At IT Labs, we are looking for a hands-on Deployment Engineer to support one of the most exciting companies in the AI and engineering space.
Our client (based in Singapore) is building a next-generation platform that combines AI, simulation, and high-performance computing to help engineers design everything from aircraft and cars to semiconductors and energy systems faster and more intelligently.

The company was founded by leaders from Formula 1 and advanced AI, has raised significant funding, and works with some of the world’s most innovative organizations in Aerospace, Automotive, Energy, Manufacturing, and Semiconductors.
In this role, you will work directly with customer engineering teams to deploy and support Kubernetes-based environments across AWS, Azure, and on-premise infrastructure. This is a highly technical, customer-facing role focused on troubleshooting, deployment, and solving complex infrastructure challenges.
The role is best suited for someone who enjoys working in fast-moving environments, learning quickly, and taking ownership with limited onboarding.
