Infrastructure Engineer

Job description

What MatX Is Building MatX is designing a custom chip. Our engineering team works in Rust and SystemVerilog, builds with a hermetic build system, and runs compute-intensive verification workloads on a managed cluster. The infrastructure that supports this work — CI/CD, compute fleet, shared filesystems, developer environments — is what you'd own. This is a small team. There's no ops org, no ticket queue, no on-call rotation. You'd work directly with engineers who'll tell you "X is broken" or "we need Y" and you'd figure out how to make it happen. You'd use the same tools they do — git, SSH, the same VMs. The current infrastructure was built by engineers who needed it and moved on to other things; you'd inherit it, clean it up, and make it yours and improve it. We use AI-assisted development tools extensively as a force multiplier. You should be comfortable with that or willing to learn. What You'll Do Here: - You’d be the person who makes sure 20+ engineers are set up for success to do their work without thinking about infrastructure. Concretely: - Compute & Cluster, Storage Management - Manage an HPC-style compute cluster on GCP — job scheduling, autoscaling, node provisioning - P...
