About the role

Role focused on building and operating Fluidstack's IaaS platform, observability, and production control plane for hyperscale GPU infrastructure.

Responsibilities

  • Own the observability platform. Build and operate the data pipelines, decoration and correlation engine, and healthcheck framework that make the fleet legible — from site down to device and link.
  • Define and build the API surface for infrastructure. Design the contracts between production infrastructure and every tool that touches it.
  • Build the production control plane. Unified machine management, actual state inspection, distributed command execution — and the Kubernetes-based infrastructure that underpins it all.
  • Own fleet state as source of truth. SLOs, site lifecycle state, and integration with internal infrastructure management and customer-facing operations platforms.
  • Land new hardware into the platform cleanly. ZTP, DHCP, DNS, artifacts — every new XPU generation and site integration goes through IaaS before production.

Qualifications

  • You bring 5+ years of applied industry experience.
  • You design APIs that age well. You've felt the pain of a leaky abstraction at scale and you don't repeat it.
  • You move toward ambiguity, not away from it. You walk into the fog, build the map, and explain it to everyone else.
  • You learn at a steep slope. You reach real competence in an unfamiliar domain fast.
  • You carry a pager without flinching. You run the incident, write the postmortem, fix the systemic cause, and move on.
  • You're fluent with AI tooling. LLM APIs, MCP servers, and agentic frameworks, and you drive Claude Code, Cursor, or similar every day.
  • You've shipped production services that other teams depend on at scale, and you're comfortable in any language using AI coding tools.
