Guardant's HPC team builds and operates the computational technology backbone of the company. This includes scalable data storage that holds petabytes of genomics data, high-performance compute clusters running a custom bioinformatics pipeline in production and R&D environments, and the software infrastructure that hosts an ecosystem of services for internal data processing and external data integration.
The HPC engineering team is looking for a Staff-level engineer with broad, all-round HPC competency and specialized depth in one or more of the following: Red Hat-family OS management, networking, storage, Kubernetes, or Slurm. Experience applying these skills both on-premise and in the cloud is a plus, as we continue to evolve our HPC footprint. This role carries technical depth and cross-team representation for HPC compute, networking, and storage-integration initiatives, partnering closely with our engineering team and our managed service provider (MSP) as we scale operations. To support Guardant Health's fast growth over the next few years, we need a strong technical engineer who can help maintain and grow the HPC infrastructure through this expansion while working closely with corporate IT, SQA, and DevOps/SRE teams. Strong teamwork and the ability to manage multiple in-flight, cross-functional projects at once are essential for success in this role.
About the Role
You enjoy an agile, very fast paced and highly technical environment. You are a self-driven, accomplished technologist who strives to continually improve your skills as the HPC landscape evolves and the computational infrastructure scales. You are dedicated to engineering excellence yet pragmatic and flexible. You have the ability to maintain the day-to-day support SLA while running various key projects that move the business forward. You are comfortable being the deepest technical voice in the room on your declared specialism, even among more senior colleagues, while operating as a peer to the other engineers on the team.
