Production Engineer, IaaS Team Lead

How We Operate

• Be a barrel. Full autonomy. Own things end to end, take on scope without being asked, no permission required to operate outside your core role.
• Insane urgency. We drive everything forward as fast as possible.
• Reason from first principles. Challenge every assumption. Zero analogy thinking, no egos, the best idea wins.
• Love of the game. The frontier of AI is the most interesting problem of our time. We put in long hours at high intensity to push the frontier forward.
• Build something that actually matters. If you're going to spend your time, spend it on something that matters to the world.

Examples of key problems the team is working on

• Operate at the scale of a nation, not a building. The fleet you run will draw more power than some countries, on the way to 10s to 100s of GWs.
• Fly the plane while it's being built. Sites come online in pieces, and you keep the live ones running flawlessly while construction continues around them.
• Write the playbook, don't inherit it. No prior operations org has run at this speed and scale, so the standards you set become the standard.

Role Scope

• Lead the IaaS team delivering compute to customers: provisioning, isolation, and lifecycle across the fleet.
• Own the platform layer between bare metal and customer workloads: images, networking, and storage integration.
• Build self-service capability so customer onboarding shrinks from weeks to hours.
• Set platform SLOs and the engineering priorities that hold them.

What We're Looking for

The below is a starting point. We always make space for exceptional people, so if you don't fit this role exactly, tell us where you would

• You've led teams building IaaS or cloud platform layers.
• You bring 4+ years of experience managing engineering teams shipping into operational environments.
• You've designed multi-tenant isolation that customers trusted with real workloads.
• You've cut onboarding or provisioning time by an order of magnitude somewhere, and can say how.
• You balance platform roadmap against operational load honestly.
• Bonus: Bare-metal provisioning. GPU virtualization and passthrough. Kubernetes. Cloud networking.

We are committed to pay equity and transparency.
