About this role
ABOUT THE JOB
FriendliAI is looking for a Cloud Infrastructure Engineer to own the architecture and evolution of the cluster platform behind our GPU-accelerated AI inference cloud. As a Software Engineer, Cloud Infrastructure, you will design how our clusters are built and connected, extend Kubernetes where its defaults fall short, and own the network path that inference traffic depends on.
Inference is an unforgiving workload for Kubernetes. Traffic is bursty and latency-sensitive, GPU capacity is scarce and inelastic, tenants must stay isolated, and multi-node serving depends on the network holding up under sustained load. This is a hands-on architecture role for an engineer who has already run large clusters in production and wants to push them further.
