The listing, marked up
Nothing in the wording of this listing tripped a check. The scores above still judge how complete and coherent it is.
I run the US West Specialist Field Engineering team at CoreWeave. We work hand in hand with the labs pushing the boundaries of AI, on some of the largest GPU Kubernetes clusters in the world. Specialist Field Engineers own the technical side of the customer relationship: architecture, proofs of concept, and the hard debugging nobody else can do. What you learn in the field feeds straight back into the product.
Must live near one of the cities above. This is a hybrid role, and we do not offer relocation.
Must have deep experience in these areas. It's in the title. The work we do goes exceptionally deep, and we need people who are already experts in one of these areas.

* Security [ https://grnh.se/jxbek1o66us ] You've secured large-scale infrastructure and can trace an identity or isolation problem from the IdP, through the kernel and network, into Kubernetes.
