About the role
- About Field AI Field AI is at the forefront of robotic embodied AI, transforming industries like construction, security, mining, and manufacturing.
- Whether monitoring construction progress, ensuring safety compliance, or conducting predictive maintenance, Field AI is advancing technology to make a meaningful impact.
Responsibilities
- Design, build, and operate the cloud infrastructure for the data platform: compute (Kubernetes, serverless, batch clusters), storage (object stores, warehouse/lakehouse), and networking.
- Manage everything as code: Terraform/IaC, GitOps workflows, and CI/CD for infrastructure and data services.
- Own platform reliability: SLAs/SLOs, on-call practices, incident response, and capacity planning as fleet data volume grows.
- Implement security and governance: IAM and access controls, secrets management, encryption, audit logging, and environment isolation.
- Own cloud cost management: monitoring, budgeting, and optimization across storage and compute.
- Build the observability stack (metrics, logging, tracing) for all data platform services.
- Build internal tooling and paved paths so pipeline and analytics engineers can ship without becoming infrastructure experts.
Requirements
- Working knowledge of data infrastructure components (warehouses, object storage, streaming systems, orchestrators) and what they demand from underlying infrastructure.
- Strong problem-solving skills and ability to work in interdisciplinary teams.
- Experience supporting data or ML platforms specifically (Spark/Databricks clusters, GPU scheduling, feature stores).
- Experience with high-volume telemetry or IoT/edge fleets.
- Track record of significant cloud cost optimization.
- Experience with security fundamentals: IAM, network security, secrets management.
Nice to have
- Bachelor's or Master's degree in Computer Science, Engineering, or a related technical field.
- 3-5+ years of experience in infrastructure, platform, DevOps, or SRE roles, ideally supporting data-intensive systems.
- Strong experience with a major cloud ( AWS or GCP ), Kubernetes, and infrastructure-as-code ( Terraform or similar).
- Strong programming skills in Python, Go, or similar for automation and internal tooling.
