You understand what it takes to keep production ML and data workloads fast, observable, and resilient - from GPU-backed training and inference clusters to the pipelines that connect them to real-world industrial environments.\nThis role is ideal for candidates who want deep infrastructure ownership at a company where uptime, latency, and reliability directly affect physical operations - not just software. You'll partner closely with AI, data, and product engineering teams to make sure the systems they build can actually run in production, safely and at scale.\nWhat You'll Do\nOwn and evolve Nexxa's core infrastructure - compute, networking, storage, and deployment systems - end-to-end\n\nDesign and operate CI/CD pipelines that support fast, safe iteration across AI, data, and product engineering teams\n\nBuild and maintain infrastructure-as-code (e.g., Terraform, Pulumi) for reproducible, auditable environments across cloud and on-prem/edge deployments\n\nArchitect and manage Kubernetes-based platforms for training, inference, and application workloads, including GPU scheduling and autoscaling\n\nPartner with data and AI teams to support the infrastructure behind:\nData warehouses and lakehouse architectures (e.g., Snowflake, BigQuery, Redshift, Databricks)\n\nFeature stores, embedding indices, and retrieval pipelines\n\nModel training, evaluation, and serving infrastructure\n\nDefine and drive observability practices - metrics, logging, tracing, and alerting - across distributed systems\n\nEstablish and enforce reliability practices: SLOs/SLIs, incident response, postmortems, and on-call rotations\n\nDesign for security and compliance across cloud infrastructure, secrets management, and access control, particularly relevant to industrial and legacy-environment integrations\n\nMake pragmatic tradeoffs across cost, latency, reliability, and developer velocity\n\nCollaborate with engineering leadership to define infrastructure roadmap and platform strategy\n\nMentor engineers on infrastructure best practices and raise the bar for operational excellence across the org\n\nRequired Qualifications\n6+ years of experience in DevOps, Site Reliability Engineering, Platform Engineering, or infrastructure-focused software engineering roles\n\nDeep hands-on experience with:\nCloud platforms (AWS, GCP, or Azure) at production scale\n\nKubernetes in production, including GPU workload scheduling\n\nInfrastructure-as-code tooling (Terraform, Pulumi, or equivalent)\n\nCI/CD systems (e.g., GitHub Actions, GitLab CI, CircleCI, Jenkins, ArgoCD)\n\nStrong track record designing and operating observability stacks (e.g., Prometheus, Grafana, Datadog, OpenTelemetry)\n\nExperience supporting ML/AI infrastructure - training clusters, model serving, data pipelines - a strong plus\n\nExcellent scripting/programming skills (Python, Go, or Bash) for automation and tooling\n\nProven ability to independently scope and lead infrastructure projects from design through production rollout\n\nStrong incident management instincts - you can lead through an outage calmly and drive toward root cause\n\nPreferred Qualifications\nExperience operating infrastructure that bridges cloud and edge/on-prem environments, especially in industrial or manufacturing contexts\n\nFamiliarity with data warehouse/lakehouse platforms (Snowflake, BigQuery, Redshift, Databricks)\n\nExperience with service mesh, zero-trust networking, or compliance frameworks relevant to industrial/critical infrastructure (e.g., SOC 2, IEC 62443)\n\nHistory of building internal developer platforms or self-service infrastructure tooling\n\nExperience scaling infrastructure teams or setting technical direction at a Staff level\n\nWhat Success Looks Like\nYou can own ambiguous, high-stakes infrastructure problems end-to-end\n\nSystems you build stay reliable as usage and scale grow - you design for the next order of magnitude, not just today\n\nYou bring strong technical judgment on tradeoffs between reliability, cost, and speed\n\nYou raise the bar for operational rigor and engineering discipline across the team\n\nYou help define what's next for the platform, not just execute what's known\n\nWhy Join Nexxa.ai?\nInnovative Environment: Play a critical role in transforming heavy industries through groundbreaking AI and automation technologies\n\nCollaborative Culture: Be part of a team that values innovation, discipline, and continuous improvement\n\nProfessional Growth: Benefit from significant opportunities for career development and advancement\n\nCompetitive Compensation: Enjoy a comprehensive salary and equity package reflective of your expertise and contributions\n\nIf you're passionate about building the infrastructure that powers advanced AI solutions in the real world, we'd love to connect.","description_format":"text","description_chars":5303,"description_truncated":false,"requirements":{"experience_years_min":6,"management_years_min":null,"team_size_min":null,"manages_managers":false,"education":null,"security_clearance":false,"languages":[]},"benefits":["Equity"],"hiring_locations":[{"name":"United States","iso":"US","kind":"country"}],"hiring_excludes":[],"relocation_offered":false,"industries":["AI Agents","Manufacturing & Industrial Software"],"lifecycle":[{"event":"open","at":"2026-09-11T07:59:23Z"}],"visa":[],"liveness":{"score":37,"band":"fade","label":"Fading","p_open":1,"p_active":0.837,"p_room":0.44,"age_days":60,"expected_fill_days":44,"reasons":["conf:3","win:tail","crowd:"],"computed_at":"2026-10-27T05:46:45Z"},"pay":null,"html_url":"https://alion.io/job/nexxa-staff-devops-engineer-2","json_url":"https://alion.io/job/nexxa-staff-devops-engineer-2.json","meta":{"generated_at":"2026-10-27T15:01:01Z","cache_seconds":300,"methodology":"https://alion.io/methodology","terms":"https://alion.io/terms","contact":"https://alion.io/contact","api":"https://alion.io/developers","about":"Alion is a live layer of people, companies and AI agents: who they are, whether they are real and active right now, what they do and how to work with them, readable by people and by agents and paid per call.","catalog":"https://alion.io/catalog.json","usage":{"tier":"crawler_verified","counted_by":"address","units_charged":1,"used_today":3775,"day_limit":null,"remaining_today":null,"minute_limit":300,"resets_at":"2026-10-28T00:00:00Z"}},"offers":[{"id":"company.slices","title":"One company in depth, by slice","status":"live","price":{"credits":0.02,"usd":0.002,"plus_per_slice":{"credits":0.05,"usd":0.005}},"unit":"per company, plus each slice with data","note":"the employer in depth","call":{"mcp_tool":"get_company","arguments":{"id":678767},"rest":"https://alion.io/mcp/rest/get_company?id=678767"},"human":"https://alion.io/catalog?offer=company.slices&for=job%2Fnexxa-staff-devops-engineer-2"},{"id":"market.stats","title":"A market slice: pay, demand and time to fill","status":"live","price":{"credits":1,"usd":0.1},"unit":"per slice","note":"pay, demand and time to fill for this role and place","call":{"mcp_tool":"market_stats"},"human":"https://alion.io/catalog?offer=market.stats&for=job%2Fnexxa-staff-devops-engineer-2"},{"id":"job.search","title":"Open jobs by role, technology, place, pay and visa","status":"live","price":{"credits":0.02,"usd":0.002},"unit":"per posting in a list","note":"similar open postings","call":{"mcp_tool":"search_jobs"},"human":"https://alion.io/catalog?offer=job.search&for=job%2Fnexxa-staff-devops-engineer-2"},{"id":"company.verify","title":"Is this company real and active right now","status":"pilot","price":null,"unit":"per company","request":{"url":"https://alion.io/catalog/request","method":"POST","body":"{\"offer\": \"company.verify\", \"for\": \"job/nexxa-staff-devops-engineer-2\", \"note\": \"what you need it for\"}"},"human":"https://alion.io/catalog?offer=company.verify&for=job%2Fnexxa-staff-devops-engineer-2"}]}
