AI Platform / SRE Jobs

An AI Platform or Site Reliability Engineer builds and runs the internal platform that AI product teams ship on: Kubernetes and cloud infrastructure, CI/CD, observability, capacity and cost management, and the reliability engineering that keeps inference-backed products inside their SLOs. The role differs from AI Infrastructure in altitude: infrastructure roles go deep on GPUs, training clusters, and serving runtimes; platform and SRE roles own the paved road every team at the company uses. Hiring is broad across AI-native companies of every size. Strong candidates bring production SRE experience plus curiosity about the failure modes stochastic systems add.
