You’ll help architect the backbone of our platform, focusing on automation, reliability, and continuous improvement.

Own features end‑to‑end, from architecture and implementation to testing and production deployment. Develop and maintain automation through Infrastructure as Code and CI/CD pipelines. Monitor, optimize, and scale our cloud infrastructure for performance and reliability. Establish and enforce best practices for observability, logging, and alerting. Lead and participate in incident response, troubleshooting complex issues and driving postmortem learning and improvements. Collaborate across engineering teams to improve developer velocity while balancing reliability, security, and cost. What We’re Looking For 5+ years of experience in Platform, Site Reliability, Infrastructure, or similar roles. Strong experience with containerization and orchestration (Docker, ECS, Kubernetes a plus). Expertise with CI/CD pipelines and modern infrastructure automation tools. Coding and scripting proficiency (Python, Go, Bash, etc.). Hands‑on experience with cloud infrastructure (GCP preferred) and distributed systems. Familiarity with monitoring, observability, and incident management best practices. Comfortable working in a fast‑paced startup environment, where adaptability and ownership are essential. What We Offer Competitive salary and meaningful equity in a high‑growth company. 100% company‑paid base medical, dental, and vision coverage for employees + healthcare FSA. 401(k) savings plan. Unlimited PTO and paid family leave. Home office & equipment stipend. Daily in‑office lunch and dinner provided. Commuter benefits (pre‑tax transit and parking).

We are committed to a diverse and inclusive workforce and welcome people from all backgrounds, experiences, perspectives, and abilities.
