About The Position

The Company NorthMark Compute & Cloud (NMC²) is backed by dedicated leadership and investment, with a clear mission as it operates at the bleeding edge of technology. Its goal is to scale and enhance the high-performance computing (HPC) and cloud infrastructure that supports its clients’ research, production, and delivery, enabling breakthroughs that shape the industries of tomorrow. Its engineers build critical infrastructure to eliminate friction in scientific research, simulations, analysis, and decision-making, accelerating discovery and driving faster innovation. NMC² is seeking a Solutions Architect to serve our most strategic HPC and cloud customers. You will be a trusted technical advisor, helping clients design, deploy, and scale compute-intensive workloads — from large-scale AI/ML training and inference to advanced scientific simulations and data-driven research. You will sit at the intersection of engineering, sales, and product — acting as the voice of the customer internally and the face of NMC²’s technical capability externally. This is a high-impact role for someone who thrives on solving hard problems and building lasting partnerships.
