Job summary

Foundry Robotics is building an AI-native robotics manufacturing platform focused on deploying advanced assembly and production capabilities for robotics companies. The role involves running production infrastructure on AWS, Kubernetes, and edge devices, with a unique blend of traditional software platforms, robotics, and AI infrastructure.

The position requires 3+ years of hands-on Kubernetes experience, Terraform/GitOps proficiency, strong networking, and comfort with Go or Python.

Qualifications

• 3+ years running production infrastructure with hands-on Kubernetes.
• Fluent in Terraform and GitOps. You have worked in infrastructure CI/CD where merge means apply and you know how to make that safe.
• Solid networking fundamentals: VPCs, routing, VPN, DNS, TLS, overlay networks, and the ability to debug a routing problem with a packet capture.
• Comfortable in Go or Python for tooling and glue, and able to read production service code well enough to debug it.
• Experience operating an observability stack and a track record of making alerts trustworthy.
• Security-minded by default: least-privilege access, no public endpoints, secrets from config, and the reflexes to catch a committed credential.

Responsibilities

• You will manage the infrastructure that our services, factory-floor software, and ML training run on: AWS, Kubernetes, the network boundary between them, the deployment pipeline, GPU workload scheduling, and the monitoring that tells us when something is wrong.
• You will work across containerized software platforms, robotics, networking and AI infrastructure to support real hardware and orchestrate the manufacturing process and robot operation.
• You will move between infrastructure as code, cluster operations, GPU scheduling, and edge-device support in the same week.
