Infrastructure Engineer (Entry to Staff Level)

Position : Full-time

Location : San Francisco, CA (On-site - 5 days / week)

Experience Level : 2–6 years

Compensation : $200K–$375K (mid-level : approx. $250K–$325K; senior : $300K–$375K)

Equity : Competitive

About The Role

We are looking for a passionate Infrastructure Engineer to join our growing team and help build and operate foundational services for a large-scale, AI-driven platform. Your work will support high reliability, scalability, and performance, enabling us to serve millions of users and meet enterprise-grade infrastructure needs.

What You’ll Do

  • Design and implement critical infrastructure services with well-defined Service Level Objectives (SLOs), robust runbooks, and actionable telemetry.
  • Collaborate with cross-functional teams (research, product) to architect solutions, prototype infrastructure, assess performance, and scale new features.
  • Tune service performance : optimize networking paths, implement smart caching and queuing strategies, and fine-tune CPU / memory / I / O to meet tight p95 and p99 latency targets.
  • Evolve and improve CI / CD workflows, define “golden paths,” and build self-service tools to boost developer velocity and ensure platform safety.
  • Support multiple deployment architectures, ensuring customers have reliable observability and upgrade mechanisms.
  • Drive infrastructure-as-code (IaC) practices, primarily using Terraform, enforce GitOps workflows, reduce drift via reusable modules, and apply policy-as-code.
  • Participate in on-call rotations and continually reduce operational toil by automating repetitive tasks and preventing recurring incidents.

What We’re Looking For

2–6 years of experience in infrastructure engineering, site reliability engineering, or a closely related role.

  • Strong experience with infrastructure-as-code (Terraform) and GitOps practices.
  • Deep understanding of monitoring, telemetry, and observability tools.
  • Proven ability to optimize system performance (networking, caching, CPU / memory / I / O).
  • Experience building or improving CI / CD pipelines and developer self-service platforms.
  • Hands-on with deployment architectures and operational practices for scalable, production-level systems.
  • Experience participating in on-call rotations and reducing operational burden through automation.
  • Excellent collaboration skills, with the ability to partner with product and research teams.
  • Demonstrated ownership, problem-solving mindset, and drive to build for scale.
  • Benefits & Perks

  • Competitive base salary + equity.
  • Opportunity to build infrastructure for a highly scalable, AI-powered product.
  • Work in a fast-growth environment that values reliability, automation, and developer experience.
  • If you're passionate about building scalable, high-performance infrastructure and want to work in a startup environment with significant impact, we’d love to hear from you.
