HPC / Slurm Infrastructure Engineer

Contract | Remote | Part-time or Full-time | Rate DOE

I'm working with a technology company looking to improve and scale its engineering compute / HPC environment, with a particular focus on designing and deploying Slurm.

This isn't a requirement for someone who has simply administered an existing Slurm environment or submitted workloads to a cluster. They need someone who has been involved in the architecture, build and deployment of Slurm-based compute infrastructure and can take ownership of the environment from an early stage.

The requirement is still being shaped, so we're looking for someone senior enough to assess the existing infrastructure, recommend the appropriate architecture and then help lead the implementation.

Reasons to use Rodeo

I’m in my final year doing Economics and I don’t know whether to apply for grad schemes now or do a masters first. What do you think?

Honest answer — it depends on where you want to end up. A lot of top grad schemes (Big 4, civil service, banking) don’t need a masters. Let’s look at the ones you’d be competitive for now, and we can decide if a masters actually adds anything.

Also worth knowing: most autumn 2026 applications are open now. Timing matters more than you think.

Start with a chat, not a search bar

Grad scheme, placement, apprenticeship? Not sure what you want yet — that's fine. Your agent talks it through with you and turns "I have no idea" into a shortlist.

Experience within semiconductor / ASIC engineering environments would be particularly interesting.

Ideally, you'll have supported compute-intensive EDA workloads, such as:

  • RTL simulation and verification
  • Regression workloads
  • Synthesis
  • Physical design / implementation
  • Cadence, Synopsys or Siemens/Mentor toolchains

The key requirement, however, is genuine Slurm architecture and deployment experience rather than semiconductor experience alone.

If you've previously designed and built Slurm clusters rather than simply used or supported them, I'd be interested in speaking.

Please message me directly for more information.
