The posting

ABOUT THE ROLE

As the founding DevOps engineer at a personal AI software company, you'll build and own the operational platform that supports reliable, secure, frequent product releases. You'll work closely with a small engineering team and help establish the infrastructure and practices it will grow on.

WHAT YOU'LL DO

- Own cloud infrastructure, networking, databases, and compute, managing environments through infrastructure as code.

- Build and maintain CI/CD pipelines, gated tests, preview environments, feature flags, and rapid rollback tooling.

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

- Establish on-call rotations, runbooks, and incident response practices, and lead postmortems that drive improvements.

- Implement security controls including secrets management, least-privilege access, vulnerability scanning, and audit logging.

- Track service costs and capacity, plan for traffic growth, and reduce infrastructure waste.

- Set platform standards and help hire and onboard future infrastructure engineers while staying hands-on.

WHAT WE'RE LOOKING FOR

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

- 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 and deployment tooling that supports frequent, reliable releases.

- Experience with observability, incident response, postmortems, cloud accounts, networking, databases, and compute.

- Strong security fundamentals, including IAM, network boundaries, secrets management, and compliance work such as SOC 2.

- Ability to write TypeScript or Python and read application code, with experience verifying and owning code developed using AI-assisted tools.

- Experience leading a growing engineering team while remaining technically involved, and hiring or onboarding infrastructure engineers.

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.
