Forward Deployed Engineer, Infrastructure

About the Role

Join an AI infrastructure team to lead deployments of machine learning software in enterprise customer environments, from cloud VPCs to on-premises infrastructure. You will work directly with customer engineering, IT, security, and platform teams to make complex deployments reliable and repeatable.

What You'll Do

• Plan, configure, test, and roll out deployments across customer VPC and on-premises environments.

• Partner with customer engineers and senior stakeholders, including through live calls and shared communication channels.

• Diagnose and resolve customer-specific Kubernetes, cloud IAM, and networking issues.

• Build monitoring, telemetry, and automation that turn one-off deployment work into reusable patterns.

• Understand the hardware supporting machine learning models and deploy them on customer-controlled infrastructure.

What We're Looking For

• At least 3 years of experience in infrastructure engineering, DevOps, or SRE, with relevant experience in the 3 to 10+ year range.

• Deep production expertise with Kubernetes and Terraform, plus experience with AWS, GCP, or Azure, networking, and infrastructure as code.

• Familiarity with Python, Helm, Docker, Linux, GPU infrastructure, and customer deployment tools such as Replicated or KOTS.

• Experience deploying software into customer-controlled environments, such as BYOC or VPC, air-gapped systems, on-premises installations, or customer-managed clusters.

• Clear, structured communication and the ability to troubleshoot live with external engineering teams.

• Infrastructure experience at a startup or high-growth technology company, with a strong record of delivery and sustained role tenure.
