About The Position

The cloud is broken: It's wasteful, slow, awfully expensive, and burdened with legacy tech that wasn't built for today's workloads. At Unikraft we're building a generational, truly millisecond-native, extremely scalable cloud platform that provides exponentially higher efficiency. Are you bored with your current job? Want to push the boundaries of what's possible in the cloud to the absolute limit? Our team consists of some of the best systems, performance, and security geeks out there, and is backed by top investors with category leaders as our customers. We believe a focused team of exceptional people, moving fast with conviction, can rebuild the cloud from first principles and make extreme efficiency (eg, millions of users on a few servers) available to everyone.

Requirements

Strong experience with containers (Docker, Dockerfiles), Linux, and CI/CD design.
Excellent debugging and optimization skills with a customer-focused mindset.
Comfortable working across technical and non-technical teams.
Computer science or equivalent background.
Ability to learn fast and adapt to different runtimes, build systems, and environments (Rust, Node, Go, Python, C++, etc.).

Nice To Haves

Familiarity with OCI standards, QEMU/KVM, Firecracker, Cloud-Hypervisor, and direct customer-facing experience.

Responsibilities

Work directly with clients to onboard and migrate complex infrastructure onto Unikraft Cloud.
Troubleshoot, refine, and ensure the performance and reliability of customer deployments.
Leverage your hands-on knowledge of Docker, Dockerfiles, and Linux-based systems to support and scale infrastructure.
Design and maintain robust CI/CD pipelines to streamline deployment and integration.
Act as a trusted advisor, helping clients navigate the intricacies of next-gen cloud infra.
Collaborate cross-functionally with product and engineering to incorporate customer feedback into our roadmap.
