About the role
- You will sit at the rare intersection of out-of-band server management and modern Go services, and you will be one of the first engineers to help us grow this team.
- You will report to the VP of Engineering.
- This role could be a fit for you if you bring: - Go Fluency: You write production Go for a living.
Responsibilities
- vMetal: You will contribute to architecture decisions, help drive the roadmap for bare metal provisioning and lifecycle management, and hold a high bar for code review and design quality on the team.
- You will design and ship the systems that drive Redfish, IPMI, and PXE workflows in production, not glue scripts, real services with clean interfaces and solid tests.
- Own how servers get discovered, inventoried, provisioned, configured, and reclaimed.
- You will eliminate manual intervention from the day-2 path and design for hardware that fails in surprising ways.
- Partner with customer engineering and the broader platform team to debug, harden, and ship against real production workloads.
- You will be on-call for the systems you build and you will treat reliability as a first-class deliverable.
- You hold both server management and modern API design in your head and can design between them.
- Comfort with Kubernetes internals, controllers, or operators, enough to design how bare metal hosts integrate cleanly with tenant clusters.
- We do whatever it takes to figure it out, put in the work, and ruthlessly prioritize the actions that drive measurable impact for the business.
- For our team, this means going the extra mile to support one another and to continuously drive each other to new heights.
Requirements
- You have debugged what happens when a BMC lies to you.
- You have built or operated bare-metal-as-a-service offerings, an AI Cloud, or a hyperscaler bare metal team where infrastructure was the product.
- You have been on-call for the systems you have built and you treat that as a feature, not a tax.
- You have a doctor's appointment or need to head to the supermarket to get groceries at 2pm?
- You are comfortable in IPMI, iDRAC, and ILO consoles, and equally comfortable shipping a Go controller.
Compensation
- We offer a competitive compensation package, including equity.

- Competitive Salary: We offer a competitive compensation package, including equity.
- Platinum-Level Insurance: Health, dental, vision, and life Insurance, including plans for you and eligible dependents (benefits vary depending on country).
