About the role
ABOUT US
Alembic is the pioneering Causal AI platform. We help the world's largest enterprises move past correlation to prove what actually drives business outcomes — the question marketing and growth teams have never been able to answer with confidence. Fortune 100 companies including Nvidia, Delta Air Lines, and Mars use Alembic to make multimillion-dollar decisions on trusted, causal evidence.
We're backed by a $145M Series B from WndrCo (founded by Jeffrey Katzenberg), Jensen Huang, Joe Montana, Prysm Capital, and Accenture. Our models run on our own NVIDIA DGX SuperPOD built on Grace Blackwell infrastructure — one of the fastest private supercomputers in the world. (We've melted GPUs getting here.)
ABOUT THE ROLE
We're building infrastructure that has to perform under real-world scale, reliability, and security demands — and we're looking for an engineer who wants to own the foundation it runs on. This isn't a traditional "keep the lights on" role.
You'll design and operate the global network and reliability layer behind one of the world's fastest private supercomputers — the fabric powering distributed compute, ML workloads, real-time analytics, and mission-critical enterprise systems. You'll work across networking, systems, automation, observability, and reliability engineering to scale a platform where performance genuinely matters, with real influence over architecture decisions.
It's a strong fit if you like solving deep infrastructure problems, building resilient systems, automating everything repetitive, and owning architecture rather than just maintaining it.
WHAT YOU'LL DO
- Architect and operate scalable, secure network architecture for high-security requirements and large-scale machine learning workloads.
- Own network device configuration management end to end, ensuring consistency and reliability across the fleet.
- Improve system and network reliability and performance through automation, observability, and proactive capacity planning.
- Implement and manage complex network protocols and connectivity, including BGP, VPNs, and WAN circuits and external peering.
- Build and maintain comprehensive monitoring, alerting, and incident response — SLOs, runbooks, and on-call rotations — and drive post-incident analysis and continuous improvement.
- Ensure security, compliance, and operational readiness across our network and cloud infrastructure.
- Partner across engineering and data science to drive a culture of performance and reliability.
WHAT WILL HELP YOU SUCCEED
- 8+ years in network or infrastructure engineering, including 5+ years in datacenter operations and/or systems and network administration.
- A strong background in network security, architecture, design, and operations.
- Extensive hands-on experience with network devices (firewalls, switches, load balancers) and large-scale architectures and protocols — BGP, QoS, MPLS, and IPsec VPNs.
