About Radiant
Radiant is redefining how AI infrastructure is built.
We design and operate AI-native cloud platforms engineered for sovereignty, performance, and scale. Our infrastructure powers GPU-native workloads, multi-tenant control planes, and high-performance AI systems designed for the most demanding environments.
We are not building a generic cloud. We are building purpose-built AI infrastructure - from powered land, to compute, to software .
As we scale our platform and expand our engineering organisation, we are looking for leaders who can build strong teams, uphold high standards, and deliver reliably at pace.
About the role
As part of the Infrastructure Solutions team, the Cluster Architect is the tip of the spear leading Radiant’s new GPU deployments. The Cluster Architect contributes to the technical strategy, reference architecture, and governance standards underpinning Radiant’s GPU compute platform. They translate the high-level designs provided by the Customer Success organization into fully operational supercomputers. In conjunction with the Datacenter Engineering team, they lead the definition of the low-level design of upcoming high-performance computing (HPC) and artificial intelligence (AI) infrastructure deployments.
You must be a solution finder, able to adapt to evolving technology and customer requirements, and be ready to handle scale. The right person for this role will be technically focused and detail-oriented, and able to work with the broader team to successfully deliver some of the world’s largest supercomputers at a rapid pace with precision. It is critical to document each step of the process to enable effective communication with internal and external stakeholders.
About the Infrastructure Team
The Infrastructure Engineering team spearheads the strategy, roadmap, and delivery of critical HPC/AI infrastructure to the broader Technology and Customer organizations. Its mission is to deploy scalable, secure, and efficient infrastructure solutions tailored to the organization’s strategic needs. The team defines Radiant’s supercomputers’ reference architecture in line with the customer, software, and operational requirements of the company.
They work closely with third-party suppliers to provide and maintain the list of technologies that form part of Radiant’s portfolio of offerings.
They provide technical support throughout the procurement process with vendors to ensure the suitability of RFI/RFP responses.
They work in tandem with OEMs and infrastructure providers during the infrastructure rollout, and providing technical inputs to DC providers and OEMs
They work closely with the program management office, and align the hardware infrastructure rollout programs with the parallel datacenter fitout and software engineering programs.
They play an instrumental role in the successful deployments of cloud infrastructure, whilst ensuring optimal performance and reliability for high-demand computing environments. Once accepted, the infrastructure solutions are then handed over to the Infrastructure Operations team who manages the daily management of the infrastructure.
What you’ll do
•
Engage with key stakeholders (such as the Program Management Office, Data Center Engineering, Solutions Engineering and Infrastructure Operations teams) and translate inputs into Radiant’s reference architecture and low-level designs blueprints.
•
Remain abreast of technology advancements and roadmaps with key vendors in the space.
•
Lead the low-level design of high-density AI supercomputer systems (compute, interconnect, storage, management).
•
Participate in the Architecture Review Board involving key stakeholders to ensure collaboration and company alignment behind the designs being produced.
•
Evaluate tradeoffs between performance, power, cooling, serviceability, and cost throughout the procurement process.
•
In tandem with potential suppliers, drive the creation of detailed low-level designs, including (but not limited to):
•
Rack elevation diagrams and layouts
•
Data center floor plans and spatial planning
•
Power distribution and cooling architecture and related detailed specifications
•
Detailed Bill of Materials (BoM)
•
Port mapping documents.
•
Drive thorough technical evaluations and response accuracy from vendors during the RFx processes, ensuring designs are aligned with vendor capabilities and long-lead item constraints.
•
Play a hands-on and pro-active role in the manufacturing, burn-in, cabling, logical configuration, benchmarking, and logical implementation of new deployments to turn designs into production-grade systems.
•
Drive acceptance criteria with quality, reliability, safety, and performance goals in mind.
•
Work with the Software Engineering and Solutions Engineering teams to ensure the infrastructure supports AI workload requirements.
•
Engage with project management to define milestones, risks, resourcing, and deliverables associated with the delivery.
•
Produce accurate architecture diagrams, configuration documentation, runbooks, and operational guidance to facilitate the handover of the new deployments to the Infrastructure Operations team.
•
Establish delivery best practices and continuously improve the designs, processes, and documentation through the participation of “lessons learned” workshops.
Requirements
•
BSc in Computer Science, Electrical/Computer Engineering, Physics, Mathematics, or other related Engineering fields.
•
