What they're looking for
- Security : design the secure-by-default environments and access patterns that: enable deep model access for an organization whose research requires it - done well, the same design improves both our security posture and research productivity.
- Privacy : build data-access patterns that ensure policy adherence as our: research moves from theory into practical application
- Data & Compute Management: manage research data at petabyte scale and make efficient use of large accelerator fleets - storage lifecycle, capacity planning, and scheduling.
- Developer experience: agentic engineering, tooling and observability that keep researchers moving fast
