Lead the architecture and implementation of scalable cloud compute functionality across ARM64 and x86 platforms. Design hypervisor layers, cross-platform build pipelines, and performance optimization solutions while writing, reviewing, documenting, and testing production software. Coordinate globally to deliver compute features and resolve low-level software issues. Provide technical, organizational, and functional leadership to engineers.

Design and scale ARM64 compute platform infrastructure, hypervisor integrations, instance management, resource orchestration tools, and compute APIs. Develop and maintain low-level services using Python, Go, or compiled systems languages. Collaborate with hardware and global engineering teams, participate in design reviews, debug distributed Linux systems, and mentor junior engineers.

Design and develop backend compute services, APIs, orchestration tools, and virtualization infrastructure for ARM64 and x86_64 cloud instances. Improve platform performance, scalability, reliability, and feature sets while integrating ARM server hardware. Troubleshoot complex low-level distributed Linux systems, collaborate across teams, and support the full software development lifecycle.

Develop and own compute and GPU server platforms from architecture through global deployment. Responsibilities include schematic and layout reviews, design for manufacturability, new product introduction, board and system bring-up, validation, debugging, firmware and BIOS feature management, technology qualification, and vendor coordination. The role requires hands-on server architecture, board-level design, Linux and scripting expertise, platform validation, and five-day-per-week presence in the Cambridge office.

Leads an engineering team developing, maintaining, testing, and optimizing custom Linux kernel infrastructure at planetary scale. Responsibilities include feature development, performance tuning, vulnerability management, hardware support, low-level debugging, reliability and security strategy, mentoring, quality standards, and collaboration with technical teams and open-source communities. The role also requires hands-on technical contributions when needed.
