The opportunity

AI needs a new infrastructure layer. We're building it at Modal.

What you'll do

  • + years of experience writing high-quality production code

  • Experience operating fleets of physical hardware (bare metal provisioning,: BMC/IPMI, PXE or network boot, firmware) or building the control planes that manage them (the more challenges you've worked through, the better)

  • Strong cloud skills

  • Strong knowledge of low-level operating system foundations (Linux kernel,: drivers, networking, file systems, containers, etc.)

  • Effective at debugging across layers, from BGP flapping, Linux RPS, and vBIOS: bugs to a Python control-plane service

  • Willingness to step into the thick of it with our on-call rotation and respond to production incidents

What they're looking for

  • Experience with GPUs and the NVIDIA software stack in production (drivers,: health monitoring, XIDs, RDMA/NVLink)
  • Prior experience with Go
  • Automatic remediation of unhealthy machines (power cycling, reimaging, GPU: recovery) to maximize uptime and minimize operator toil.
  • Automatic integration of new CPU, GPU, and storage servers into the fleet: while managing hardware and network heterogeneity.
