Founding Engineer - Infrastructure

This is the first infrastructure hire at a seed-stage gig economy and flexible staffing platform, working directly with the CTO on a clear path to leading the infra domain. You will own the full runtime and platform layer from day one, setting the patterns every future infrastructure engineer builds on.

Own and evolve the integration runtime platform: durable execution, sandboxed isolation, and self-healing behavior.

Build and operate the agent infrastructure that runs coding agents writing, testing, and deploying integration code at production scale.

Design and ship full observability across logs, metrics, and tracing for every integration and agent workflow.

Deliver a self-hostable, single-tenant deployment of the platform as a standalone product.

Set the foundational engineering patterns the growing infrastructure team will inherit.

Work as a peer to the founders, shipping to production constantly and helping hire the team you will eventually lead.

3 to 9 years of professional software engineering experience, with at least 3 of those years in fast-moving, ambiguous environments at a high-growth startup.

Background at a startup backed by a top-tier venture firm or comparable high-growth environment; big-tech-only backgrounds are not a strong fit for this role.
