The hardware resources are there. I for example have access to clusters with hundreds of A100.

The engineering resources are not though. The work has to either be done by the Phds themselves or by student workers. Phds don't have enough time and student workers have very little time and no expertise.

There are some limited SWE positions in support roles, but as you can expect the pay is not competitive.

For some reason even in academic departments where we can build billion euro clusters the people are still paid utter crap.
