AI Datacenter Infra engineer

Cerebras Systems builds the world's largest AI chip, 56 times larger than GPUs. This architecture allows Cerebras to deliver industry-leading training and inference speeds; over 10 times faster than GPU-based hyperscale cloud inference services. This order of magnitude increase in speed is transforming the user experience of AI applications, unlocking real-time iteration and increasing intelligence via additional agentic computation. Cerebras works with the leading model labs, global enterprises, and cutting-edge AI-native startups. OpenAI recently announced a multi-year partnership with Cerebras, to deploy 750 megawatts of scale, transforming key workloads with ultra high-speed inference.

Cerebras is looking for an AI Data Center Infrastructure Engineer to turn cluster architecture into precise, deployment-ready infrastructure designs. You will own the critical step between a high-level system design and its implementation in a real data center. This includes defining rack layouts, equipment placement, bills of materials, power requirements, and port and cable mappings for compute, network, and storage systems. Every deployment presents different constraints. You will adapt reference designs to the available space, power, cooling, connectivity, hardware, and logistics while preserving system performance, reliability, scalability, and serviceability. You will also help automate this work. By building tools, validation checks, and reusable design frameworks, you will make each deployment faster, more accurate, and easier to operate at scale. This role is well suited to an engineer who enjoys detailed systems work, practical problem-solving, and collaborating across hardware, networking, software, and data center operations.

Translate cluster architectures and technical requirements into complete, deployment-ready infrastructure designs. Produce and maintain rack elevations, equipment layouts, bills of materials, power allocations, port maps, and cable maps. Adapt reference designs to site-specific constraints involving space, power, cooling, network connectivity, logistics, and hardware availability. Validate that compute, storage, networking, power, and cabling designs work together as an integrated system. Evaluate design trade-offs and recommend practical solutions that balance performance, reliability, scalability, cost, serviceability, and deployment schedule. Partner with systems, network, hardware, manufacturing, supply-chain, and data center operations teams throughout the design and deployment process. Participate in design and deployment-readiness reviews, identifying risks, inconsistencies, and missing requirements before installation begins. Support deployment teams by resolving physical integration issues and documenting approved design changes. Contribute to root-cause analysis when deployment or integration problems occur, and incorporate lessons learned into future designs. Develop scripts and tools that automate design generation, BOM creation, cable mapping, consistency checks, and other repeatable workflows. Improve templates, standards, documentation, and design processes so deployments become increasingly repeatable and scalable.

A bachelor’s or master’s degree in computer engineering, electrical engineering, computer science, or a related discipline—or equivalent practical experience. One or more years of relevant experience in infrastructure engineering, data center design, systems integration, hardware deployment, or a related field. Experience creating or working with rack elevations, equipment layouts, bills of materials, port maps, or cable maps. A practical understanding of server, storage, and networking hardware and how these systems are physically integrated. Familiarity with data center power, cooling, space, cabling, and serviceability constraints. Experience using Python, Bash, PowerShell, or another language to automate technical workflows. Strong
