Infrastructure Engineer
Location:
San Francisco (On-site, 5 days/week)
Salary:
$200K – $375K + competitive equity
About the Role:
Our client is a
fast-growing AI startup
building at massive scale — powering millions of real customer interactions for major enterprise clients. As they continue to expand their footprint across large organizations, they're hiring an
Infrastructure Engineer
to design and operate the core systems that keep their platform reliable, fast, and scalable.
You'll work across product, research, and engineering teams to ensure the company's infrastructure can support the needs of global enterprise customers. This is a rare opportunity to own systems at the intersection of AI, distributed infrastructure, and performance engineering.
What You'll Do
- Design and implement critical infrastructure services with strong SLOs, clear runbooks, and actionable telemetry.
- Partner with research and product teams to architect scalable solutions and deploy new features.
- Optimize service latencies and system performance (CPU, memory, I/O, networking, caching).
- Evolve CI/CD pipelines, golden paths, and self-service tooling to boost developer velocity and safety.
- Support customer deployments with robust observability, reliability, and upgrade processes.
- Lead infrastructure-as-code and GitOps practices, automating everything possible.
- Participate in on-call rotations and continuously drive down operational toil.
What We're Looking For
- 2–6 years
of experience building and operating production infrastructure at scale. - Experience working during high-growth phases at a fast-moving company.
- Strong foundation in
cloud, core, data, or ML infrastructure
. - Hands-on experience with
Kubernetes (GKE, EKS, or AKS)
and infrastructure-as-code tools like Terraform. - Degree in
Computer Science or Computer Engineering
from a top university. - Strong written communication skills and the ability to explain complex designs clearly.
- Must be willing to work
on-site in San Francisco (5 days/week)
.
Why This Role Stands Out
- Build infrastructure that supports
millions of AI-driven customer interactions
for world-class brands. - Work alongside exceptional engineers and founders from companies like Airtable, Box, and Rippling.
- Join a company backed by
a16z, Accel, and Bain Capital
, with over
$200M+ raised
and clear product-market fit. - Solve deep engineering challenges — reliability, scale, performance — in one of the most exciting AI companies today.
