Full Job Description
đź“‹ Description
- • We're a small, fast-moving AI infrastructure company building an open-source, GitOps-native distributed operating system on top of Kubernetes — purpose-built to handle demanding AI workloads including inference pipelines, distributed training, storage orchestration, and GPU scheduling.
- • Our platform enables companies to go from bare metal to a fully operational, production-grade AI cluster in days.
- • As a Platform Engineer, you'll work shoulder-to-shoulder with the founding team to design and evolve the core platform: abstracting away Kubernetes complexity without sacrificing its power.
- • This is a high-ownership, high-impact role at a company where your architectural decisions will directly shape the product and the engineering culture.
- • Visa sponsorship is available.
- • Build and extend core platform features in Go, including custom Kubernetes operators and controllers.
- • Design and implement GitOps workflows with ArgoCD to make continuous deployment seamless and automatic.
- • Develop infrastructure-as-code patterns using Terraform and Helm to provision and manage clusters at scale.
- • Work on distributed storage solutions using Ceph and WEKA for high-performance, scalable cluster storage.
- • Build observability and monitoring systems with Prometheus and Grafana to surface cluster health and performance.
- • Optimize container networking with Cilium for network security and deep observability.
- • Design and implement federated Kubernetes architectures for multi-cluster management.
- • Build automation tooling that reduces operational overhead for developers running production workloads.
- • Contribute to open-source components and help establish platform architecture patterns as an early team member.
🎯 Requirements
- • 2+ years of software development experience (strong foundational talent is prioritized over years of specific experience).
- • Proficiency in Go with hands-on experience building developer tools or infrastructure products.
- • Solid Kubernetes experience — operators, CRDs, controllers, and/or etcd.
- • Experience with distributed storage solutions such as Ceph and/or WEKA.
🏖️ Benefits
- • Salary: $150,000 – $200,000 USD annually.
- • Early-stage equity.
- • Visa sponsorship available.
