## Description

We're looking for a Senior to Staff-level Cloud Infrastructure Engineer to own the infrastructure platform that powers Restate across open source, self-hosted deployments, multi-tenant SaaS, and Bring Your Own Cloud environments.

This is a high-ownership role at the intersection of cloud infrastructure, distributed systems, and platform engineering.

What you'll own

 * The infrastructure and control plane powering Restate Cloud.
 * The systems enabling BYOC and self-hosted deployments.
 * Reliability, observability, and operational excellence across the fleet.
 * Automation and tooling that allow the platform to scale efficiently.
 * Production operations and participation in the cloud on-call rotation.

You will operate across networking, storage, Kubernetes, cloud APIs, observability, and infrastructure automation while owning systems end-to-end from design through production., Restate reimagines durable execution as a lightweight, self-contained runtime:

 * Single Rust binary deployment
 * Custom storage layer
 * Low-latency orchestration engine
 * Integrated observability
 * No external database dependency

Work on systems where reliability matters

Restate powers workloads running inside Fortune 500 enterprises, financial institutions, and AI-native startups building production-grade agents and workflows.

The systems you build operate in environments where correctness and operational simplicity are mission critical.

Work with exceptional engineers

You'll work directly with engineers who built foundational distributed systems at global scale, including creators of Apache Flink and leaders from Meta's messaging infrastructure teams., * You prefer working on runtime internals rather than cloud infrastructure.

 * You prefer architecture and review work over hands-on ownership.
 * You are uncomfortable operating production infrastructure or participating in on-call rotations.
