Job Description

About

Compute is a commodity. We think people should buy it like one.

Startups shouldn’t be forced to buy a year’s worth of compute time in order to get market rate and compute providers shouldn’t go bankrupt because they can’t fully book their clusters.

At SF Compute, our goal is to solve this issue the same way this was solved for every other commodity — by building a venue where compute contracts are traded in real-time and by bringing a new kind of participant into the supply chain, traders.

If we succeed, buyers will be able to get a good price for any order, whether it’s 32 H100s for a month or 8,000 H100s for an hour, and sellers will instantly book out their clusters because traders will speculatively buy them, for a spread. Every FLOP will flow through us somewhere in the supply chain. What Brent is for oil, we will be for compute.

About the Role

ML training clusters are some of the most high performance computers on the planet. Even relatively small clusters would have been in the TOP500 5 years ago. Our supercomputing team is responsible for keeping our compute clusters running smoothly, monitoring hardware health, participating in on-call rotation, and fixing things when they go wrong. We believe strongly in automation — code is the only reliable way to manage hardware at scale. As we scale, this will become a more data-driven role, predicting failures before they happen. We’re a small team, so you’ll be spending time talking to customers as well.

About You

  • You’ve managed at least one GPU training cluster in the past (ideally a cluster with >1k GPU’s but not required)

  • You deeply understand Linux, networking fundamentals, CUDA, NCCL, and Infiniband

  • You enjoy automating hardware deployments, leveraging IaC wherever possible

  • You appreciate and value good documentation

Some Nice to Haves

  • Experience with Rust (our bare metal tooling is written in Rust)

  • Experience with Linux virtualization (KVM, QEMU, libvirt, etc.)

  • Experience with Kubernetes implementation including CRD’s and CNI’s

  • Experience with HPC network architectures (eBGP, fat-tree, VXLAN, MCLAG, etc.)

Compensation

US: $170k - $300k + equity

Benefits

Generous equity grant

Team members are offered a competitive salary along with equity in the company

Visa Sponsorships

Yes, we sponsor visas and work permits

Retirement matching

We match 401(k) plans up to 4%

Time off

We offer unlimited paid time off as well as 10+ observed holidays

Parental leave

We offer biological, adoptive, and foster parents paid time off to spend quality time with family

Daily lunch

We cover lunch daily for employees

Unlimited office book budget

You can buy as many books for the office as you want
