This position may be filled at multiple levels depending on the candidate’s experience and qualifications.

We are building a modern, software‑defined infrastructure platform designed to support the next generation of applications across the organization.

This platform is designed around open-source technologies, commodity hardware, and automation-first principles. It provides the core compute, storage, networking, and container runtime capabilities required to run distributed systems at scale across both data centers and cloud environments.

This is a greenfield engineering effort focused on defining how infrastructure is built and operated using code, APIs, and declarative systems, with reliability, observability, and repeatability designed in from the start.

Our approach emphasizes:

Linux-first systems design
Kubernetes as a core abstraction layer
Infrastructure-as-code and GitOps workflows
Open observability standards (Prometheus, OpenTelemetry)
Distributed, software-defined storage and networking

Engineers on this team build and own foundational systems that applications across the organization rely on for secure, reliable operation.
