Infrastructure Engineer

Roboflow

13d • $165,000 - $200,000 • Hybrid

About The Position

As a member of our infrastructure team, you'll be at the heart of a fast-paced startup environment. Your primary focus will be on striking the right balance between rapid delivery, high reliability, and robust security. This isn't a traditional, siloed role; you'll need to wear many hats—acting as an infrastructure engineer one moment, and a developer, or even a security analyst. You will be securing, scaling, and maintaining the core infrastructure that powers our product. This includes our cloud architecture, databases, file storage, search clusters, microservices, and machine learning pipelines. You'll work closely with our product team and collaborate across the company on product, operations, and customer-facing projects, constantly context-switching to solve the next critical challenge.

Requirements

• Production experience with Kubernetes: Building and managing containerized applications at scale.
• Infrastructure-as-Code (IaC): Using Terraform, Helm charts, bash scripting, and Python to automate everything.
• Scale & Site Reliability: Operating, monitoring, and scaling large-scale applications (especially in ML/AI) in AWS and/or GCP.
• Development Skills: Proficiency in Node.js and Python, with the ability to collaborate with full-stack developers on designing and operating SaaS applications.
• ML/Big Data Ops: Hands-on experience with the infrastructure required for machine learning at scale (GPUs, Docker, Kubernetes) and familiarity with libraries like PyTorch or Tensorflow.
• CI/CD Automation: Experience with tools like GitHub Actions or Spacelift to build and deploy code efficiently.
• Pragmatic Security: Awareness of security best practices for cloud operations and how they can be applied to startup environments.
• AI-Native Engineering: Leveraging LLMs and AI tools to accelerate the development lifecycle—from writing and refactoring code to identifying security vulnerabilities and optimizing infrastructure costs.
