Principal Core Infrastructure Engineer

• Leads development and begins architecting scalable, container-based services that build, validate, and monitor liquid-cooled GPU infrastructure across factory environments. 
• Develops secure infrastructure, control-plane workflows, and data-plane test capabilities that orchestrate manufacturing test lifecycles, operator workflows, quality gates, fleet status, and business reporting for platforms including GB200, GB300, VR, MI355, and MI455.
•  Automates and maintains GPU test validation; manages consistent firmware, software, and hardware configuration; and develops repair and triage capabilities that identify root causes and guide recovery. 
• Partners with Supply Chain Operations, Hardware Development, external manufacturing partners, data-center operations, NVIDIA, and AMD to resolve issues before racks ship. 
• Establishes manufacturing yield, throughput, quality, and deployment-readiness metrics that reduce rework and downstream failures, improve data-center ingestion, and accelerate reliable hyperscale AI infrastructure delivery.
