About the role

  • Restate sits at the center of that shift.
  • Restate (restate.dev http://restate.dev) turns AI agents, workflows, and backend services into durable processes, allowing developers to focus on business logic rather than retries, state recovery, and failure handling.
  • WHY THIS ROLE IS INTERESTING DURABLE EXECUTION IS BECOMING FOUNDATIONAL INFRASTRUCTURE As AI systems become increasingly long-running and stateful, durable runtimes are emerging as a core infrastructure primitive.

Responsibilities

  • You'll help build the platform enabling that transition.

Requirements

  • Experience operating large-scale SaaS or platform infrastructure in production.
  • Experience with infrastructure-as-code and cloud automation.
  • Ability to thrive in ambiguity and operate with significant autonomy.

Nice to have

  • Kubernetes operator development.
  • Cluster API, Crossplane, or Terraform experience.
  • Experience with multi-tenant control planes.
  • Experience operating infrastructure in enterprise or compliance-sensitive environments.
  • Familiarity with durable execution systems or workflow runtimes.
  • You prefer working on runtime internals rather than cloud infrastructure.
  • You prefer architecture and review work over hands-on ownership.
  • You are uncomfortable operating production infrastructure or participating in on-call rotations.

Skills

  • The infrastructure and control plane powering Restate Cloud.
  • The systems enabling BYOC and self-hosted deployments.
  • Reliability, observability, and operational excellence across the fleet.
  • Automation and tooling that allow the platform to scale efficiently.
  • Production operations and participation in the cloud on-call rotation.
  • Single Rust binary deployment
  • Custom storage layer
  • Low-latency orchestration engine
  • Integrated observability
  • No external database dependency
