Work alongside founders and experts in AI infrastructure, energy systems and next-generation compute. What we build here has impact beyond the business. Our AI Factories are designed to operate as assets to the energy grid to actively strengthen the communities and regions they operate in rather than drawing from them. Considering applying? You don't need a perfect background to join our team. If you're driven and curious, there's a path for you. We back our people to grow into new domains and take on challenges beyond their previous experience. ### **Role Summary** The UX Engineer will define and deliver intuitive, coherent, and technically credible user  experiences across the AI & Applications team’s internal and external product portfolio. The  role will shape how users discover, provision, operate, optimize, and troubleshoot AI  infrastructure and AI-powered services through products such as the AI Cloud Portal, Global  Operations Console, Bare Metal as a Service, Kubernetes as a Service, and future X-as-a-Service  offerings. This role sits at the intersection of user experience design, front-end engineering, product  thinking, and AI-platform understanding. The UX Engineer will translate complex infrastructure  and AI capabilities—including GPU capacity, bare-metal provisioning, Kubernetes clusters,  workload scheduling, benchmark results, model recipes, inference services, Model-to-Grid  optimization, and agentic operations—into clear workflows, understandable interfaces, and  actionable experiences for customers, developers, AI researchers, support teams, operators,  and internal delivery teams. A central focus will be making sophisticated AI-factory capabilities usable. The UX Engineer will  help users understand and act on model-to-grid recommendations, scheduler decisions,  workload placement, cluster health, benchmark outcomes, capacity availability, performance  bottlenecks, inference cost, energy or power signals, and agent-generated operational insights.  The role will ensure that advanced automation remains transparent, controllable, auditable,  and trustworthy—particularly where agentic systems recommend or execute actions. The UX Engineer will report to the Head of AI & Applications, working closely with other AI  engineers, DevOps and scheduler engineers, inference and optimization engineers, platform, infrastructure, security, global operations, and customer-facing teams. The role will create a  scalable design system and product experience that supports both immediate platform needs  and future AI-factory and XaaS product expansion. ### **Key Responsibilities** * Own end-to-end UX design and front-end experience quality for the AI Cloud Portal,  Global Operations Console, Bare Metal as a Service, Kubernetes as a Service, and future  XaaS products. * Conduct user discovery and workflow analysis with key personas, including AI  researchers, ML engineers, application developers, cloud administrators, tenant  administrators, infrastructure operators, support engineers, data-centre teams, and  external customers. * Translate product requirements, user needs, operational workflows, technical  constraints, and system telemetry into user journeys, information architectures,  wireframes, prototypes, interaction patterns, and production-ready interfaces. * Design self-service experiences for discovering, requesting, provisioning, configuring,  accessing, monitoring, scaling, updating, and decommissioning bare-metal GPU capacity  and Kubernetes environments. * Design clear workflows for GPU and AI workload management, including job submission,  job templates, model and workload recipes, queue selection, quota visibility, priority  requests, capacity reservations, workload status, failures, retries, and support  escalation. * Create usable interface patterns that explain proprietary scheduler decisions, including  why a job is queued, admitted, deferred, placed on a particular topology, pre-empted,  rescheduled, or unable to run. * Design Model-to-Grid experiences that help users and operators understand the  relationship between model or workload requirements, benchmark results, GPU  resources, network topology, storage, capacity, power, thermal conditions, and  scheduling outcomes. * Create user-facing workflows for selecting and applying validated model, training, fine-tuning, and inference recipes based on workload goals such as latency, throughput,  accuracy, cost, energy efficiency, GPU availability, or time-to-results. * Design intuitive benchmarking experiences, including benchmark configuration,  execution tracking, result exploration, comparison of baselines and variants,  reproducibility metadata, bottleneck identification, and actionable optimization recommendations. * Shape the Global Operations Console experience for monitoring and managing fleet-level AI-factory operations, including cluster health, capacity, workload demand,  infrastructure events, service status, scheduler health, resource utilization, maintenance  activities, and operational incidents. * Make complex infrastructure status and telemetry actionable through dashboards, drill-down views, alerts, guided troubleshooting, root-cause context, recommended actions,  and role-appropriate escalation paths.
