Shape Lambda’s visual identity, develop scalable design processes and systems, collaborate with technical and non-technical stakeholders, and manage multiple projects. The role requires strong expertise in typography, visual composition, UI/UX, motion, prototyping, brand development, and design tools, with an emphasis on rapid iteration and data-informed creative decisions.

Own and evolve the cloud foundation supporting AWS accounts, IAM, networking, DNS, governance, and Terraform execution. Build self-service infrastructure controls, automate compliance and access management, establish scalable platform patterns, and improve cost visibility. Partner with Security, GRC, IT, and engineering teams while operating reliable, observable systems and participating in on-call support.

Own Workday Payroll, Time Tracking, and Absence implementation, configuration, testing, integrations, compliance controls, and ongoing operations. Configure US and Canadian payroll, support international payroll providers, manage payroll integrations and reconciliations, partner with Payroll Operations and Accounting, oversee releases, develop documentation and training, and investigate payroll discrepancies. The role requires deep Workday expertise, global payroll knowledge, SOX controls experience, and hands-on implementation leadership.

Lead quarterly and annual tax provision under ASC 740, manage tax accounting close processes, oversee domestic and international filings, support tax credits and Section 174/382 analyses, forecast income and cash taxes, manage audits, and assist with transfer pricing and tax planning. Collaborate across the business to improve tax systems, processes, and reporting.

Lead the technical vision and development of Lambda’s managed Kubernetes platform for AI workloads on bare metal. Design GPU-aware orchestration, multi-tenant control planes, networking, storage, inference services, Slurm integration, self-healing automation, and resilient managed services. Provide cross-functional infrastructure leadership, mentor engineers, drive technical standards, lead chaos engineering, and collaborate with customers, NVIDIA, and open-source communities.

Build and operate distributed systems powering Lambda’s GPU cloud, including APIs, control planes, schedulers, workflows, and operational tooling. Own systems through architecture, implementation, deployment, observability, on-call, incident response, and continuous improvement. Improve reliability, performance, security, and scalability while collaborating across infrastructure, networking, storage, security, and SRE teams. Senior engineers lead complex domain work; Staff engineers shape cross-team architecture and mentor others.
