• Lead a team of senior and staff engineers building and operating a Kubernetes-native inference platform.

• Define and defend SLIs/SLOs and error budgets, and build the operational practice behind them.
• Grow and promote engineers, including into senior and staff-level roles.
• Run performance calibration and make accurate leveling decisions.
• Manage underperformance directly and fairly, and retain top performers.
• Build and own a hiring bar and interview process for senior engineering roles.

• 8+ years of experience building and operating large-scale distributed systems or cloud services.
• 3+ years of engineering management experience, including managing senior and staff-level engineers.
• Deep expertise in Kubernetes at production scale, including orchestration, scheduling, and service design.
• Strong understanding of distributed systems, networked services, and performance under load.
• Experience with multi-tenant platforms: isolation, quota, noisy-neighbor mitigation, and fair sharing.
• Excellent communication and stakeholder management.
• Experience operating low-latency, high-throughput request-serving systems against strict P95/P99 targets.
• Working knowledge of autoscaling, load balancing, admission control, and traffic management at scale.
• Experience with capacity planning and demand forecasting for constrained or expensive resources.
• Familiarity with GPU-backed workloads and the scheduling and utilization trade-offs they introduce.
• Progressive delivery practices: canarying, feature gating, safe rollback for always-on services.

• Experience operating a customer-facing cloud service or developer platform, including API and control-plane design.
• Familiarity with inference-serving stacks such as vLLM, Triton, TensorRT-LLM, Ray Serve, or TorchServe.
• Experience operating multi-region fleets at a cloud provider or hyperscaler.
• Familiarity with observability stacks (Prometheus, Grafana, OpenTelemetry).
• Experience scaling teams, tooling, and processes in a high-growth environment.
