Founding Cloud & HPC Engineer
Barcelona
HybridSalary + real pre-seed equity
Temple Compute is a deep-tech company founded by Barcelona Supercomputing Center ex-researchers. Our platform lets biotech teams, materials scientists, and AI researchers run complex simulation workflows without ever touching a cluster config file. Auto-provisioned HPC or cloud.
The Role Founding infrastructure hire
You own multi-cloud orchestration, HPC integrations, and the compute routing logic that sits at the core of the product. No legacy systems. Full ownership from day one.
What You Need
Cloud infrastructure at production scale (AWS and Scaleway a strong plus)
Infrastructure as Code: Terraform or equivalent
Docker and containerized workloads
Linux, networking, distributed systems fundamentals
CI/CD and observability
Security and reliability as first-class concerns
What Sets You Apart
Kubernetes / GPU workloads
HPC schedulers (SLURM, PBS...)
Platform engineering
Scientific or research computing environments
A passion for tinkering with home-made servers
What "Founding Engineer" Actually Means Here
You shape infrastructure architecture from scratch
You make core platform decisions with direct input from the founder
You hold real equity in a startup at pre-seed
You work on problems most cloud engineers never touch: hybrid HPC/cloud routing, burst provisioning, reproducible scientific execution environments
