Member of Technical Staff — CI / Infrastructure

About The Role

RadixArk is hiring a Member of Technical Staff — CI / Infrastructure to own the infrastructure that keeps SGLang moving. Our CI system runs 300+ GPU tests across NVIDIA, AMD, Intel, and Ascend hardware pools, gating every commit to one of the fastest-growing open-source LLM inference engines. When CI is green and fast, 100+ contributors ship with confidence.

When it isn't, the entire project stalls. That bottleneck is your problem to solve. You won't just maintain pipelines — you'll architect them.

You'll replace brittle static thresholds with regression-based detection, harden runners against supply-chain attacks from fork PRs, and cut cycle times so contributors get feedback in minutes, not hours. You'll work directly with core maintainers, hardware partners, and the open-source community to keep the system that gates every merge request trustworthy, fast, and secure. This is not a role for someone who wants to write CI YAML and walk away.

It's for an engineer who treats CI infrastructure the way we treat serving infrastructure — as a system worth designing well.

What You’Ll Do

Own CI reliability end-to-end — triage failures, distinguish real regressions from flaky tests and infra issues, keep main green Build regression-based CI — replace hardcoded static thresholds with automated baseline comparison (metrics pipeline, durable storage, detection logic) Harden runner infrastructure — ephemeral runners, container isolation, security hardening for fork PR execution Cut CI time — right-size eval suites, deduplicate server startups, separate PR smoke tests from nightly full runs Improve developer experience — faster feedback, clearer failure messages, workflow orchestration

Requirements

3+ years operating CI/CD at scale (GitHub Actions, Buildkite, Jenkins, GitLab CI, or similar) Deep Linux, Docker, GPU computing knowledge Self-hosted runner management experience Strong Bash and Python Security mindset — CI supply chain risks, fork PR attack vectors, runner hardening NVIDIA GPU drivers, CUDA, NCCL, InfiniBand/RDMA experience in CI contexts Familiarity with ML inference workloads (model loading, KV cache, quantization)

Nice To Have

Large open-source project CI experience (100+ contributors) AMD ROCm or Intel XPU CI pipelines What Success Looks Like Day 20 — Full CI landscape understood, daily triage taken over, top recurring flaky tests fixed, PR CI time reduced 30%+ Day 40 — Regression-based checks live on nightly CI, ephemeral runner prototype deployed, runner isolation in place Day 60 — Zero flaky tests. Main CI 100% green when no real regression exists About RadixArk RadixArk is an infrastructure-first company built by engineers who've shipped production AI systems, created SGLang (20K+ GitHub stars, the fastest open LLM serving engine), and developed Miles (our large-scale RL framework). We're on a mission to democratize frontier-level AI infrastructure by building world-class open systems for inference and training.

Our team has optimized kernels serving billions of tokens daily, designed distributed training systems coordinating 10,000+ GPUs, and contributed to infrastructure that powers leading AI companies and research labs. We're backed by well-known infrastructure investors and partner with Nvidia, Google, AWS, and frontier AI labs. Join us in building infrastructure that gives real leverage back to the AI community.
