About The Position

At Intelliforce, we support high-performance computing environments that have to work, scale, and hold up under pressure. In this role, you will help execute and sustain automated integration and system testing across a diverse range of HPC operating environments. Your work will strengthen system stability, performance, and reliability through testing, automation, documentation, and close coordination with stakeholders. This is a strong fit for an engineer who enjoys Linux-heavy environments, system integration, and solving technical problems that directly affect mission readiness. This role sits at the intersection of integration engineering, system reliability, and HPC performance. You will build scripts and playbooks that support system-level integration, run performance and failover testing, and help ensure complex environments stay stable across a range of conditions. The work is technical, varied, and operationally important, with a mix of automation, troubleshooting, virtualization, monitoring, and cross-team communication. At Intelliforce, your work is visible and your technical judgment matters. Because we support prime programs, our teams stay close to meaningful mission work with real momentum. Because we are a small business, leadership is accessible, communication is direct, and strong engineering gets noticed. Add in long-term stability, strong benefits, and a people-first culture, and this becomes more than another integration role. It is a chance to support HPC systems that teams depend on every day.
