We are always moving forward - always pushing ourselves to go further in our efforts to build a more equitable, inclusive world for our employees, our customers and our communities.

The Role

Accountable for objective proof that the infrastructure is ready for production. Owns validation, performance baselines, defect closure, and the acceptance evidence that supports customer sign-off and go/no-go decisions.

Key responsibilities

• Create a requirements-to-test traceability matrix and staged entry/exit gates for site readiness, physical installation, power-on, fabric, storage, platform, burn-in, performance, resiliency, and handover.

• Develop version-controlled provisioning, health-check, diagnostic, stress, regression, and evidence-collection automation.

• Validate GPU or accelerator health, PCIe, GPU interconnect (for example NVLink/NVSwitch), NIC/HCA/DPU, InfiniBand or Ethernet/RoCE fabrics, storage throughput, Kubernetes, operators, scheduling, and telemetry.

• Execute failure and recovery tests including node loss, link degradation, service restart, workload rescheduling, rebuild, replacement, and return to service.

• Establish workload-relevant baselines for collective communications, network, storage, inference, training, and platform operations without assuming ownership of every customer model benchmark.

• Triage failures, isolate defects, coordinate corrective actions, retest, and maintain auditable defect and acceptance records.

• Produce formal acceptance packages containing configuration baselines, test results, exceptions, waivers, evidence, sign-offs, and residual risks.

• Use deployment findings and production incidents to extend automated coverage and prevent recurrence.
