  • Provide architectural leadership for GPU platforms, including cluster design, scheduling, capacity planning, monitoring, and lifecycle management
  • Own and govern the enterprise inventory of platform and infrastructure APIs, including validation of data collection intervals
  • Define observability strategies for metrics, logs, traces, cost, capacity, and model-serving telemetry, with strong data quality controls
  • Apply FinOps principles to enable cost allocation, showback/chargeback, unit economics, and consumption governance for AI infrastructure
  • Lead telemetry retention and audit practices to support compliance, incident analysis, and resilience "warm-up" recovery capabilities
  • Partner with engineering, operations, finance, security, risk, and audit teams to align architecture and operational outcomes

Required Qualifications

  • 10+ years of experience in infrastructure architecture, platform engineering, or private cloud engineering within large enterprise environments
  • Proven experience designing and operating hybrid data center infrastructure, including virtualization, containers, storage, and networking
  • Hands-on experience with GPU and accelerated compute platforms, including capacity planning and operational management
  • Demonstrated ownership of enterprise observability and telemetry programs, including API inventory and collection governance
  • Direct FinOps experience in large organizations, including cost allocation, showback/chargeback, and infrastructure unit economics
  • Strong understanding of resilience, recovery, and operational readiness dependencies
  • Excellent communication and stakeholder management skills across both technical and non-technical teams
