• Ensure reliability, availability and performance of compute nodes running VMs
• Analyze and debug Linux systems across user space and kernel space, understanding capabilities, limitations and trade-offs at each layer
• Troubleshoot complex production issues involving CPU, memory, NUMA, cgroups and scheduling
• Work hands-on with virtualization and containerization, primarily using QEMU/KVM and Linux-native technologies
• Design and evolve observability as a core capability of the node layer: metrics, logs, traces, alerts, SLIs and SLOs
• Lead incident response, root-cause analysis, and postmortems, driving long-term reliability improvements
• Collaborate closely with platform, kernel/hypervisor, GPU and infrastructure teams to improve system design and operability

We expect you to have:

Nice to Have / Optional:

• Experience with Kubernetes internals or node-level components
• Hands-on experience with low-level Linux debugging tools (e.g. perf, eBPF, ftrace, strace, kernel crash dumps)
• Familiarity with large-scale compute or bare-metal platforms
• Contributions to open-source infrastructure or system software
• Experience debugging hardware and driver-level issues, including GPUs, NVLink, InfiniBand
