### Responsibilities

**Linux Systems & Automation (Core)**

- Manage large-scale Linux environments: troubleshooting and root-cause analysis  
- Write maintainable, hand-off-ready Bash / Ansible / Python automation  
- On-call for infrastructure, CI/CD, and production service incidents

**HPC Cluster & Storage**

- Operate HPC clusters (Slurm) along with usage analytics, auditing, and monitoring tools  
- Maintain and plan storage for compute environments (Lustre, NAS)

**Cloud & Hybrid Infrastructure**

- Manage multi-cloud environments (AWS, Alibaba Cloud, GCP) with Terraform / AWS CDK  
- Build and operate Docker (ECS) / Kubernetes (EKS) environments and their deployment workflows

**CI/CD & Developer Experience**

- Operate self-hosted GitLab server and Runner fleet  
- Operate CI/CD systems and design deployment pipelines for research and other projects

**GenAI / Internal Platform**

- Build internal AI platforms (LangChain / LangGraph / Bedrock, Elasticsearch RAG)  
- Develop MCP servers, chatbots, AI agents, and similar services

### Requirements

- \*\*5+ years\*\* of hands-on Linux systems administration and infrastructure operations experience  
- Solid Linux internals knowledge (process / memory / filesystem / networking / systemd / cgroup); able to localize issues even without complete logs  
- Strong Bash / Shell scripting skills — able to write maintainable scripts that others can pick up  
- Programming ability for data processing, CLI tools, and API services; Python proficiency preferred  
- Solid storage fundamentals with hands-on experience: RAID levels and rebuild trade-offs, filesystem selection, snapshot and backup planning; NAS / shared storage (NFS / SMB) operations experience  
- Experience with at least one major public cloud (AWS / GCP / Alibaba Cloud) and IaC tooling (Terraform / CDK / Ansible)  
- Familiar with containerization and orchestration (Docker, Kubernetes)  
- CI/CD pipeline design and operations experience (GitLab CI / Jenkins / Airflow)  
- Able to own a cross-service subsystem end-to-end: design, implementation, documentation, handoff  
- \*\*Strong autonomy\*\*: can drive a problem from discovery, root-cause investigation, decision-making, to delivery with minimal supervision; able to make judgment calls under incomplete information and proactively communicate progress, risks, and rationale  
- \*\*Self-directed\*\*: doesn't wait for tickets — identifies problems worth solving and prioritizes them independently

### Nice to Have

- HPC scheduler experience (Slurm / PBS / LSF)  
- Parallel filesystem operations experience (Lustre / GPFS / BeeGFS)  
- Advanced Linux performance analysis (perf, eBPF, ftrace) and kernel parameter tuning  
- DB operations experience (MySQL, ClickHouse)  
- Low-latency network tuning and cross-datacenter link optimization  
- LLM application development (LangChain, RAG, Agent, MCP)  
- Self-managed Kubernetes experience (Kubespray, kubeadm)  
- GPU server operations (single-node): NVIDIA driver / CUDA toolkit version management, `nvidia-smi` / DCGM monitoring, nvidia-container-toolkit integration, troubleshooting XID / ECC errors and thermal throttling  
- Experience or familiarity with integrating GPU resources into Slurm: GRES configuration, cgroup-based GPU isolation, user/job-level resource limits
