Why we read it this way (8)
This is a Solutions Architect / pre-sales technical advisory role rather than a pure software development or pure systems administration role; 15-1299 (Computer Occupations, All Other) is the best fit, with 15-1252 (Software Developers) as a plausible runner-up given the depth of hands-on infrastructure engineering expected.
The degree requirement lists BS/MS/PhD but explicitly accepts 'equivalent experience,' so no minimum degree is hard-gated.
InfiniBand is listed alongside Ethernet and RDMA as examples of data center networking technologies under the required qualifications; all three are captured as alternatives on a single networking skill.
LLM training/fine-tuning/RAG, MLPerf/HPL benchmarking, OpenMPI, and NCCL all appear under the 'Ways To Stand Out From The Crowd' (preferred/nice-to-have) section.
Compensation is stated as $184,000–$287,500 base salary, plus equity and benefits, with no further breakdown by location provided in the posting.
Remote status set to true per caller declaration; no metro is inferred.
Ignored 1 non-technology phrase(s) as skills (responsibilities/concepts, not named tools): GPU cluster orchestration.
