Diagnose Linux device-driver, kernel-module and operating-system issues, ensuring compatibility across hardware, firmware and software dependencies.
Evaluate and qualify enterprise server platforms, validating BIOS settings, BMC/IPMI firmware, hardware health and system configurations.
Deploy and support GPU-accelerated infrastructure, including NVIDIA drivers, CUDA and AI/ML platforms; optimize compute-intensive workloads.
Configure and troubleshoot high-performance networking using NVIDIA/Mellanox technologies, RDMA, RoCE, InfiniBand and high-speed Ethernet.
Implement observability, logging and cluster health management using Prometheus, Grafana, ELK, OpenTelemetry or equivalent platforms.
Establish GitOps, CI/CD, Helm and Infrastructure-as-Code practices, including automated validation, release management and rollback procedures.
Implement enterprise identity integration, RBAC, secrets management, security hardening and container security controls.
Support secure, mission-critical and air-gapped environments, including customer deployments, controlled upgrades and critical incident resolution.
Lead troubleshooting and root-cause analysis across applications, Kubernetes, Linux, storage, networking, GPUs and server hardware.
Coordinate with vendors, customers and cross-functional teams to resolve integration issues and deliver validated infrastructure.
Maintain architecture diagrams, configuration baselines, runbooks and recovery procedures; mentor engineers and lead operational handover.
