[Hiring] Pipeline Engineer @Cloudlinux

Role Description

We are looking for an experienced engineer to own the automated pipelines that turn threat intelligence into shipped protection for tens of millions of websites. This involves solving hard engineering problems, working with data at scale, in a world with many surprises.

This is not an analyst role and not a research role, but additional experience in this domain is welcome. What we need is someone who builds systems that keep working: complex logic underneath, boring and reliable on the outside.

The position is fully remote with flexible hours, allowing you to plan your day and work from anywhere in the world.

What you would own

• The automated protection pipeline — the chain from threat intelligence to a validated, deployed rule.
• Progressive release automation — rolling protection out across the fleet in controlled stages.
• Quality gates — deciding whether something we shipped is doing harm, and acting on that.
• CI at scale — validation that stands up real, disposable environments across a large matrix of software versions.
• LLM orchestration and cost control — several subsystems driven by AI agents.
• Observability and alerting across all of it — the pipelines are expected to report their own condition.

Key responsibilities

• Designing, building and operating the automated pipelines described above, end to end.
• Turning fragile multi-stage batch jobs into resumable, idempotent, observable systems.
• Defining and enforcing latency budgets and SLOs per stage.
• Building the observability layer — metrics, dashboards, alerting and health gates.
• Designing and implementing guardrails: automatic hold and rollback, blast-radius limits.
• Making the systems low-maintenance: eliminating manual steps and reducing the operational surface.
• Writing and maintaining unit and integration tests for complex logic.
• Investigating and resolving complex issues across various technologies.
• Collaborating with the security analysts and the Server team on architecture.

Qualifications

• 5+ years of professional backend/platform/infrastructure engineering experience.
• Demonstrable experience building and operating multi-stage data or automation pipelines.
• Real depth in at least one of Python, Go or Rust.
• Systems design judgement, more than raw coding throughput.
• Practical experience with workflow orchestration and job scheduling.
• A working instinct for reliability engineering.
• Hands-on observability experience.
• Deep CI/CD experience, ideally GitLab CI.
• Experience with object storage and large-scale analytical stores.
• Comfort designing state machines and long-running processes.
• Excellent debugging skills across system, network and data layers.
• Strong communication skills and comfort working in a distributed team.
• Proficiency in spoken and written English.

Nice to have

• Experience with progressive delivery.
• Experience running AI/LLM systems in production.
• Experience with fleet-scale telemetry.
• Familiarity with WordPress, PHP, or WAF/ModSecurity concepts.
• Experience with configuration management and Linux service operations.

Benefits

• A focus on professional development.
• Interesting and challenging projects.
• Fully remote work with flexible working hours.
• Paid 24 days of vacation per year, 10 days of national holidays, and unlimited sick leaves.
• Compensation for private medical insurance.
• Co-working and gym/sports reimbursement.
• Budget for education.
• The opportunity to receive a reward for the most innovative idea that the company can patent.
