Job description

Systems Engineering Lead, Servers/Clusters/Supercomputers


  • Successful hires will be responsible for managing the teams that develop and maintain our compute clusters and software environment, including Linux clusters ranging from thousands to tens of thousands of CPU cores running Slurm and Kubernetes, state-of-the-art GPU clusters with hundreds of GPUs, tens of petabytes of storage, high-performance RDMA fabrics and wide-area networks, public cloud environments, large-scale scientific workflows to support our drug discovery research efforts, massively parallel custom supercomputers, and making all of the above available to researchers in a secure and convenient way. Ideal candidates will have strong fundamental knowledge of Linux concepts such as file systems, networking, and processes in addition to practical experience administering Linux systems. Relevant areas of expertise might include large-installation systems administration, HPC systems engineering, programming and scripting of distributed systems in Python, high performance data-parallel computing, systems software, software development, and deployment of security tools. Candidates should have excellent communication skills, and at least five years of experience is preferred. Experience leading and managing teams is a plus but not required. This role would be located in either our New York City offices or in our Durham, NC and Pittsburgh, PA data centers.


    The expected annual base salary for this position is $400,000–$1,000,000. Our compensation package also includes variable compensation in the form of sign-on and year-end bonuses, and generous benefits, including relocation and immigration assistance. The applicable annual base salary paid to a successful applicant will be determined based on multiple factors including the nature and extent of prior experience, educational background, and location. We follow a hybrid work schedule, in which employees work from the office three days per week, and have the option of working from home the other two days per week.
