About the Job
Start your IT infrastructure career supporting the systems behind sophisticated AI engineering. As a Graduate IT Infrastructure Engineer, you will help keep Graphcore's engineering teams connected, productive and secure.
You will discover how enterprise infrastructure supports AI compute, from servers, storage, and networking to cloud platforms, automation, and monitoring. Your work will help improve the reliability, performance, and security of systems used across the business.
You will support infrastructure operations, investigate technical issues, and contribute to improvement projects. You will build practical skills in Linux, Windows, networking, cloud, scripting, and infrastructure as code.
You do not need to arrive as an authority. We are looking for graduates with strong fundamentals, curiosity, and the drive to learn by solving real problems.
The Team & Culture
The Infrastructure Solutions team designs, builds, and supports the IT environments that help Graphcore engineers work at scale. The team works across on-premise infrastructure, cloud platforms, networking, automation, and security.
Work happens through hands-on solving, planned projects, technical discussion, and steady ownership of well-scoped tasks. You will learn from expert engineers while taking ownership of useful work early.
Decisions are made through evidence, service impact, and practical trade-offs. Graduates are encouraged to ask questions, speak up, and suggest better ways of working.

- Understanding of networking fundamentals such as TCP/IP, DNS, routing, or firewalls
- Introductory scripting experience with Python, Bash, or PowerShell
- Analytical thinking, clear communication, and motivation to learn through practical problem solving
Benefits
