Who You Are

You're good at what you do and possess the required experience to prove it. However, equally as important - you have a growth mindset; keen to drive your own personal and professional development. You are customer-focused - someone who prioritizes customer success in their work. And finally, you're open and borderless - naturally inclusive in how you work with others.

• Produce and approve HLD, LLD, BOM, topology, IP plan, port and cable matrix, compatibility matrix, security requirements, implementation guidance, test strategy, and acceptance criteria.

• Chair architecture and design reviews; resolve cross-domain decisions with customer, OEM, network, storage, platform, facilities, security, and operations stakeholders.

• Define expansion units, scale boundaries, lifecycle strategy, upgrade paths, rollback principles, and Day 2 operating model.

• Mentor engineers and retain design authority through build, commissioning, validation, production handoff, and optimization.

Required Professional Experience

• 10+ years in data center, HPC, cloud, platform, or distributed infrastructure, including architecture leadership.

• Depth in at least two of compute, network/fabric, storage, or facilities, with working fluency in the others plus resiliency, security, and lifecycle.

• Customer-facing technical leadership, design governance, risk management, and executive communication.

Preferred Qualifications

• Large-scale HPC or supercomputing architecture.

• OEM GPU platforms, RDMA/RoCEv2 fabrics, parallel storage, liquid cooling, or cloud GPU architecture.

• Cisco, Dell, HPE, Lenovo, Supermicro or equivalent validated-system architecture.

• NVIDIA infrastructure certification (or equivalent demonstrated delivery expertise) and cloud or data center architecture certifications.
