Job details

Infra Engineer

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!
