Staff Infrastructure Software Engineer

A fast-growing, well-backed startup applying AI to a legacy industry ripe for disruption - real-time video processing at scale, turning cameras and sensors into intelligent systems. Rare role covering both software and infrastructure across a large connected device fleet.
This is a genuinely broad role for someone who wants to own a stack end to end rather than a narrow slice of it. You'll sit across cloud and edge, writing real infrastructure software and running the systems that keep hundreds of thousands of devices online, updated, and observable in the field. Small team, high autonomy, direct impact.

What you'll do


Write and maintain production-grade infrastructure software - not just config, but real tooling and services in Python or Go
Provision and manage cloud resources through Infrastructure as Code (Pulumi or Terraform)
Build and run device provisioning and OTA update pipelines across a fleet of hundreds of thousands of connected devices
Design and maintain CI/CD pipelines and automation to keep developer workflows fast and reliable
Own observability and telemetry across both cloud and edge - self-hosting and maintaining tooling such as Grafana and Prometheus
Support security and compliance efforts (SOC 2, HIPAA)
Maximise developer productivity by streamlining and standardising workflows


What you'll bring


5+ years writing production infrastructure on AWS
Strong Python or Go experience (3+ years)
Solid Docker and Kubernetes experience, ideally EKS
Proven experience building CI/CD pipelines and automation
Hands-on experience self-hosting observability tools (Grafana, Prometheus or similar)
Edge/IoT infrastructure experience - device fleets, OTA updates, embedded Linux


Nice to have


Yocto or embedded Linux build experience
Remote management of on-prem or field-deployed infrastructure
High-volume data-processing pipelines
Prior SOC 2 / HIPAA compliance exposure


On offer: early-stage equity, flexible PTO, regular team offsites, top-spec hardware.
