Employer immigration record

from this employer's Department of Labor filings

Green-card filing pattern in this occupation

Context, not a finding about this posting: of this employer's 3 green-card filings in this occupation, 100% were for a worker who already held the job.

Files H-1B transfers

22 transfer filings in the last year, covering 22 workers. Median labor-condition decision: 7 days. An employer that already files transfers is one that can take over an existing H-1B.

Sourced from Department of Labor LCA, PERM and prevailing-wage disclosure data. Employer matching is by name, so figures may be split across an employer's legal entities. Absence of a filing means none appears in our copy of the data, not that none exists.

About the role

  • You will work on CI/CD systems, Kubernetes, deployment automation, cloud and on-premises infrastructure, developer environments, artifact management, and observability.
  • You will help make the systems engineers depend on reliable, scalable, and easy to operate.
  • This is an engineering-focused infrastructure role rather than a primarily ticket-driven operations position.

Responsibilities

  • Design, build, and maintain CI/CD systems supporting build, test, integration, qualification, and release workflows.
  • Build and operate Kubernetes-based platforms and services used by engineering teams across Cerebras.
  • Develop deployment systems, internal tools, and self-service workflows that make infrastructure changes repeatable, reviewable, and safe.
  • Perform root-cause analysis and implement lasting fixes rather than relying on repeated manual intervention.
  • Partner with software, IT, security, networking, release, and developer-productivity teams to deliver scalable infrastructure solutions.

Requirements

  • 5+ years of professional experience in platform engineering, DevOps, infrastructure engineering, site reliability engineering, or software engineering.
  • Experience deploying and operating services using Kubernetes and containerized environments.
  • Experience with a major cloud platform, preferably AWS, and programmatic infrastructure provisioning.
  • Strong understanding of Linux or Unix operating-system fundamentals.
  • Proficiency in Python, Shell, or another language used to build infrastructure automation and operational tooling.
  • Experience with monitoring, logging, alerting, dashboards, and incident investigation.
  • Strong debugging and problem-solving skills, including the ability to investigate issues spanning applications, infrastructure, networking, and operating systems.
  • Experience with infrastructure-as-code tools, specifically Terraform.
  • Experience with Kubernetes controllers, operators, custom resources, Helm, Argo CD, or similar platform technologies.
  • Hands-on experience building or maintaining CI/CD pipelines and automated software-delivery workflows.
  • Understanding of networking concepts such as DNS, routing, load balancing, proxies, ports, TLS, and service connectivity.
  • Experience managing artifact repositories, package registries, build caches, or software-distribution infrastructure.
  • Familiarity with build systems, dependency management, and reproducible-build practices.
  • Experience supporting hybrid environments spanning cloud infrastructure, on-premises systems, and specialized hardware.

Skills

  • Cerebras works with the leading model labs, global enterprises, and cutting-edge AI-native startups.
