Clockwork.io – Software Driven Fabrics to increase GPU cluster utilization
Clockwork Systems was founded by Stanford researchers and veteran systems engineers who share a vision for redefining the foundations of distributed computing. As AI workloads grow increasingly complex, traditional infrastructure struggles to meet the demands of performance, reliability, and precise coordination. Clockwork is pioneering a software-driven approach to AI fabrics by delivering cross-stack observability to catch and quickly resolve problems, workload fault tolerance to keep jobs running through failures, and performance acceleration that dynamically routes and paces traffic to avoid congestion.
We are looking for a Lead Software Engineer to drive the architecture, development, and delivery of critical platform and infrastructure systems at Clockwork.
In this role, you will lead technical direction across complex initiatives spanning distributed systems, cloud infrastructure, networking, operating systems, databases, and full stack platforms. You’ll work closely with a highly technical team to design and scale production-grade systems that power modern AI and HPC environments.
This is an opportunity for a hands-on technical leader who enjoys solving hard engineering problems, mentoring strong engineers, and building systems from the ground up in a fast-moving startup environment.
