About the role
- With expertise spanning machine learning, bioinformatics, data science, engineering, and drug development, our multidisciplinary team in Toronto and Cambridge, MA is revolutionizing how new medicines are created.
- Ideal Candidate You are someone who enjoys keeping the infrastructure running smoothly so that scientists can focus on their research.
- You are comfortable working across cloud platforms, CI/CD systems, containers, and GPUs - and you take pride in making these systems reliable and easy for others to use.
Responsibilities
- Maintain and improve cloud infrastructure (GCP) using Infrastructure-as-Code tools (Terraform).
- Manage IAM, RBAC, and permission policies across cloud environments.
- Own and evolve CI/CD pipelines (CircleCI, GitHub Actions) and ensure best practices are followed across the engineering and ML teams.
- Administer and support workflow orchestration platforms (e.g., Seqera/Nextflow, Argo, Kubeflow).
- Build and maintain containerized environments (Docker) and manage Kubernetes clusters.
- Manage GPU resources - provisioning, scheduling, and debugging hardware and driver issues.
- Write and maintain Python tooling, scripts, and integrations that support ML infrastructure.
- Deep Genomics encourages applications from all backgrounds who seek the opportunity to build the world's leading AI-driven genetic medicine company.
Requirements
- 4+ years of experience operating production infrastructure.
- Extensive Hands-on experience with Kubernetes and containerization (Docker).
- Experience managing GPU compute (provisioning, debugging, driver management).
- Familiarity with Python package and environment management (e.g., pip, conda, pixi).
Nice to have
- Understanding of ML frameworks (e.g., PyTorch, PyTorch Lightning), ML workflows (training, inference, evaluation), and the model lifecycle.
- Familiarity with MLOps tooling (e.g., W&B, Ray, VertexAI) and distributed compute patterns
- (e.g., DDP, realtime/batch inference, multi-node training).
- Familiarity with Kubernetes CRDs and batch/gang schedulers (e.g., Volcano, Kueue).
- Experience working with large-scale datasets (storage, versioning, efficient access patterns).
- Experience working directly with scientists and researchers in an interdisciplinary setting.
- Familiarity with data compliance and governance frameworks (e.g., HIPAA, SOC 2).
- Previous startup experience.
