Infrastructure Ops Engineer

Remote, Worldwide

Infrastructure Ops engineers are our human to metal interface. They manage the foundation that everything else is built on, and provide the tools to support our Platform team and Fly .io end customers. This is one of the most important roles in the company.

This role is a good fit for you if:

You care about users. You can empathize with the problems they encounter using our products and build solutions that treat reliability as a feature.

You’re excited about building tools and systems to safely operate a fleet of bare metal servers that outnumber your team 1000:1.

You like working with all the weird Linux things, from eBPF to LVM2 to WireGuard to policy routing.

You’re comfortable building things that are imperfect and solve the problems we’re facing right now; our infrastructure is evolving rapidly as we scale.

You want to help the team develop green-field automation, infrastructure-as-code, observability and alerting work; we’re up to our eyeballs in fun infra projects.

You know you’re succeeding in this job if:

You bring experience, pragmatism, composure, and positivity to interactions with teams outside of the Infra Ops organization.

You get that code doesn’t matter...
