As Manager of Simulation Infrastructure, you will lead a team of full-stack and infrastructure engineers responsible for the deployment, scaling, and operational health of web applications, databases, and cloud infrastructure supporting massive parallel batch simulation runs. You will drive the strategic roadmap, guide architectural design of secure, high-throughput APIs, and oversee frontend-to-backend systems powering scenario management, run orchestration, and results analytics.
Key responsibilities include:
- Recruit, manage, and mentor a team of high-performing full-stack and infrastructure engineers, focusing on career growth and team health
- Own the strategic roadmap and execution for web applications and tools supporting simulation workflows (scenario management, run orchestration, tagging/taxonomy, results analytics)
- Guide architectural decisions for scalable cloud infrastructure and container orchestration designed for massive parallel batch simulation runs
- Oversee design and maintenance of relational databases and secure, high-throughput APIs connecting frontend portals to simulation systems
- Drive engineering best practices, reliability, observability, and cost-efficiency across the platform
- Partner closely with the Simulation Engine team and stakeholders to align technical capabilities with business needs, define integration interfaces, and manage multi-quarter projects
Required qualifications:
- B.S., M.S., or Ph.D. in Computer Science, Software Engineering, or related technical field (or equivalent experience)
- 5+ years of software engineering experience spanning backend services and cloud infrastructure, including at least 2+ years of direct people management
- Demonstrated experience guiding teams operating production workloads on container orchestration platforms (e.g., Kubernetes) at scale, with strong relational database ecosystems (e.g., PostgreSQL)
- Solid foundational background building secure, high-throughput APIs and web services (Go, Python, Node.js) with modern frontends such as React
- Proven experience recruiting, building, and mentoring full-stack or infrastructure engineering teams
Desirable qualifications:
- Experience managing teams supporting large-scale batch or parallel compute workloads
- Track record of successfully managing cloud cost optimization and observability initiatives
- Experience overseeing teams utilizing infrastructure-as-code and mature CI/CD pipelines
- Experience overseeing development of internal developer tools or self-service platforms for technical users
- Background in simulation, autonomous vehicles, or robotics
