Field Engineer (Cloud Infrastructure)

We’re a fast-growing startup in the cloud computing space . We believe that while cloud platforms are functionally great and quite powerful, they are built on legacy software and are irritably inefficient (and expensive!). Based on award-winning research and open-source tech, we have built Unikraft Cloud, a next-generation cloud platform that allows for exponentially better efficiency, performance, and security.

What You’ll Own

As an early Field Engineer, you’ll play a critical role in shaping both the user experience and our core infrastructure . You’ll work on real-world problems, engage deeply with customers, and operate across diverse environments and languages, from Rust and Go to Python and C++. You’ll be exposed to the full lifecycle of customer adoption , and your work will directly influence product direction and success.

Customer Deployments: Work directly with clients to onboard and migrate complex infrastructure onto Unikraft Cloud.

Infrastructure Optimization: Troubleshoot, refine, and ensure the performance and reliability of customer deployments.

Container & Linux Expertise: Leverage your hands-on knowledge of Docker, Dockerfiles, and Linux-based systems to support and scale infrastructure.

CI/CD Enablement: Design and maintain robust CI/CD pipelines to streamline deployment and integration.

Technical Partner: Act as a trusted advisor, helping clients navigate the intricacies of next-gen cloud infra.

Product Feedback Loop: Collaborate cross-functionally with product and engineering to incorporate customer feedback into our roadmap.

Versatile Engineer: Ability to learn fast and adapt to different runtimes, build systems, and environments (Rust, Node, Go, Python, C++, etc.).

Extra Points: Familiarity with OCI standards, QEMU/KVM, Firecracker, Cloud-Hypervisor, and direct customer-facing experience.

Why You’ll Love This Team

Next-gen product: A hyperscale-efficient cloud built for serious infra needs—built on research, battle-tested by customers.
