Senior HPC Infrastructure Engineer, up to £80k - Office based (commutable from Milton Keynes, Oxfordshire, Warwick)
This one's for the Linux and HPC specialists who want their next role to actually stretch them.
I'm working with a high-performance engineering organisation operating right at the edge of what's technically possible.
This isn't a business that tolerates "good enough" infrastructure.
Every cluster, every scheduling decision, every millisecond of latency matters to the outcomes this team delivers.
They need a genuinely senior HPC Infrastructure Engineer. Not someone growing into the title, someone who's already lived it.
What you'll be doing
Designing, deploying and maintaining HPC clusters, container platforms (Kubernetes/Docker Swarm) and machine learning infrastructure.
You'll work closely with Platform Engineering and Infrastructure teams to build resilient solutions, manage lifecycle activities, and provide 3rd line support across HPC and Linux environments.
You'll also have a hand in Cyber Security best practice, ITIL Change Management, and continual service improvement.
- What you'll bring (most of the following, not all)
- HPC cluster management and scheduling (Slurm, Kubernetes)
- Enterprise storage platforms and parallel filesystems
- Infini Band or high speed networking
- GPU compute workloads and scheduling
- Hybrid/cloud HPC and containerised compute
In an ideal world, you will have come from an advanced technology, simulation-heavy, or other performance-critical sectors, but as long as you have depth in HPC experience and are comfortable managing competing priorities without losing sight of the detail, then that will be more than good enough.
Salary up to £80k, fully office-based.
