Let's be clear - this isn't just another engineering role.This is for builders who operate at the sharp end of distributed systems, AI infrastructure, and scale.
If you're currently thriving at a top-tier tech firm or quant environment, and you're starting to feel like you could be doing something bigger, faster, and more impactful - keep reading.

The Mission:
You'll be at the core of a high-impact team designing and scaling the infrastructure that powers Generative AI across an entire organisation.

We're talking about:

• Systems that don't just work - they scale effortlessly
• Platforms that enable AI experimentation AND production at speed
• Infrastructure that turns cutting-edge ideas into real-world deployment

This is a rare opportunity to help define how GAI is built, deployed, and scaled in a serious engineering environment.

What You'll Actually Be Doing

• Architect and scale high-performance distributed systems
• Build AI infrastructure platforms (on-prem + hybrid environments)
• Solve complex challenges around:
• • orchestration
  • compute management
  • large-scale services
• Work hands-on with technologies like Kubernetes and modern infra tooling
• Lead from the front - own greenfield projects
• Mentor and elevate a small, high-calibre team
• Collaborate with elite engineers to ship systems that actually matter

Who This Is For
You're not just a coder. You're a technical leader with serious engineering depth.

• 8+ years in software engineering
• Bachelor degree in Computer Science from a top 20 US university
• Currently (and for 2+yrs each time) at top tech firms or quant finance companies
• Strong background in distributed systems / infrastructure / platform engineering
• Proven track record of owning and delivering complex systems at scale
• Experience mentoring or leading engineers
• You thrive in fast-moving, intellectually demanding environments

And most importantly: You have taste. You care about how systems are designed, built, and scaled.

What's On Offer

• Base salary: $300k - $350k

• Exceptional overall package (as you'd expect at this level)

Why This Role?
Because:

• You'll work on problems that actually stretch you
