AI Infrastructure Engineer (788235)

Location: On Site in Morrisville, NC
Pay Rate: Up to $55/hour
Job Type: Full Time, Contract

Are you an experienced GPU systems engineer passionate about building and maintaining high performance AI infrastructure? Join our Global Fortune 500 Tech Client, a world renowned global technology leader at their Morrisville, NC campus and play a critical role in supporting advanced machine learning and large scale AI workloads.

We're seeking a skilled AI Infrastructure Engineer who thrives at the intersection of hardware, Linux systems, and ML operations. In this role, you'll ensure GPU servers and AI clusters run at peak performance-supporting cutting edge AI research and enterprise scale LLM training environments.

What You'll Do

Hardware Management & Troubleshooting
  • Monitor, maintain, and optimize high performance GPU servers/workstations.
  • Diagnose and resolve hardware issues (GPU faults, cooling/power issues, component failures).
  • Coordinate hardware repairs, upgrades, and replacements to maintain system uptime.
Software & Driver Administration
  • Install, configure, and update Linux OS (Ubuntu/CentOS), NVIDIA CUDA drivers, and supporting software.
  • Ensure compatibility between hardware, drivers, and ML frameworks.
Performance Benchmarking & Optimization
  • Execute and analyze MLPerf or similar benchmarking suites.
  • Identify bottlenecks and tune configurations for ML training performance.
System Diagnostics & Root Cause Analysis
  • Continuously monitor system performance and stability.
  • Investigate kernel errors, networking issues, and resource contention within training clusters.
  • Implement corrective actions to prevent downtime and performance degradation.
️ Infrastructure Operations
  • Manage logging, backups, firmware updates, system patching, and cluster health.
  • Support containerized AI infrastructure using Docker/Kubernetes.
Required Qualifications
  • 3+ years managing GPU accelerated servers or HPC environments.
  • Strong Linux system administration skills (shell scripting, package management, networking).
  • Hands on experience with NVIDIA GPU hardware (A100, H100, etc.) and CUDA toolkit/drivers.
  • Familiarity with ML frameworks: TensorFlow, PyTorch, or Hugging Face.
  • Skilled in diagnostic tools: nvidia-smi, dmesg, top/htop, Prometheus/Grafana.
  • Solid understanding of AI infrastructure, containerization, and distributed training concepts.
  • Excellent problem solving abilities and proactive ownership of system reliability.
Preferred Skills
  • Experience with cluster orchestration: Slurm, Kubernetes, Ray.
  • Knowledge of server hardware diagnostics (IPMI, BIOS configs, RAID arrays).
  • Background in MLOps or DevOps for AI environments.
  • Certifications such as RHCE, NVIDIA credentials, or similar.
  • Ability to work independently in a fast paced, highly technical environment.
Why This Opportunity Stands Out
  • Direct contribution to large scale AI and LLM infrastructure.
  • Work on a state of the art enterprise campus with cutting edge GPU hardware.
  • Join an engineering team driving next generation machine learning innovation.
We're very excited about this incredible opportunity to lead in the AI Workspace with a global leader in computing.
