Job description

What You'll Do

The Infra Ops team is a new team in the Execute pillar of Weights & Biases infrastructure. Our mission is to keep our platform engineers building: we absorb, reroute, and automate incoming infrastructure requests — incidents, how-to questions, troubleshooting requests, and one-off asks — so that other pillars can focus on their deliverables. Build and release engineering is part of the Execute pillar — an organized, safe, and robust release process is the natural way to reduce post-release incidents, rollbacks, and toil. We work across the full W&B/CoreWeave infra stack — Kubernetes, Go, Terraform, ClickHouse, CircleCI, ArgoCD, Argo Rollouts, GitHub Actions, and others — running on GCP, AWS, and Azure, across multi-tenant SaaS, dedicated cloud, and on-prem deployments.

About The Role

We are seeking an Infrastructure Operations Engineer to be part of the first line of support for the infrastructure org. This is a support‑oriented, interrupt‑driven role: your days are shaped by incoming requests from our internal customers — Solutions Engineers, security, compliance, and product developers on other teams — rather than by a single long‑running project. With guidance from senior teammates, you'll triage and resolve many requests end to end, and help convert recurring issues into documentation and automation to prevent repeats. It's a fast way to learn the entire infrastructure surface, and a natural “landing pad” into infrastructure engineering. You'll write code most days — automation and scripts in Python, Bash, and Go — and take part in a first‑responder rotation covering the daily request peak in Slack and office hours. Your customers are primarily internal, though you'll occasionally work a customer escalation when our merchant‑support and SA teams need help.

In This Role, You Will

• Triage and resolve incoming infrastructure requests across Slack, Jira, and office hours — resolving well‑scoped ones yourself and escalating others with a clear, reproducible hand‑off.
• Troubleshoot problems across the stack — dig through logs, systems, and configuration to work out what is actually happening, asking for help when a problem runs deep.
• Write scripts and other automation in Python, Bash, and Go that reduce repetitive work.
• Help maintain and improve build and release pipelines, along with the runbooks and self‑service docs the team depends on.
• Partner and collaborate closely with our SA, security, and product engineers on one side, and with the other infra pillars on the other.
• Take part in a 24/7 escalation on‑call rotation.
• Document recurring how‑to and configuration questions so they can be answered once and reused.

Who You Are

• Experience: 2+ years in an infrastructure, SRE, operations, DevOps, or technical‑support role — or equivalent experience from a computer‑science (or related) degree, a bootcamp, or substantial personal/open‑source projects. We hire on demonstrated ability, not credentials.
• Scripting: Comfortable scripting in at least one of Python, Bash, or Go, and eager to use code to eliminate repetitive work.
• Systems foundation: Experience with Linux, containers, and at least one major public cloud (GCP, AWS, or Azure); infrastructure‑as‑code (Terraform) is a must.
• Able to drive well‑scoped problems to resolution, and to recognize when to pull in a more senior teammate.
• Strong written and verbal communication and a service mindset — you communicate effectively with our internal customers.
• A genuine desire to help people and unblock them — you take satisfaction in solving someone else’s problem, not just your own.
• Patience and composure under pressure, with the ability to stay positive and constructive.
• Comfortable with a support‑driven, high‑context‑switching, and sometimes repetitive workload — you can hold several small threads at once without losing the plot, and you drive the automation of recurring patterns.
• Aim to make yourself unnecessary — automate everything to free time for larger infrastructure projects at the edges of other infrastructure pillars. We have much ground to cover.

Preferred

• Exposure to CI/CD systems (GitHub Actions, Argo, or similar) and observability tooling (Datadog).
• Applied AI: Hands‑on experience designing, building, and maintaining complex, production‑grade AI agents — including continuous multi‑source data ingestion and indexing, and RAG / context augmentation.
• Hands‑on experience with production databases (PostgreSQL, ClickHouse, or similar).
• Prior internship or role on a platform, developer‑experience, or support‑engineering team.

Wondering if you’re a good fit?

• You love helping and unblocking other people, and feel the satisfaction of a support queue going quiet.
• You’re curious about turning repetitive toil into automation and self‑service rather than absorbing it forever.
• You’re eager to learn a large, real‑world infrastructure stack quickly.
