We build AI agents that learn how processes actually run, and then run their operations.\nWe're a Series A startup, backed by Sequoia and other leading VC firms, led by Co-Founders who created and led Forward Deployed AI Engineering at Palantir, and we're growing our team in New York and London. We're a deeply technical team of engineers, AI researchers, and strategists with a high bar for talent and a shared belief that exceptional people are the foundation of everything great we'll build.\nThe Role\nWe're looking for a Site Reliability Engineer to join our infrastructure team as the second-in-seat hire. Our team ships fast enough that we're starting to hit GitHub's rate limits, and infrastructure has to stay a month ahead of that. You'll be in key engineering meetings to ensure our infrastructure is ready before anyone asks, and to catch any decisions that may become infrastructure problems later.\nThis is not a ticket queue. You'll decide what gets built, push back when a managed service already does what someone wants to hand-roll, and invent when no pattern exists. You'll also write real software, not just the infrastructure code underneath it. We run containerized workloads on AWS and GCP, defined in infrastructure as code, with Postgres underneath. Some of our early infrastructure was built quickly before anyone owned it full-time. Part of the job is untangling that while keeping the team moving.\nWhat You'll Do\nOwn our cloud infrastructure end to end: provisioning, security, reliability, and the infrastructure as code that defines it.\n\nStay ahead of the engineering roadmap and have infrastructure ready before features land, working directly with the founders on where the infrastructure goes next\n\nFind where developers are waiting and remove the wait, whether that's CI, deployment, or environment spin-up. A person sat waiting is the most expensive thing we run, so rational spend on velocity is always on the table\n\nRun the reliability practice: monitoring, logging, and alerting that fails loudly with a clear signal, and the response when it does\n\nLead large infrastructure builds and own our product security posture\n\nMake the build-vs-managed-service call, and hold the line when the simpler path is the right one\n\nRead and write Python well enough to see the infrastructure implications of what the team's building and catch problems before they land\n\nOwn AI model safety and the governance of agentic processes. The team leans on agents for repetitive work, and you make sure nothing unsupervised can act on production infrastructure\n\nHand capability to others, and support the team cross-functionally: build the tooling that lets engineers, GTM, the AI team, operations, and compliance do without you what today requires you\n\nKeep current across cloud and model providers so that when an engineer brings a new announcement, you have a credible answer\n\nWhat We’re Looking For\n5 to 10 years in infrastructure, SRE, DevOps, or platform engineering\n\nDeep, recent experience running production workloads on AWS or GCP, defined in infrastructure as code. A wide toolkit with one or two areas you go deep on. You won't know every service, and we expect you to learn fast\n\nPython you've written in anger, in or alongside application code\n\nPostgres in production, and containerized workloads running under an orchestration platform\n\nA security instinct: you think about vulnerabilities continuously and patch constantly\n\nEvidence that you've held down an infrastructure function alone or in a very small team\n\nWork you can point to where you found an ambiguous problem, designed the fix, and made other people faster as a result\n\nComfort saying no to senior people when the infrastructure demands it\n\nrBonus Points\nGCP experience, especially migrations or multi-cloud rollouts\n\nCloudWatch and GitHub Actions in your current stack\n\nTime in a technical support or application support role earlier in your career\n\nAn engineering career that started outside software\n\nWork in a niche domain where no standard tooling existed and you had to build your own\n\nDon't meet all of the above? We'd still love to hear from you. We're looking for exceptional people with unique skills and interests, and we know that great people have different backgrounds and skillsets. Classically trained or self-taught, we don't mind, as long as you learn fast.\nLearn More About Edra\nWatch our Series A announcement video\n\nRead our blog post from our launch\n\nLearn more about what we're building\n\nOur founders point of view on the market\n\nCompensation & Benefits\nEdra offers generous compensation and benefits in both New York & London:\nCompetitive base salary & meaningful equity\n\nTop tier health, dental, & vision plans:\nTop plans with 100% premium coverage in the US (and a One Medical membership)\n\nPrivate medical & dental coverage in the UK\n\nFlexible paid time off\n\nLunch provided in office most days, snacks & drinks too\n\nA stipend to set up your workspace\n\nA Few Details\nWe work together in person five days a week from our offices New York and London.\nEdra is an equal opportunity employer and we encourage applications from individuals of all backgrounds.
