The role
Nscale is looking for a Director of Deployment Engineering to lead the systems engineering function responsible for deploying, validating, and operating the core compute platforms that underpin our AI infrastructure.

You will lead a high-performing engineering team across systems, compute operations, and deployment validation. This role combines technical leadership with operational execution: defining the standards, tooling, and processes that ensure infrastructure is reliable, scalable, production-ready, and delivered at pace.

What you’ll do
Lead and scale the systems engineering team responsible for core platform systems, deployment readiness, and compute operations.

Define and deliver multi-quarter systems engineering initiatives that improve deployment velocity, platform reliability, validation quality, and operational performance.

Establish systems validation standards for servers, GPUs, networking, storage, and supporting infrastructure before production acceptance.

Lead GPU burn-in and validation testing at scale, including thermal, power, stress,



and performance qualification.

Partner with infrastructure, network engineering, deployment, product, and operations leaders to balance long-term platform architecture with immediate business needs.

Turn ambiguous, high-impact technical challenges into clear plans, priorities, milestones, and accountable execution.

Drive alignment across interdependent teams working on compute platforms, internal infrastructure, developer tooling, and operational systems.

Raise the bar for engineering quality, automation, observability, documentation, and operational excellence.

Build scalable approaches for systems monitoring, telemetry, incident learning, and continuous platform improvement.

Travel up to 50% to support deployments, site readiness, vendor collaboration, and operational execution.

What you’ll bring
A bachelor’s degree in Computer Science, Engineering, or a related technical field.
