Anduril Industries Senior AI Infrastructure Engineer at Anduril Industries responsible for leading GPU training infrastructure stability and scalability. Focus on cluster robustness, automated resilience, and optimizing Kubernetes, Run:AI, and Ray scheduling for ML platform teams.

Responsibilities

Rack, stack, cable, and bring up GPU compute (H200/B200/B300, NVL72) including physical topology, power, cooling, firmware/BIOS, and burn in validation.
Build and tune the interconnect fabric (NVLink, InfiniBand, RoCE, Spectrum-X) connecting hundreds of GPUs into low latency training and inference clusters.
Integrate high performance parallel storage (VAST, DDN, Weka) to sustain the throughput demanded by distributed training and terabyte scale multi modal datasets across Anduril's programs.
Automate cluster deployment and configuration end to end, including infrastructure as code for bring up, firmware/driver management, and fabric config, so new capacity comes online with minimal manual work.
Operate and extend our Kubernetes/Run:AI environment for GPU scheduling, quota management, and multi tenant workload isolation across research and engineering teams company wide.
Own fleet health: monitoring, alerting, and rapid triage of hardware and network faults (bad transceivers, GPU Xid errors, NCCL/collective failures, RoCE congestion).
Onboard engineers and researchers onto the platform and act as their escalation point, working directly alongside them to debug, train, and optimize their workloads whenever infrastructure, not the model, is the bottleneck.
Partner with product facing teams across Anduril to understand emerging compute needs and translate them into platform capability.

Qualification

10+ years in a hands on infrastructureKubernetes requiredStrong automation background$166

Required

10+ years in a hands on infrastructure, HPC, or datacenter engineering role supporting GPU compute at scale.
Hands on experience with H200/B200/B300 (or comparable) GPU systems: bring up, cabling, firmware/driver management.
Experience with high performance interconnects (NVLink, InfiniBand, RoCE, Spectrum-X) in clusters of hundreds of GPUs.
Experience with high performance parallel storage (VAST, DDN, Weka, Lustre, or similar).
Kubernetes required; Run:ai or similar GPU scheduling/orchestration experience strongly preferred.
Strong automation background. You build repeatable, automated deployment pipelines rather than manual processes.
Able to lift/move 50+ lbs and perform physical datacenter work (rack/stack/cable/troubleshoot).
Eligible to obtain and maintain an active U.S. Top Secret clearance.

Preferred

Experience with NVIDIA NVL72 rack scale systems.
Experience supporting LLM token serving/inference infrastructure alongside training clusters.
Network fabric tuning experience (congestion control, adaptive routing, QoS) for RoCE/InfiniBand at scale.
Familiarity with GPU/network observability tooling (DCGM, fabric telemetry) and automated fault detection.
Experience supporting infrastructure as a shared platform serving multiple internal customer teams with differing requirements.
$166,000—$220,000 USD
