Job description

Summary

Cerebras Systems builds advanced AI computing hardware and infrastructure for high-speed model training and inference. The company is seeking an AI Data Center Infrastructure Engineer to translate cluster architectures into deployment-ready designs, adapt them to site constraints, and automate infrastructure design and validation workflows.

Responsibilities

  • 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

Skills

  • 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 analytical skills and close attention to detail
  • The ability to turn incomplete or changing requirements into clear, actionable designs
  • Clear written and verbal communication skills, including the ability to collaborate across several engineering disciplines
  • Designing or deploying high-density AI, HPC, or large-scale compute clusters
  • Working with high-speed Ethernet or InfiniBand networks, optical transceivers, fiber, DACs, or structured cabling
  • Using infrastructure documentation, diagramming, DCIM, CAD, or source-controlled design tools
  • Developing automated validation, configuration-generation, or infrastructure-modeling tools
  • Supporting data center deployment, commissioning, hardware integration, or deployment-related incident analysis
  • Working with contract manufacturers, colocation providers, installation partners, or supply-chain teams
