This architecture allows Cerebras to deliver industry-leading training and inference speeds; over 10 times faster than GPU-based hyperscale cloud inference services. \nThis order of magnitude increase in speed is transforming the user experience of AI applications, unlocking real-time iteration and increasing intelligence via additional agentic computation.\nCerebras works with the leading model labs, global enterprises, and cutting-edge AI-native startups. OpenAI recently announced a multi-year partnership with Cerebras, to deploy 750 megawatts of scale, transforming key workloads with ultra high-speed inference.\nThe Role\nWe are seeking a Senior Cloud Infrastructure Engineer to design, build, and operate the AWS infrastructure that powers Cerebras' products and platform. This is a high-ownership, hands-on role at the intersection of infrastructure engineering and reliability - you will architect scalable cloud systems, drive infrastructure-as-code practices, and partner with engineering teams to ensure our production environment is fast, resilient, and secure as we scale.\nResponsibilities\nArchitect and operate core AWS infrastructure: VPCs, EKS/ECS, IAM, networking (Transit Gateway, Direct Connect, PrivateLink), and data services (RDS, S3, ElastiCache).\n\nOwn the reliability posture of cloud workloads - define SLOs, error budgets, and runbooks; lead incident response and durable root cause remediation.\n\nBuild and maintain infrastructure-as-code using Terraform and GitOps pipelines; eliminate manual provisioning entirely.\n\nDesign and implement multi-account AWS organization strategies (AWS Organizations, Control Tower, SCPs) for security and cost governance.\n\nInstrument cloud infrastructure with comprehensive observability - metrics, tracing, alerting, and cost visibility using tools like Prometheus, Grafana, Datadog, or CloudWatch.\n\nDrive automation for provisioning, scaling, patching, and lifecycle management to eliminate toil.\n\nPartner with security, networking, and platform teams on cloud security architecture, identity federation, and network reliability.\n\nEvaluate and adopt AWS-native and third-party tooling to improve developer experience and infrastructure efficiency.\n\nQualifications\n8+ years of experience in cloud infrastructure, SRE, or DevOps roles with a strong software engineering foundation.\n\nDeep, hands-on AWS expertise - able to architect complex multi-region, multi-account environments from first principles. AWS Solutions Architect Professional or equivalent practical depth required.\n\nExpert-level Terraform; experience with Atlantis or similar GitOps workflows for infrastructure.\n\nStrong programming skills in Python, Go, or similar - comfortable writing production-grade automation, not just scripts.\n\nProven experience with Kubernetes (EKS preferred) - cluster lifecycle, networking (CNI, service mesh), and workload reliability.\n\nDeep understanding of AWS networking: VPC design, peering, Transit Gateway, Direct Connect, security groups, and NACLs.\n\nExperience with AWS IAM at scale - role design, permission boundaries, OIDC federation, and least-privilege enforcement.\n\nHands-on experience with AI coding tools and deploying AI-assisted automation for triage, incident response, or operational workflows.\n\nStrong incident command skills - you've owned production outages end-to-end and written the postmortems.\n\nPreferred Qualifications\nExperience with AWS cost optimization at scale (Savings Plans, Reserved Instances, Spot orchestration).\n\nFamiliarity with compliance frameworks (SOC 2, ISO 27001) in a cloud context.\n\nExperience in GPU/ML infrastructure or high-performance compute workloads on AWS.\n\nProven track record of running on-call rotations, defining SLOs, and driving operational maturity in a fast-moving environment.\n\nExperience supporting highly technical engineering populations where uptime and speed both matter.\n\nWhy Join Cerebras\nPeople who are serious about software make their own hardware.
