Exa is building a search engine from scratch to serve AIs. Our Infrastructure Team is scaling the backbone that powers Exa’s GPU clusters and high-performance compute system. Basically, we're building Google-scale infrastructure to serve search for this new AI world, and we need more engineers who can build that.
Desired Experience
You have experience designing and operating large-scale infrastructure -- GPU clusters, large kubernetes clusters, cloud batchjob systems
You bring an obsessive mindset — always thinking about reliability, observability, and optimization across the entire stack
Example Projects
Setup a $20m cluster
Scale our AWS batchjob system to handle map reduce jobs over 10s of thousands of machines
Design GPU scheduling software so we max out our cluster utilization
We are open to sponsoring international candidates (e.g., STEM OPT, OPT, H1B, O1, E3).
This is an in-person opportunity in San Francisco. We're big believers in in-person culture!
