About the Role

Join an early-stage cloud infrastructure team building tools that simplify production Kubernetes and multi-cluster operations, including demanding AI workloads. You will help shape the platform and its architecture while making complex infrastructure easier for developers to operate.

What You'll Do

Build platform features in Go, including custom Kubernetes operators and controllers.

Design GitOps workflows with ArgoCD to streamline continuous deployment.

Develop infrastructure-as-code patterns with Terraform and Helm to provision and manage clusters.

Work with distributed storage technologies such as Ceph and WEKA for scalable, high-performance storage.

Create observability and monitoring systems with Prometheus and Grafana to surface cluster health and performance.

Build and optimize container networking with Cilium for security and observability.

Design federated Kubernetes architectures for multi-cluster management.

Automate recurring infrastructure tasks and reduce operational overhead for developers running production workloads.

What We're Looking For

At least 2 years of software development experience; approximately 5 years is preferred.

Hands-on experience writing Go for Kubernetes environments and managing production Kubernetes clusters at meaningful scale.

Experience with distributed storage such as Ceph or WEKA, and designing federated, multi-cluster Kubernetes architectures.

Experience with GitOps and ArgoCD, plus infrastructure as code using Terraform, Helm, or comparable tools.

Familiarity with container networking, CNI plugins, or service meshes such as Istio or Linkerd.

Experience with cloud platforms and managed Kubernetes, automation, and observability tools such as Prometheus and Grafana.

Experience with GPUs, bare-metal infrastructure, or open-source cloud-native projects is valuable.

Compensation & Benefits

Base salary: $180,000 to $210,000 USD annually. Visa sponsorship is available.

Location

Full-time, on-site in San Francisco, California, United States.
