ABOUT THE ROLEAs an infrastructure engineer at Aaru, you will build the systems that enable our simulations to run faster, more reliably, and at greater scale. You will work across compute, networking, data pipelines, and developer tooling to remove bottlenecks from Aaru's core engineering and research workflows.
RESPONSIBILITIES- Design and build low-latency, high-throughput infrastructure for large-scale simulations
- Improve the reliability and performance of data ingestion and computation pipelines
- Identify system bottlenecks across compute, networking, storage, and orchestration
- Build tools and abstractions that help engineering and research teams move faster
- Productionize experimental research workflows into reliable, repeatable infrastructure
- Own infrastructure decisions from architecture through implementation and operation
YOU MAY BE A FIT IF- You have built infrastructure, frameworks, or internal platforms for fast-growing engineering teams
- You have deep experience debugging performance and reliability issues in distributed systems
- You are comfortable working close to networking, storage, compute, and cloud primitives
- You have helped transition research or experimental systems into production
- You care about developer experience and build systems that other engineers want to use
- You are comfortable with strongly typed languages or languages with algebraic type systems
STRONG CANDIDATES MAY ALSO HAVE- Experience with long-running computational pipelines
- Strong knowledge of networking protocols such as HTTP, TLS, TCP, or related systems
- Experience designing infrastructure for high-scale data or machine learning workloads
- A track record of finding and eliminating bottlenecks in complex systems
