AI Summary
Build and maintain the software and processes for a large fleet of GPU servers, focusing on automation for provisioning, health monitoring, and recovery. Key responsibilities include developing Python systems for server lifecycle management and implementing OS-level security. Requires 3+ years of experience managing bare-metal and cloud server fleets at scale with strong Python and Linux systems knowledge.
Key Highlights
Manage and automate the lifecycle of a large GPU server fleet.
Develop Python systems for provisioning, health monitoring, and recovery.
Implement OS-level security and tune Linux systems for AI workloads.
Key Responsibilities
Build and maintain Python fleet tracking system that manages the full lifecycle of servers including contracting and procurement, target use, pricing, availability, health, RMAs, etc
Build server management tooling that automates provisioning, health checks, GPU diagnostics, recovery and alerting
Create and maintain metrics, dashboards, and alerting for hardware health across the fleet (GPU errors, disk failures, network issues, thermals)
Leverage AI to an extreme level to build tools and automate alerting and recovery

Job Description
fal is the generative media ecosystem powering the next generation of AI products. We build the infrastructure, tools, and model access that teams need to move from idea to production, and do it at scale without compromise. For developers and enterprises, fal is the foundation that makes generative media not just possible, but practical: a unified platform where high-performance inference, orchestration, and observability come together to unlock new categories of AI-native products.
As generative media reshapes industries across a market projected to grow by hundreds of billions over the next decade, fal is becoming the ecosystem that ambitious teams build on.
You are a hands-on engineer who builds the software and processes that keep a large fleet of GPU servers healthy and productive. You write systems and tooling for managing 1000s of servers including provisioning, health monitoring, error detection, and recovery — and when something breaks that automation can’t fix, you drive resolution with partners.
