Development Tools & High performance computing

Snapshot

We are seeking a highly skilled Infrastructure Engineer with a specialized focus on high-performance computing and development tooling. You will be instrumental in building and maintaining the infrastructure that empowers our team to develop, test, and deploy cutting-edge computational design software. This role demands a deep understanding of cloud infrastructure, HPC practices, testing methodologies, and the ability to create robust, scalable, and efficient development environments.

About Us

The next frontier for artificial intelligence is designing a better physical world and Braid is at the forefront of this challenge. Founded late 2020 in Tokyo, we are committed to expanding human creativity and engineering by building the software technology for the future of design through a blend of mathematics, physics, computer science, and human ingenuity. We are scientists and engineers, designers and inventors, problem solvers and troublemakers, building principled artificial intelligence for the future of automation for advanced engineering design.

The Role

As our Infrastructure Engineer focused on high-performance computing and development tools, you will be at the forefront of building and maintaining the mission-critical infrastructure that powers our innovation. This multifaceted role will see you taking ownership of our cloud-based HPC environment and the suite of tools that enable our software development lifecycle. Your core responsibilities will revolve around designing and implementing scalable HPC infrastructure, establishing robust development pipelines with a strong emphasis on testing and QA, and ensuring the efficient management of our critical software assets.

Key Responsibilities

• Design and implement infrastructure tailored for high-performance computing workloads.
• Develop and maintain robust CI/CD pipelines optimized for performance testing and validation.
• Create and manage infrastructure for comprehensive logging, debugging, and monitoring of complex computational processes.
• Establish and maintain versioning systems for both data and code, ensuring reproducibility and traceability.
• Manage and optimize the deployment and integration of proprietary and third-party libraries.
• Design and implement testing and QA infrastructure to ensure the reliability and performance of our software.
• Automate infrastructure provisioning and configuration using tools like Terraform or Ansible.
• Optimize infrastructure for performance, scalability, and cost-effectiveness, with a focus on HPC requirements.
• Ensure the security and compliance of our infrastructure, particularly in high-performance computing environments.
• Troubleshoot and resolve complex infrastructure issues related to HPC and development workflows.

About You

You are a highly motivated and experienced infrastructure professional with a passion for enabling cutting-edge research and development through robust and efficient systems. You possess a strong understanding of both cloud infrastructure and the unique demands of high-performance computing. Critically, you have a proven track record of building and managing infrastructure that supports comprehensive software development workflows, including rigorous testing, continuous integration, and meticulous version control. You are a problem-solver who thrives in a collaborative environment and are eager to contribute to a team pushing the boundaries of computational design.
