•
Build and scale the ingestion, storage, and search infrastructure behind 10,000+ government data sources: Postgres with logical replication, object storage on S3 and R2, pipelines that run continuously.
•
Ship one codebase to three security environments: commercial SaaS on Cloudflare Workers, self-hosted Kubernetes in AWS GovCloud for FedRAMP High, and IL5 deployments — including tooling we've built ourselves, like forks of Supabase and Trigger.dev for restricted networks.
•
Build compliance into the platform itself: automated CVE remediation that took 10,000+ CVEs across 20+ container images to zero in two weeks, secure-by-default services, auditable CI/CD.
•
Build infrastructure where AI agents are first-class users: agentic harnesses that support how billions in government contract volume gets won and managed, automated remediation loops, and deployment tooling used by engineers and agents alike.
•
Work with our deployment team to integrate customer data, including data underpinning America's warfighting capabilities, and support thousands of users at enterprises managing billions in contracts.
Our stack: TypeScript, SvelteKit, Cloudflare Workers, Kubernetes, Postgres, Trigger.dev , Chainguard, OpenTelemetry, AWS GovCloud
•
5+ years of experience in backend, platform, or infrastructure engineering roles
•
Experience building platform or data infrastructure that other engineers depend on.
•
Depth across layers: data modeling and Postgres internals, Kubernetes in production, backend services in TypeScript or Python.
•
You've taken a system through real scale — a migration, a cost cliff, a throughput wall.
•
You've built and broken infrastructure to understand how it works, and you bring a security-first mindset to sensitive environments.
•
You use AI tools heavily in your own work and know where they're reliable.
Nice to have: experience in FedRAMP, IL, HIPAA, or other regulated environments; open-source platform or infrastructure work.
