About the Role
This is the first infrastructure hire at an early-stage agentic integration platform, working directly with the CTO on a leadership track. You'll own the entire infra and platform layer — from durable execution runtime to agent infrastructure to observability — and set the patterns every future infrastructure engineer builds on. This is a high-ownership, high-impact role with a clear path into leading the team.
What You'll Do
-
Own and build a mini cloud platform for integration runtime: durable execution, sandboxed isolation, and self-healing infrastructure.
-
Design and operate the agent infrastructure that enables coding agents to write, test, and deploy integration code at production scale.
-
Implement full observability pipelines (logs, metrics, tracing) across every integration and agent.
-
Ship a single-tenant, self-hostable deployment of the product with end-to-end observability included.
-
Establish engineering patterns and standards that future infrastructure hires will build on.
-
Work as a peer to the founding team, shipping to production constantly.
-
Help recruit and, within a year, grow into leading the infrastructure team.
What We're Looking For
-
3+ years of engineering experience at a high-growth startup, comfortable in fast, ambiguous, under-resourced environments.
-
Proven experience designing and implementing observability pipelines (logs, metrics, tracing) for production systems.
-
Hands-on proficiency with Kubernetes, Docker, and AWS.
-
Strong experience with TypeScript and PostgreSQL.
-
Background building platform or runtime infrastructure (think: execution sandboxing, durable workflows, or developer platforms).
-
Experience with or strong interest in self-hostable / single-tenant deployment models.
-
Comfortable operating as a technical leader: setting direction, defining standards, and eventually growing a team.
