the posting

Location: Remote (US). Must be based in Dallas, San Francisco or New York City. Remote for now, with hybrid planned further down the road.

Pay:

L6 (Staff): $270,400–$365,000

L7 (Sr. Staff): $341,400–$401,600

Compensation is not an issue for the right person. The role pays nearly all cash: the bonus is folded into base, and there is an equity component on top.

A late-stage AI cloud company backed by NVIDIA, with a valuation in the billions, runs AI compute out of data centers around the world. It is now building a managed Kubernetes platform that turns large fleets of bare-metal compute into dedicated, isolated clusters for customers running AI training and inference. You'd be early on that platform in a hands-on Staff / Sr. Staff role, writing and shipping the core code and helping set its technical direction.

What you'll do

Design and build core platform systems: APIs, controllers, operators and reconciliation loops

Write, review, test, debug and operate production code

Build a commercial Kubernetes service for dedicated customers running AI workloads

Design for failure handling, consistency and recovery across distributed systems

Define stable platform APIs that shield customers from backend changes

Work closely with the infrastructure, inference, networking and security teams

What you bring

A track record of shipping and maintaining production software

Deep Kubernetes platform experience: operators, CRDs, admission control, node lifecycle

Practical distributed systems knowledge: consensus, leader election, eventual consistency, fault domains

A rigorous SDLC: design reviews, CI/CD, staged rollouts, rollback and observability

Nice to have: delivered a Kubernetes or infrastructure control plane as a product; hyperscaler or neocloud experience running AI or GPU workloads; inference platforms, accelerators or device plugins; daily use of coding agents like Claude Code or Codex
