Role Overview

FlexAI is looking for a Staff DevOps / SRE Engineer to define our infrastructure strategy, establish SRE best practices, and build systems capable of running large-scale AI workloads across distributed, multi-cloud environments.

You’ll work closely with developers to ensure our platform is reliable, performant, and scalable — without slowing down product velocity.

What You’ll Do

Own Reliability & Architecture:

- Design and evolve the infrastructure backbone for our AI and PaaS platform
- Build highly available, fault-tolerant, and scalable systems
- Define and drive SRE practices (SLIs, SLOs, error budgets)

Build Infrastructure at Scale:

- Lead Infrastructure as Code using Pulumi
- Own and scale Kubernetes clusters and containerized workloads
- Standardize and automate infrastructure for global deployments

CI/CD & Automation:

- Design and scale CI/CD pipelines for fast, reliable releases
- Build self-healing systems and automated remediation workflows
- Drive GitOps and platform engineering practices

Observability & Performance:

- Implement end-to-end observability using VictoriaMetrics and Grafana (metrics, logs, traces)
- Identify and resolve performance bottlenecks (latency, throughput, cost)
- Lead incident response, root cause analysis, and postmortems

Leadership & Collaboration:

- Partner with backend, AI, runtime, and security teams
- Guide infrastructure decisions and scaling strategy




- Mentor engineers and raise the bar on reliability and engineering standards

Security & Resilience:

- Embed security into infrastructure and deployment workflows
- Design for resilience (disaster recovery, chaos testing, capacity planning)

What You'll Need to Be Successful

- 8+ years of experience in DevOps, SRE, or Infrastructure Engineering
- Proven experience operating large-scale, distributed systems in production
- Deep expertise in:
- - Kubernetes & container orchestration
- Pulumi (or similar IaC tools)
- Cloud or hybrid environments (AWS, GCP, Azure, or on-prem)
- Observability stacks (Prometheus, Grafana, OpenTelemetry)

- Strong experience with CI/CD, automation, and release engineering
- Proficiency in Python, Go, or Bash
- Strong systems thinking and debugging skills in high-scale environments
- Experience defining and operating with SLOs / SLAs
- Experience in startup environments
- Comfortable leveraging AI coding tools and agents to move faster

Nice to Have

- Experience with AI/ML infrastructure or GPU workloads
- Familiarity with distributed or high-performance compute systems
- Exposure to platform engineering / internal developer platforms
- Experience scaling systems from Beta to production

Why FlexAI

- Work on cutting-edge AI infrastructure
- Build systems that power developers and enterprises
- High ownership, fast execution, real impact
- Team-oriented, high-caliber team
