About The Role

We are looking for a passionate Infrastructure Engineer to join our growing team and help build and operate foundational services for a large-scale, AI-driven platform. Your work will support high reliability, scalability, and performance, enabling us to serve millions of users and meet enterprise-grade infrastructure needs.

What You’ll Do

Design and implement critical infrastructure services with well-defined Service Level Objectives (SLOs), robust runbooks, and actionable telemetry. Collaborate with cross-functional teams (research, product) to architect solutions, prototype infrastructure, assess performance, and scale new features. Tune service performance: optimize networking paths, implement smart caching and queuing strategies, and fine-tune CPU/memory/I/O to meet tight p95 and p99 latency targets. Evolve and improve CI/CD workflows, define “golden paths,” and build self-service tools to boost developer velocity and ensure platform safety. Support multiple deployment architectures, ensuring customers have reliable observability and upgrade mechanisms. Drive infrastructure-as-code (IaC) practices, primarily using Terraform, enforce GitOps workflows, reduce drift via reusable modules, and apply policy-as-code. Participate in on-call rotations and continually reduce operational toil by automating repetitive tasks and preventing recurring incidents.

What We’re Looking For

2–6 years

of experience in infrastructure engineering, site reliability engineering, or a closely related role.

Strong experience with infrastructure-as-code (Terraform) and GitOps practices. Deep understanding of monitoring, telemetry, and observability tools. Proven ability to optimize system performance (networking, caching, CPU/memory/I/O). Experience building or improving CI/CD pipelines and developer self-service platforms. Hands-on with deployment architectures and operational practices for scalable, production-level systems. Experience participating in on-call rotations and reducing operational burden through automation. Excellent collaboration skills, with the ability to partner with product and research teams. Demonstrated ownership, problem-solving mindset, and drive to build for scale.

Benefits & Perks

Competitive base salary + equity. Opportunity to build infrastructure for a highly scalable, AI-powered product. Work in a fast-growth environment that values reliability, automation, and developer experience.

If you're passionate about building scalable, high-performance infrastructure and want to work in a startup environment with significant impact, we’d love to hear from you. Seniority level
