The Opportunity - The Cloud Infrastructure team builds and operates our Kubernetes-based, multi-cloud AI platform across AWS, Azure, and GCP.
  • As a Cloud Infrastructure Engineer, you’ll work on scaling, securing, and optimizing the platform that powers massive multi-tenant clusters running Big Data and AI/ML workloads.

  • Develop and maintain automation using Infrastructure-as-Code tools (Terraform, Pulumi, Crossplane).
  • Implement and enhance GitOps workflows using Argo CD or Flux.
  • Set up and maintain observability systems (Prometheus, Grafana, OpenTelemetry) to monitor workloads and clusters.
  • Collaborate with the team to design, test, and roll out improvements to scaling and reliability.
  • Troubleshoot incidents and participate in on-call rotations to ensure platform uptime.
  • Contribute to security best practices, including RBAC, tenant isolation, and cloud identity management.
What You Bring
  • 3–5 years of experience building or operating cloud-native infrastructure in production.
  • Hands-on experience with at least one major cloud provider (AWS, Azure, or GCP) and (preferably) exposure to multi-cloud environments.
  • Solid understanding of Kubernetes concepts and operational experience with production clusters.
  • Proficiency with Infrastructure-as-Code tools (Terraform, Pulumi, or similar).
  • Experience with GitOps workflows and tools like Argo CD, Flux, or Argo Workflows.
  • Familiarity with monitoring, logging, and tracing for distributed systems.
  • Scripting or programming skills in Python, Go, or Bash.
  • Strong problem-solving skills and a collaborative approach.
