Senior Systems Engineer - Commissioning and Characterisation

About the job Explore how a next-generation AI architecture behaves from rack scale to data centre scale. As a Senior Systems Engineer, you will investigate a novel AI computing architecture under demanding real-world workloads. You will work on problems where answers aren't readily known, turning curiosity into measurable evidence. You will design experiments, benchmark representative AI workloads and explore how hardware components and software interact at scale. When behaviour is unexpected, you will turn this into new measurements. Your work will help infrastructure engineers, architects and application specialists understand system behaviour, performance, scalability and reliability across the stack. You will also help develop tooling and automation to collect, analyse and visualise system metrics. You do not need to be an AI expert. You will need strong judgement, curiosity and a clear preference for evidence over opinion. You will love this role if you are someone who takes initiative, questions assumptions and enjoys working in areas where the answers are not yet known. The team and culture The System QA team is distributed across multiple locations. We work hard to stay connected and collaborate closely. Our daily team meetings feel more like a virtual coffee break than a formal status update with space to share ideas, ask questions, discuss discoveries and solve problems together. We value trust, autonomy and openness, and we understand that great engineers don't all follow the same career path.
