Role Scope and Impact:
We are hiring a Forward-Deployed Engineer focused on lab, runbook automation, and Professional Services work. You will deploy, validate, and stabilize customer AI fabric environments at customer sites and from our office. You will build the lab environments that reproduce and resolve field issues, write the runbooks that drive our AI monitoring agent, and deliver Professional Services engagements from scoping through handoff. You will work closely with engineering, product, and sales, and build fabric-level triage skills alongside our switching specialists.
This role delivers results in five areas:
\nForward-deployed engineering. Hands-on work with customers through deployment, bring-up, and escalations, shortening the time to a stable production fabric.
\nProfessional Services. Scoped, repeatable services, including deployment, integration, health checks, upgrades, and User Acceptance Testing (UAT), delivered to a consistent standard as a core team function.

\nEnablement. Technical guidance and documentation for field and sales teams.
\nResponsibilities:
\nForward-Deployed Engineering
\nWork directly with customer platform and operations teams through deployment, bring-up, cutover, and upgrades.
\nDrive customer escalations to a verified fix with engineering and our switching specialists. Isolate issues across host, Linux, container, virtualization, cloud, and security layers, and separate fabric problems from host and workload problems.
\nIntegrate Upscale systems with customer cloud, automation, observability, and security tooling.
\nReport repeat field issues and product recommendations to product and engineering.
\nProfessional Services:
\nScope and deliver Professional Services engagements: deployment, integration, automation, health checks, performance validation, and upgrades.
\nPlan and run User Acceptance Testing (UAT) with customers: test plans, execution, issue tracking, and sign-off.
\nProduce engagement deliverables: design and deployment documents, runbooks, and as-built documentation.
\nBuild out the team's Professional Services practice with team and sales leadership: service offerings, delivery standards, templates, and playbooks.
\nRun knowledge transfer and training for customer teams at handoff.
\nLab:
\nDesign and build customer-representative lab topologies for issue reproduction, fix validation, and proofs of concept.
\nRun pre-deployment validation and UAT dry runs before customer sign-off.
\nAutomate test setup, test runs, and data capture with Python, Bash, and Terraform.

We value ownership, technical rigor, and speed, and we offer the opportunity to work on foundational problems with immediate, real-world impact.
\nIf you’re looking to do high-impact work, move fast, and help define the infrastructure behind the future of AI—Upscale is where you can produce meaningful work at the frontier—and operate at a high standard.
About the Role
\nWe are building a world-class SerDes engineering organization focused on next-generation, ultra-high-speed connectivity for AI data centers and high-performance computing.
\nWe are seeking an exceptional technical leader to define and drive the architecture and implementation of next-generation SerDes receiver front ends and high-speed analog-to-digital converters (ADCs), targeting ultra-high sampling rates in advanced process technologies at 5nm and below.
\nThis is a high-impact technical leadership role for an engineer who combines deep expertise in high-speed analog and mixed-signal circuit design with strong architectural judgment and a proven ability to turn ambitious performance targets into silicon.
\nAs a key technical leader, you will shape receiver architecture, drive critical circuit and system-level trade-offs, and work across analog design, DSP, clocking, digital implementation, and silicon validation to deliver industry-leading receiver performance. You will have the opportunity to influence the technical direction of our SerDes platform and establish the foundation for future generations of high-speed connectivity.

\nOperate and maintain the software and hardware engineering lab environments at Upscale, a fast-moving AI hardware and infrastructure company. This is a hands-on role: day-to-day work includes provisioning and racking servers and switches, keeping systems and networks healthy, and following the standards and automation already set up by senior engineering staff. You're the person engineers and lab owners rely on to get equipment up and running, keep things tracked, and keep projects moving. There's room to grow into broader systems and network ownership as the lab and team scale. This role suits someone comfortable wearing multiple hats in a fast-paced environment, rather than operating in a narrow, siloed function.
\nResponsibilities:
\nHands-on provisioning and operations: provision and configure servers, switches, and storage for lab use; receive, commission, and physically deploy lab hardware; take ownership of routine maintenance and troubleshooting yourself; rack and stack hardware as part of routine setup.
\nDay-to-day systems and network administration: install, configure, and maintain physical and virtual servers and lab network equipment, following established configuration standards; working knowledge of basic networking (switches, TCP/IP, DNS/DHCP); administer Linux/Windows systems day to day (OS installs, patching, routine config); operate virtualization platforms (e.g., VMware, Proxmox) for software and hardware development environments; run existing automation tools (e.g., Ansible playbooks) built by senior staff; monitor system and network health using established tools and respond to alerts.
\nLab owner support and coordination: work with lab owners and engineers across both software and hardware teams to understand what they need set up and when; keep them updated on status; flag upcoming capacity or equipment needs to leadership rather than independently planning long term architecture.
\nProject and request management: triage and prioritize incoming requests; keep status updated; coordinate with the ASIC team to keep work moving.
Requirements:
\n7 to 10 years of hands on experience provisioning and operating servers, networking equipment, and lab or data center infrastructure, ideally supporting a software and hardware development engineering environment.
\nWorking knowledge of basic networking (switches, protocols) and Linux/Windows server administration.
\nFamiliarity with virtualization platforms (VMware, Proxmox, or similar).
\nAble to run established automation tools (e.g., Ansible) without needing to build or architect them.
\nComfortable with physical hardware installation as everyday work, including rack and stack.
\nExperience tracking inventory and assets and helping manage procurement.
\nGood organizational skills for juggling multiple requests.
\nWilling and able to travel to or work on site at colocation or data center facilities as needed.
Preferred Qualifications:
\nExperience in a networking, server, or infrastructure company.
\nBackground at an AI hardware or infrastructure startup, a semiconductor or networking hardware company with hands-on bring-up or validation labs, or a hyperscale data center operator, ideally having worn multiple hats rather than a narrow, single-function role.
\nFamiliarity with monitoring and provisioning tools.
\nPrior experience in a hardware or engineering lab environments.
\nPrior hands-on experience with infrastructure automation and configuration-management tools is a plus.
\nWhere you fall within that range depends on your experience, skills, and impact—we benchmark against internal levels to keep things fair and consistent.
