The posting

ABOUT THE ROLE

As the founding DevOps Engineer at an early-stage personal AI company, you will build the operational platform that enables a small engineering team to ship frequently and keep a trusted product reliable. You will establish the infrastructure, security, and incident response practices that support the product as it grows.

WHAT YOU'LL DO

- Own cloud infrastructure, networking, databases, and compute, defining environments as code so engineers can provision and remove them reliably.

- Build and maintain CI/CD pipelines with fast builds, gated tests, preview environments, feature flags, and rapid rollbacks.

- Design and operate logging, metrics, tracing, and alerting systems that surface issues early.

- Establish on-call rotations, runbooks, and incident response practices, and lead postmortems that reduce repeat issues.

- Implement security controls, including secrets management, least-privilege access, dependency scanning, audit logs, and infrastructure supporting privacy commitments.

- Monitor infrastructure costs and capacity, plan for growth, and reduce waste.

- Set platform standards and help hire engineers as the team grows.

WHAT WE'RE LOOKING FOR

- At least 4 years of DevOps, SRE, platform, or infrastructure engineering experience, including production on-call responsibilities.

- Hands-on experience with a major cloud platform, infrastructure as code such as Terraform or Pulumi, containers, and orchestration.

- A track record of building CI/CD pipelines and deployment tooling that support frequent, reliable releases.

- Experience with observability, incident response, postmortems, cloud infrastructure ownership, and security practices such as IAM and vulnerability scanning.

- Ability to write TypeScript or Python and work with application code in production systems.

- Familiarity with AI-assisted development workflows, with the judgment to verify and take ownership of shipped code.

- A hands-on, founding-team mindset, with experience in cost monitoring, capacity planning, and helping teams adopt infrastructure practices.

Why it works

3×

more interviews than doing it yourself with ChatGPT.

ChatGPT writes a CV and never learns what happened to it. We see every reply. For each CV we know:

  • How it was written, and how the review scored it
  • When we applied, and how long after the posting went up
  • Which posting, which company, which city
  • Who got the interview, and who heard nothing

That is how we know which CVs get called.
