Job Details
Job Description
Base-2 Solutions is seeking a High Compute Engineer who will lead the design, optimization, and integration of GPU-centric high-performance compute environments. Manage existing NVIDIA A100 and DGX-1 systems while designing scalable architectures to incorporate emerging GPU hardware as mission demands evolve. This role is critical to advanced compute initiatives, where performance, stability, and future-readiness drive every architectural decision. The candidate will work cross-functionally with data scientists, AI/ML developers, cybersecurity experts, and infrastructure teams to create a robust, secure, and performant GPU compute ecosystem.

The candidate will work cross-functionally with data scientists, AI/ML developers, cybersecurity experts, and infrastructure teams to create a robust, secure, and performant GPU compute ecosystem.
Required Skills
- Proficiency with NVIDIA technologies: A100, DGX-1, CUDA, cuDNN, NCCL.
- Strong background in Linux (RHEL/CentOS/Ubuntu), kernel tuning, and HPC stack deployment.
- Experience with containerized GPU workloads using Docker, Kubernetes, and NVIDIA GPU Operator.
- Familiarity with distributed compute frameworks such as SLURM, Kubernetes, or Ray.
- Strong scripting skills in Bash, Python, or similar languages.
- Proven ability to plan and execute large-scale system upgrades and migrations.
Qualifications
- Bachelor's or higher degree in Computer Engineering, Computer Science, or a related field with at least 12 years of related technical experience.
- Additional years of experience may be considered in lieu of a degree.
- 5 years of experience supporting GPU compute environments in mission-critical or enterprise settings.
- Meets DoD 8570.11 IAT Level II certification requirements (Security CE, CCNA-Security, GICSP, GSEC, or SSCP with an appropriate Computing Environment certification).
- An IAT Level III certification (CASP , CCNP Security, CISA, CISSP, GCED, GCIH, CCSP) is also acceptable.
- Active TS/SCI clearance with Polygraph required, or active TS/SCI and willingness to obtain and maintain a Poly.
Capabilities
- Manage, optimize, and monitor existing high-performance GPU systems including NVIDIA A100s and DGX-1 platforms.
- Architect integration plans for scaling GPU compute infrastructure, including newer platforms such as H100, Grace Hopper, and AMD Instinct.
- Collaborate with data science teams to fine-tune GPU workloads for AI/ML pipelines.
- Design and implement high-speed networking (InfiniBand/RDMA) and storage solutions optimized for GPU data flow.
- Develop automation workflows using infrastructure-as-code (IaC) tools such as Ansible, Terraform, or SaltStack.
- Ensure system security, compliance, and patch management in alignment with NIST, RMF, or agency-specific controls.
- Analyze compute performance metrics and provide strategic recommendations for system enhancements.
- Maintain documentation on system architectures, configurations, and operational procedures.
Desired Skills
- Experience with hybrid cloud GPU environments (AWS, Google Cloud Platform, or Azure with NVIDIA support).
- Familiarity with AI/ML tooling such as PyTorch, TensorFlow, ONNX, and RAPIDS.
- Experience integrating GPUs with storage systems such as Lustre, BeeGFS, or Ceph.
- Exposure to hardware acceleration platforms such as FPGA or custom ASIC.
