            Job Description
            
                We’re looking for a  Founding DevOps Engineer  to join our early team in Bengaluru.
If you love building from the ground up, experimenting with infrastructure tools, and believe in  self-hosted, efficient systems  over cloud defaults — this role is for you.
What You’ll Do
Design, deploy, and manage  self-hosted infrastructure  using  Nomad ,  Consul , and  Terraform (IaC)
Build and maintain  CI/CD pipelines  for seamless deployments
Manage and optimize  Linux-based systems  for reliability and performance
Collaborate closely with developers to automate workflows and improve developer productivity
Own the  end-to-end DevOps strategy  — from bare metal provisioning to observability and scaling
Continuously experiment, test, and improve —  we value curiosity, autonomy, and initiative
What We’re Looking For
Strong experience with  Infrastructure as Code (IaC)  — Terraform, Ansible, or similar
Deep understanding of  Linux system administration
Experience building or maintaining  CI/CD pipelines  (GitHub Actions, Jenkins, etc.)
Hands-on experience with  self-hosted deployments  (Nomad, Docker, or Kubernetes)
Strong debugging and problem-solving skills
A mindset of  ownership  and  enthusiasm for trying out new things independently
Prior experience in an  early-stage startup  is a plus
Bonus Points
Experience with  HashiCorp Nomad, Consul, or Vault
Exposure to  LLM infrastructure  (model hosting, inference optimization, GPU orchestration, etc.)
Familiarity with  networking, load balancing, and service discovery
Interest in  edge computing  or  distributed systems
Why Join US
Be part of the  core founding team  shaping our infrastructure vision
Get full ownership and freedom to  experiment and innovate
Build and scale  cutting-edge self-hosted and AI infrastructure
Learn fast, build fast, and make an impact every single day
