Requirements
Requirements
  • 5+ years in a customer-facing technical role — Solutions Architect, Customer Engineer, SRE, or Senior Support Engineer at an infra company. You've owned strategic accounts before.
  • Deep cloud-native chops: Kubernetes, service mesh (Istio, Cilium), API gateways and proxies (Envoy or similar). You've debugged these in production, not just deployed them.
  • 1+ years hands-on with AI/ML infrastructure — LLMs, agentic frameworks, model-serving platforms, inference gateways. You don't need to have trained a model, but you should understand how production AI traffic actually flows.
  • Scripting/programming comfort in Go, Python, or Bash. You'll write diagnostics, automation, and reference code.
  • The ability to talk to a platform engineer at 10am and a CTO at 2pm without changing who you are.
Job Responsibility
Job Responsibility
  • Architect their AI infrastructure layer. LLM gateways with auth, rate limiting, and observability. Agent-to-agent communication patterns. Securing inference traffic across multi-cloud environments. Most of our customers haven't done this before — you have, or you'll figure it out alongside the engineering team and write the playbook everyone else uses.
  • Run technical issue resolution end-to-end. When something escalates, you partner with Support and Engineering, drive root cause, and often dig in directly. We expect Principal-level architects to get their hands dirty when it accelerates the outcome — reading code, reproducing issues, writing reference implementations.
  • Drive deep adoption. You'll consult on performance tuning, deployment patterns, and operational best practices. You'll spot new use cases inside the account and bring them forward.
  • Influence the product. You sit closer to real production AI workloads than almost anyone in the company. Product Management and Engineering treat your feedback as a primary signal for the roadmap.
  • Partner with the account team (CSM, AE, SE) on risk, renewal, and expansion — but you're the technical voice in the room, not the commercial one.
