Senior Systems Engineer (HPC/Workstations)
Computer Community · Nungambakkam, Chennai · On-site · Full-time

ABOUT US
Computer Community is a custom PC builder in Nungambakkam, Chennai, and an NVIDIA Authorised System Integrator.
We've built our name on doing this properly: real component-level knowledge, honest recommendations, and builds that hold up. Everything happens in-house, from spec'ing and assembly to diagnostics, warranty and after-sales service.
Our customers range from students building a first gaming rig to media and production houses, and we supply to the Government of Tamil Nadu.
We're now taking that same standard into workstations, servers and AI infrastructure. Multi-GPU compute builds, Linux deployments, NAS and storage systems, and on-premise AI machines for studios, labs and businesses across Chennai. This is a deliberate expansion, not a side experiment, and we're hiring the engineer who will own it from the ground up.
THE ROLE
You'll be the technical authority on every workstation, server and AI system we ship. You'll sit with the client to understand what they actually need, spec the system, build it, and deploy it on-site.
A lot of our enquiries now are for machines that do several jobs at once: running AI models locally, acting as shared storage, and working as a general server. Designing those properly, and making them stable enough to leave at a client's premises, is a big part of this job.
There's no existing playbook here. You'll set our build standards, decide how we deploy, and shape how we support what we ship. As the division grows, it grows on what you put in place.
WHAT YOU'LL DO
• Architect and build multi-GPU workstations and rack/tower servers
• Deploy and configure Linux environments (RHEL, AlmaLinux, Ubuntu, CentOS)
• Manage GPU driver stacks and the CUDA and container layer beneath AI workloads
• Set up on-premise AI systems for local model inference and remote team access
• Design and deploy NAS and shared storage, including ZFS/RAID and network config
• Configure RAID controllers, BIOS, BMC/IPMI and firmware across server platforms
• Handle virtualisation where a single system needs to serve multiple roles
• Install on-site at client premises and provide ongoing technical support
• Set assembly standards for the workshop and guide our build team on server work
• Translate client workloads (rendering, simulation, ML training, virtualisation) into the right hardware
WHAT WE'RE LOOKING FOR
• 2+ years in systems engineering, HPC or server infrastructure
• Strong Linux system administration.
• Hands-on with NVIDIA GPU compute: drivers, CUDA toolkit, container runtime
• Storage design experience with ZFS, mdadm or hardware RAID, plus NFS/SMB
• Comfortable with server hardware.
• Able to talk to clients directly and turn their workload into a build
• Based in Chennai or willing to relocate
NICE TO HAVE
• RHCSA or RHCE certification
• Experience with local LLM inference (Ollama, vLLM, llama.cpp) or ComfyUI/Stable Diffusion
• Proxmox, TrueNAS or Unraid
• Networking beyond the basics: VLANs, 10GbE, VPN for remote client access
• Tamil and English fluency for client-facing work
WHY THIS ROLE
You won't be maintaining someone else's stack. You'll be building a division, with an NVIDIA-authorised builder behind you and clients already asking for the work.
