Location: San Francisco Bay Area

Type: Full-Time

Compensation: Competitive salary + meaningful equity (founding tier)

Backed by 8VC, we're building a world-class team to tackle one of the industry's most critical infrastructure problems.

About The Role

We're building an AI-native, multi-tenant enterprise platform for complex domains in industrial verticals. In this architecture, DevOps isn't just about shipping features — it's about operationalizing intelligent agents, ensuring traceability across AI systems, and supporting mission-critical ML infrastructure at scale.

We're looking for a DevOps engineer who can own infrastructure from Day 1 — automating everything from CI/CD and observability to cloud governance and security. You'll work with a highly technical team building real-time AI pipelines and multi-agent systems. If you want to be the person who makes the platform run — fast, secure, reliable, and explainable — this is your role.

Responsibilities

• Build and maintain scalable cloud infrastructure across AWS/GCP/Azure with a focus on secure, tenant-isolated deployments
• Own and evolve CI/CD systems (e.g. GitHub Actions, ArgoCD) with progressive rollout, testing, and rollback flows
• Establish observability tooling across services, agents, and pipelines (OpenTelemetry, Prometheus, Grafana, Sentry)
• Implement policy-as-code (OPA, Rego) for deployment safety, RBAC, audit logging, and approval workflows
• Define and enforce SLAs, uptime targets (99.99%+), incident response, and remediation workflows
• Secure infrastructure: IAM, VPC, encryption, key management, image scanning, secrets rotation
• Automate deployments, infrastructure provisioning (Terraform, Helm), and environment replication

What We're Looking For

Core Experience:

• 4–10+ years in DevOps, platform engineering, or SRE in production-grade systems
• Strong experience with Docker, Kubernetes (EKS/GKE), Terraform or Pulumi
• Hands-on experience deploying and monitoring distributed cloud-native systems
• Familiar with GitOps practices, CI/CD design, progressive delivery, and secure SDLC
• Clear understanding of how to implement monitoring, alerting, and failure simulation in dynamic environments

Engineering Mindset:

• Obsessed with reliability, latency, uptime, and repeatability
• Security-aware and compliance-conscious
• Proactive — you don't wait for alerts to fix things
• Comfortable collaborating with backend, AI, and data teams

Bonus: Agent-Native / ML Ops Capabilities

• We're building an agentic, AI-native platform from the ground up. Experience here isn't required, but would be a strong differentiator:
• Experience running LLM orchestration frameworks (e.g. LangChain, LangGraph, Dust, ReAct agents)
• Building retrieval-augmented generation (RAG) pipelines — and deploying them safely and repeatably
• Familiarity with vector DBs (Weaviate, Qdrant, Pinecone) and embedding pipelines
• Monitoring and governing long-running or multi-agent chains
• Auditability and replay systems for agent decision-making
• Serving fine-tuned or open-source LLMs with model versioning and GPU scaling (e.g. vLLM, TGI)
• Interest in auto-remediation using agents (e.g. observability + alert → insight → response via LLM)

Why This Role Matters

DevOps is the nervous system of the platform — every agent, every data fabric component, every pipeline flows through what you build. This is a rare opportunity to design that system early, the right way, and future-proof it for scale, compliance, and trust.

If you're excited by intelligent systems, distributed data, and deeply technical infrastructure problems — and you want your work to have immediate real-world impact — we'd love to hear from you.
