HPC Solutions Architect

Job Description High-Performance Computing (HPC) Solutions Architect Position Overview We are seeking an experienced HPC Solutions Architect to lead the design and modernization of advanced computing environments supporting mission-critical development. In this role, you will serve as the technical authority for designing, building, and potentially implementing a next-generation High-Performance Computing cluster. You will translate customer goals and evolving CNO development needs into a secure, scalable technical architecture. The ideal candidate understands emerging HPC technologies, CI/CD pipelines, on-premises infrastructure, and the practical application of large language models (LLMs) within complex development environments. Key Responsibilities Design the architecture, configuration, and system loadout for a next-generation HPC cluster. Develop a technical roadmap and reusable patterns that enable teams to adopt LLM-based solutions where they provide clear mission value. Launch high-return pilot projects and create streamlined templates, shared resources, and repeatable implementation approaches. Preserve the flexibility required for organizations to manage on-premises infrastructure when security or mission requirements demand it. Architect end-to-end solutions for complex CNE services, including integration patterns connecting legacy systems with modern HPC environments. Ensure proposed solutions maintain required security controls while improving performance, scalability, reliability, and usability. Assess existing infrastructure and work with stakeholders to identify services operating on aging or end-of-life platforms. Document system dependencies, evaluate the continuing value of existing services, and develop modernization priorities based on end-of-life timelines, mission impact, cost efficiency, and user needs. Design modern workflows and development experiences that improve how CNE developers interact with their tools and environments. Incorporate CI/CD practices and emerging technologies into the broader platform strategy. Provide technical leadership throughout the design, build, integration, and potential implementation of the new environment. Help establish CNO as a premier environment for software development by creating a modern platform that attracts and retains exceptional technical talent. , Required Skills **YOE Requirement:** 8 yrs., B.S. in a technical discipline or 4 additional yrs. in place of B.S. Demonstrated expertise designing and building High-Performance Computing clusters. Strong knowledge of modern infrastructure architecture, system integration, and on-premises computing environments. Experience designing or supporting CI/CD pipelines and contemporary software-development workflows. Familiarity with LLM solutions, reusable platform patterns, and pilot-to-production adoption strategies. Ability to integrate legacy platforms with modern, scalable infrastructure. Experience conducting technical assessments and developing practical modernization roadmaps. Strong understanding of security controls in mission-critical computing environments. Ability to communicate complex architectural decisions to technical teams, stakeholders, and customers. , Desired Skills CNO development experience - understanding what developers actually need makes you a more effective infrastructure architect. Enclave experience - you understand what makes restricted environments different - the constraints, the processes, and how security controls impact architecture decisions. Cost optimization expertise - experience right-sizing cloud resources, building FinOps practices, or making defensible recommendations about when cloud implementations actually save money vs. when managed service costs spiral. , Additional Details Why Join Us? This is an opportunity to shape a next-generation development environment with meaningful mission impact. You will influence the technical direction of a major HPC initiative while improving the tools, workflows, and infrastructure developers rely on every day. , About KRYPTAURI, INC Kryptauri is a service-disabled veteran-owned small business with more than 30 years of experience supporting America’s cyber, intelligence, and national security missions.
