[Hiring] Staff DevOps Engineer @Runware

Role Description

Runware is building the API layer for the next generation of AI products. Our platform gives teams fast, reliable access to real-time inference across thousands of models through a single flexible API. We help customers build and scale media generation products with better performance, lower cost, and less operational complexity.

We are looking for a Staff/Senior DevOps Engineer to help build, operate, and scale the infrastructure behind Runware’s global AI inference platform. You’ll play a critical role in making our systems faster, more resilient, easier to operate, and ready for the next stage of growth.

As a Staff/Senior DevOps Engineer, you’ll help design, build, and operate the systems that power real-time AI inference across large-scale GPU fleets and a global production platform. This is not a traditional DevOps role; you’ll be working at the intersection of:

• Bare-metal infrastructure
• GPUs
• Networking
• Automation
• Observability
• High-performance distributed systems

You’ll turn complex, hardware-driven infrastructure into reliable, automated, developer-friendly platforms. Your responsibilities will include:

• Provisioning and orchestration
• Deployment pipelines
• Monitoring
• Incident response
• Capacity scaling

You’ll build the foundations that let Runware scale with confidence: infrastructure that is fast, resilient, observable, secure, and built for the demands of real-time AI.

Qualifications

• Strong experience as a DevOps Engineer, SRE, Infrastructure Engineer, Platform Engineer or similar
• Deep Linux knowledge and confidence debugging real production issues across networking, storage, performance, services and system behaviour
• Hands-on experience building automation, Infrastructure-as-Code, CI/CD pipelines and deployment workflows
• Experience operating high-availability, low-latency or high-throughput platforms
• Strong networking fundamentals across TCP/IP, DNS, load balancing, routing, firewalls, proxies, TLS and HTTP
• A calm and pragmatic approach under pressure
• Strong communication skills and good judgement
• Bias toward automation over manual toil

Requirements

• Build and scale the infrastructure that powers real-time AI inference across GPU fleets, bare-metal servers, serverless and containerised production systems
• Help evolve Runware’s platform toward more elastic, on-demand infrastructure
• Make Runware faster, more reliable and more resilient by improving critical paths
• Automate the hard parts of infrastructure operations
• Build the observability backbone for a high-performance AI platform
• Play a leading role in production operations, incident response, debugging and post-incident improvements
• Strengthen the security and compliance foundations of our infrastructure

Benefits

• Generous paid time off – vacation, sick days, public holidays
• Meaningful stock options – share in the upside you create
• Remote-first setup – work from home anywhere we can employ you
• Flexible hours – own your schedule outside core collaboration blocks
• Family leave – paid maternity, paternity, and caregiver time
• Company retreats – twice-yearly gatherings in inspiring locations
