Description
We are seeking a Systems Development Engineer to own the research compute platform for Fauna Robotics. You will build and operate the physical and virtual infrastructure that our ML scientists use to train reinforcement learning policies for real robots, from fleet provisioning and job scheduling to cloud burst capacity and environment reproducibility.

This role requires both strong systems engineering fundamentals and genuine comfort working alongside researchers. The ideal candidate is as happy diagnosing a GPU thermal fault as they are designing a job scheduler, and treats “the scientist’s training run just works” as the north star for everything they build.

Key job responsibilities
- Own on-prem GPU compute end-to-end: provisioning, imaging, driver and CUDA management, monitoring, failure diagnosis, hardware RMA, and capacity planning

- Build and operate a job scheduling layer (Slurm, Ray, SkyPilot, or equivalent) so scientists submit tr...
