Jobs at Blitzy
Amazon Web Services (AWS)
Kubernetes
PythonThe Role
As a Senior Site Reliability Engineer at Blitzy's Pune headquarters, you will be the backbone of our platform's reliability, scalability, and operational excellence. You'll work at the intersection of software engineering and infrastructure, ensuring our AI-powered development platform remains highly available and performant as we scale rapidly. This is a high-impact, hands-on role for an engineer who thrives in a fast-moving environment and takes deep ownership of the systems they build.
What Success Looks Like
- In 30 days: You have a deep understanding of Blitzy's infrastructure architecture, have identified key reliability risks, and are actively contributing to on-call rotations.
- In 90 days: You have shipped meaningful improvements to observability, incident response workflows, and deployment pipelines that measurably reduce MTTR and increase system uptime.
- In 6 months: You have driven at least one major reliability initiative from inception to production, established SLO/SLA frameworks for critical services, and are a trusted technical voice shaping our infrastructure roadmap.
Areas of Ownership
- Design, build, and operate scalable, fault-tolerant infrastructure across cloud environments (AWS, GCP, or Azure).
- Define and enforce SLOs, SLAs, and error budgets; lead blameless postmortems and drive systemic improvements.
- Build and maintain robust CI/CD pipelines, release automation, and deployment infrastructure.
- Own observability: design and maintain logging, metrics, tracing, and alerting stacks (e.g., Prometheus, Grafana, Datadog, OpenTelemetry).
- Partner closely with software engineering teams to embed reliability practices into the development lifecycle.
- Drive capacity planning, performance benchmarking, and cost optimization across our infrastructure.
- Champion security best practices within the infrastructure and deployment layers.
Required Experience
- 5+ years of experience in Site Reliability Engineering, DevOps, or Infrastructure Engineering roles.
- Strong proficiency in at least one major cloud platform (AWS preferred); experience with Kubernetes and container orchestration at scale.
- Hands-on experience with infrastructure-as-code tools (Terraform, Pulumi, or equivalent).
- Proven track record designing and maintaining high-availability, distributed systems.
- Deep expertise in observability tooling, incident management, and on-call practices.
- Strong scripting and automation skills (Python, Go, Bash, or similar).
- Excellent communication skills with the ability to collaborate across engineering teams and present technical findings to leadership.
What Makes You Stand Out
- Experience supporting AI/ML workloads or GPU-accelerated infrastructure.
- Prior experience in a high-growth startup environment where you wore multiple hats.
- Familiarity with eBPF, service mesh technologies (Istio, Linkerd), or advanced networking.
- Contributions to open-source SRE/DevOps tooling or communities.
- Experience building global, multi-region infrastructure with strict latency and availability requirements.
What Makes This Role Different
You won't be maintaining legacy systems or fighting fires in a sprawling monolith. At Blitzy, you're building reliability into a greenfield AI platform that is redefining how the world creates software. You'll have direct influence over architectural decisions, work side-by-side with world-class engineers, and see the tangible impact of your work as we scale to serve Fortune 500 customers. As a founding member of the Pune SRE team, you'll help shape the culture and technical standards of a team that will grow with the company.
Kubernetes
DockerThe Role
As a DevOps Engineer at Blitzy's Pune headquarters, you'll build and operate the infrastructure that powers our AI agents and the applications they produce. You'll work at the intersection of cloud infrastructure, developer tooling, and AI-native systems — designing the pipelines, clusters, and automation that allow Blitzy to ship production-ready software at machine speed. This is a hands-on, high-ownership role for an engineer who moves fast, automates everything, and cares deeply about developer experience and system reliability.
What Success Looks Like
- Kubernetes clusters are running reliably at scale, with clear deployment standards, Helm-managed releases, and minimal manual intervention required from engineering teams.
- CI/CD pipelines are fast, consistent, and trusted — developers ship confidently knowing the automation handles the rest.
- Observability is comprehensive: alerts are actionable, dashboards are meaningful, and incidents are resolved faster because the right data is always available.
- Infrastructure provisioning is fully automated — no snowflake environments, no manual setup, everything reproducible through code.
- AI agent orchestration infrastructure is stable and scalable, directly enabling Blitzy's core product to deliver for enterprise customers.
- Engineering teams notice the difference — developer productivity is measurably higher and infrastructure is no longer a bottleneck to shipping.
Areas of Ownership
- Build and manage Kubernetes clusters supporting AI agent workloads and application deployment at scale.
- Design, implement, and maintain CI/CD pipelines for application and AI service delivery — ensuring speed, reliability, and repeatability.
- Automate infrastructure provisioning and dynamic scaling using Python scripts and Terraform IaC.
- Deploy and manage applications using Helm charts; own packaging standards and release automation.
- Build and maintain comprehensive observability stacks — alerting, distributed tracing, metrics, and logging (e.g., Prometheus, Grafana, Datadog, OpenTelemetry).
- Monitor and maintain production services and APIs; own incident response and drive blameless postmortems.
- Build dedicated infrastructure for AI agent orchestration and management, enabling Blitzy's core autonomous development capabilities.
- Collaborate with engineering teams on deployment strategies and continuously improve developer experience through tooling and automation.
Required Experience
- 5–8 years of DevOps, infrastructure, or platform engineering experience.
- Python proficiency for scripting, automation, and infrastructure tooling.
- Deep Kubernetes expertise — cluster management, workload deployment, scaling, and troubleshooting.
- Hands-on Helm experience for application packaging and release management.
- Proven ability to design and implement CI/CD pipelines across complex, multi-service environments.
- Practical experience with at least one major cloud platform (AWS, GCP, or Azure).
- Terraform proficiency for infrastructure-as-code provisioning and state management.
- Strong Linux administration and containerization fundamentals (Docker, OCI).
What Makes You Stand Out
- CKA (Certified Kubernetes Administrator) certification.
- Familiarity with MLOps tooling such as MLflow, Kubeflow, or similar platforms for AI/ML workload management.
- Experience with microservices architecture and distributed systems design.
- Knowledge of API gateways and service mesh technologies (Istio, Linkerd, or equivalent).
- Prior experience in a high-growth AI or software startup where you moved fast and owned broadly.
- Track record of meaningfully improving developer productivity through platform and tooling investments.
What Makes This Role Different
Most DevOps roles have you maintaining existing systems. At Blitzy, you're building the infrastructure layer for a platform that autonomously writes enterprise software — a genuinely new category of product. You'll work on AI agent orchestration, Kubernetes at scale, and developer tooling that is directly responsible for how fast Blitzy delivers value to Fortune 500 customers. As an early member of the Pune engineering team, you'll have outsized influence over our infrastructure culture and technical direction. High performers are eligible for company equity — giving you real ownership in what you build.
