Senior Software Engineer — DevOps & Platform, AI Systems

A software engineer who chose infrastructure.

You write real code — not just glue scripts.

You'd be dangerous on a product team, but you'd rather build the systems that make every product team faster.

Platforms, not tickets.

An agent orchestrator, not a typist.

You don't want to be a faster keyboard.

You manage agents to do the heavy lifting — generating IaC, triaging alerts, writing the first draft of the runbook — while you keep your hands on the architecture and the judgment calls.

The terminal is a cockpit for orchestration.

Productively lazy.

Your instinct is to eliminate toil at the root.

If a human is clicking through a console or babysitting a deploy, you replace them with code or an agent.

Your biggest bottleneck should be deciding what to automate next — while the automation runs itself.

Fundamentals first.

Linux, networking, distributed systems, how things actually fail under load.

You understand the machine, not just the tool that wraps it.

When the pipeline breaks at 2am, you can read the trace and fix the cause — and when an agent proposes a fix, you can tell whether it's right.

First-principles thinker with vision.

You design for the failure mode, not the happy path.

You question the assumptions, simplify the system, and build for the next order of magnitude — not just today's load.

High agency.

You don't wait for perfect specs or permission.

You find a path, propose it, and move.

Large organizations have walls; you figure out which ones to go through, around, or remove — and you do it constructively.
