Our customers include many of the top firms in the industry. Some of these companies are running billion dollar construction projects on workflows that still look like it's 1985.\nConstruction is 10% of GDP and still massively underserved by software. We are changing that.\nWe raised a $14M Series A from leading construction tech investors and are entering our next phase of growth. We are building a set of AI native products that will define how this industry operates.\nAbout the Engineering Org\nWe're in the age of Ai and the role of the engineer is rapidly changing. We're aware. We're being very intentional of ensuring we adapt with it. We are fostering an engineering culture of growth and development. We strongly emphasize care of craft and winning together. Our core values are:\nEveryone operates like an owner\n\nFind a way\n\nWe win together\n\nThat being said the whole company still works really hard! This is something that you should read and internalize. This might not be the place for everyone.\nAbout the Role\nWe're looking for a platform engineer to own the infrastructure that powers Rebar. We have numerous services running on EKS as well as on AWS managed services. That being said, there is some organization work that needs to be done as we continue to scale: hardening our system given our SOC2 Type II requirements, environment partitioning, consolidating simpler lambdas into our monolithic Golang service. This role will require determination and a good attitude and mentorship of the rest of the team.\nI cannot state this enough - I will ensure that you leave as a better and more experienced engineer than when you joined. You will get insights into building a SOC2 Type II compliant org, scaling a company from hundreds of companies, to thousands, and watching traffic scale accordingly.\nResponsibilities\nDrive performance across our entire infra stack and application layer\n\nOwn SOC 2 infrastructure controls\n\nTake observability fleet-wide\n\nFinish environment partitioning\n\nOptimize cloud spend\n\nOwn the cloud footprint\n\nOwn production operations\n\nWhat We’re Looking For\nAt a high level, we’re looking for the technical expertise mixed with the passion and spark. You should actually give a shit. You should be excited to walk me through how you’re going to run through a data migration without a single packet getting dropped or customer firing off an Intercom ticket.\nBut more specifically, here are some required qualifications.\nQualifications\n6+ years in platform, infrastructure, or DevOps engineering\n\nAWS experience (ECS/Fargate, lambdas, DDB, SQS, Cognito)\n\nKubernetes experience\n\nStrong Terraform and/or AWS CDK experience in production environments\n\nTrack record designing and maintaining CI/CD pipelines (GitHub Actions preferred)\n\nExperience with containerization - Docker, ECR, multi-stage builds, image optimization\n\nExperience operating distributed systems in production\n\nComfort with Go (and/or Python) (our backend and infrastructure tooling are Python-heavy)\n\nNice to Have\nExperience with real-time systems, WebSocket infrastructure, or event-driven architecture\n\nModal + GPU familiarity\nWe will have a corresponding ML infra engineer, but familiarity with GPU scheduling and orchestration is a plus\n\nComfort with Postgres\nWe’re steadily consolidating on utilizing Postgres for much of our OLTP (and sadly some of our OLAP layer atm)\n\nExperience with Temporal (or Dagster or another workflow orchestration tool)\n\nWorked in a small, high-ownership engineering team where you set the standard rather than inherited one.\n\nCompensation and Benefits\nSalary: Competitive base salary\n\nEquity: Meaningful equity package, commensurate with experience\n\nBenefits: Comprehensive medical, dental, and vision coverage\n\nPerks:\nagentic tooling budget\n\nlunches provided, dinners provided (after a set time)\n\ngreat culture and office banter","description_format":"text","description_chars":4107,"description_truncated":false,"requirements":{"experience_years_min":null,"management_years_min":null,"team_size_min":null,"manages_managers":false,"education":null,"security_clearance":false,"languages":[]},"benefits":["Equity"],"hiring_locations":[],"hiring_excludes":[],"relocation_offered":false,"industries":["B2B Commerce","Construction Management Software"],"lifecycle":[{"event":"open","at":"2026-10-04T13:34:14Z"}],"visa":[],"liveness":{"score":73,"band":"hot","label":"Hiring now","p_open":1,"p_active":0.816,"p_room":0.9,"age_days":12,"expected_fill_days":22,"reasons":["conf:0","velocity","win:mid"],"computed_at":"2026-10-17T05:46:00Z"},"pay":null,"html_url":"https://alion.io/job/rebar-software-engineer-platform-infrastructure","json_url":"https://alion.io/job/rebar-software-engineer-platform-infrastructure.json","meta":{"generated_at":"2026-10-17T15:18:45Z","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":20679,"day_limit":null,"remaining_today":null,"minute_limit":300,"resets_at":"2026-10-18T00:00:00Z"}},"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":7134},"rest":"https://alion.io/mcp/rest/get_company?id=7134"},"human":"https://alion.io/catalog?offer=company.slices&for=job%2Frebar-software-engineer-platform-infrastructure"},{"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%2Frebar-software-engineer-platform-infrastructure"},{"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%2Frebar-software-engineer-platform-infrastructure"},{"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/rebar-software-engineer-platform-infrastructure\", \"note\": \"what you need it for\"}"},"human":"https://alion.io/catalog?offer=company.verify&for=job%2Frebar-software-engineer-platform-infrastructure"}]}
