Have).

Benefits

  • Competitive salary and annual discretionary bonus scheme.
  • Employee wellbeing benefits.
  • 25 days of holiday, plus public holidays.
  • Flexible working arrangements (remote or hybrid, depending on role and location).
  • Real ownership and autonomy, with the trust to take initiative and experiment.
  • The opportunity to make a visible, meaningful impact as we scale.
  • Clear career progression and growth opportunities in a fast-growing company.
  • A collaborative, international culture built on trust, transparency, and ownership.
  • The chance to help shape NexGen Cloud’s team, culture, and future alongside ambitious, mission-driven colleagues.
