MBR Partners is hiring a skilled DevOps and IT Infrastructure Engineer to join a high-growth tech environment in the heart of Dubai. This is a rare chance to build the software engine behind the GCC region’s first networking equipment factory and power next-gen AI hardware innovation.
The Role: Building AI Infrastructure
You will be the architect behind the scenes, ensuring the on-premise infrastructure for AI and enterprise workloads is robust, secure, and fully automated. This role isn’t just about maintenance; it’s about creating “infrastructure as a product.” You will be managing Kubernetes clusters designed for training and inference, optimizing GPU performance, and ensuring developers have seamless access to CI/CD pipelines.
The goal is high-velocity development. You’ll be reducing “toil,” managing network architecture, and creating a environment where a test stack can be spun up from Git in under 30 minutes.
Core Responsibilities
- Infrastructure as Code: Write reusable Terraform, Ansible, and Helm modules to ensure all environment changes are audited and repeatable.
- AI Cluster Management: Operate multi-tenant GPU clusters using NVIDIA plugins and manage workload isolation to keep AI training queues moving.
- System Administration: Maintain core services including identity management (Keycloak/LDAP), secrets (Vault), and high-bandwidth storage for AI pipelines.
- CI/CD Optimization: Partner with ML engineers to build fast, deterministic pipelines that use cached runners on GPU/CPU nodes.
- Networking: Leverage your knowledge of L2/L3, BGP, EVPN, and load balancing to keep data moving efficiently through the enterprise infrastructure.
Eligibility & Requirements
To succeed here, you need a strong technical foundation and the ability to work in a fast-paced environment.
- Experience: Minimum of 5+ years in DevOps, SRE, or Platform Engineering roles with direct experience in on-premise environments.
- Technical Skills: Deep expertise in Kubernetes, Infrastructure as Code (Terraform/Ansible), and Linux administration.
- Networking: Solid grasp of networking fundamentals, including VLANs, VXLANs, and TLS.
- Observability: Ability to implement monitoring stacks like Prometheus and Grafana.
- Bonus Skills: Hands-on experience with GPU operations (NVIDIA DCGM, MIG), Ceph storage, or building Zero-Trust network environments.
