Staff Infrastructure Engineer

Job Description

ZeroTier’s leads the world in next-generation connectivity and cybersecurity. Our platform provides highly secure, peer-to-peer virtual networks, relied upon by millions of users and businesses - from individual users and startups to mid-scale enterprises and Fortune 500 companies. We’re backed by awesome investors including Battery Ventures, Bonfire Ventures, and Anorak Ventures.

The Role
We’re looking for a Staff Infrastructure Engineer to help lead the design, reliability, and scalability of our cloud systems and internal platforms. This is a hands-on, high-leverage role where you’ll go beyond infrastructure automation to also build production-grade software and services — primarily in Go — that power ZeroTier’s global control plane. If you bring a strong SRE customer-centric mindset, deep GCP expertise, and enjoy building both infrastructure and the software that runs on it, you’ll thrive here.


What You'll Do
  • Design, build, and maintain scalable infrastructure using tools like GCP, Kubernetes, and Terraform
  • Develop and operate distributed platform services and backend components in Go
  • Build automation and internal tools to support deployment, scaling, and monitoring
  • Operate and optimize stateful infrastructure like Redis, GCP Pub/Sub, and PostgreSQL
  • Improve observability across our systems - metrics, logging, tracing, and alerting
  • Lead or support high-severity incident response, postmortems, and system hardening efforts
  • Participate in a shared on-call rotation and contribute to a culture of operational excellence
  • Collaborate with engineers across teams to design reliable, observable systems from the start
  • Mentor peers and early-career engineers on infrastructure, architecture, and Go development best practices


    • What We’re Looking For
  • Senior-to-staff-level experience in infrastructure engineering, platform engineering, or SRE
  • Production experience with Go: not just scripting or tooling, but software development
  • Deep experience with GCP, Terraform, and Kubernetes in production environments
  • Experience working with event-driven architectures (e.g., GCP Pub/Sub, Kafka, or similar)
  • Strong understanding of observability, automation, and reliability engineering principles
  • Ability to design and build internal platforms or backend systems that support developer velocity
  • Familiarity with CI/CD pipelines, secret management, and production deployment strategies
  • Excellent communication, collaboration, and cross-functional leadership skills
  • A track record of owning large-scale projects or systems end-to-end
  • Experience in startup or fast-paced environments is a strong plus


    • Benefits
  • Hybrid office / remote work environment
  • High growth equity compensation package
  • Generous employer-paid health insurance, including preventative dental care for adults
  • 401K Plan
  • Flexible PTO policy
  • Flexible work hours (subject to management approval)
  • Career Enhancement Funds
  • Employee Referral Bonus
