# Cloud Infrastructure Engineer

**Alchemy** · San Francisco

Salary: $135,000–$240,000 per year

Apply: https://jobs.ashbyhq.com/alchemy/42c849ce-8a9b-4015-92fb-b8dfad5c5d0d

## About Alchemy

Alchemy is a nanotechnology company based in Kitchener, Ontario with core operations in the automotive and defense sectors. 

Automotive - With the widespread adoption of ADAS systems in new vehicles, the cost of replacing a windshield in new vehicles has tripled to $1500+. We have developed a windshield protection film product line called ExoShield to help vehicle owners protect their windshields. Our ExoShield GT3 film is sold through 400+ aftermarket installers and car dealerships in 56 countries that carry and install it for vehicle owners. For Jeep Wrangler and Ford Bronco owners (google: broken windshield club), our ExoShield ULTRA DIY kits are available via our website and dropshipping partners. 

Defense - Over the last 3 years, we have been working with the Canadian Armed Forces to develop an infrared camouflage technology. We have received two contracts from CAF to develop our technology. Our solution has the ability to be integrated into the uniform directly (adding just 5-10g of weight vs. 600-18,000 kg of weight for other alternatives), has outperformed all existing NATO alternatives in multiple CAF field trials, and is receiving support from major elements of CAF for our next contract. This technology can also be adapted for other individual camouflage integrations (face paint and individual nettings) and for mobile camouflage applications (vehicle nettings and vehicle paints).

## About the role

**About the Role**

As an engineer in the Infrastructure department at Alchemy, you will design, deploy, and continuously improve the infrastructure powering our blockchain developer platform — serving 100+ chains, billions of daily requests, and over $150B in annual transactions.

The Infrastructure team provides the infrastructure, tooling, and expertise needed to allow Alchemy engineers to ship, scale, and operate high-quality products in a fast, safe, and cost-efficient manner.

**What You'll Do**

- Architect and operate scalable, self-healing infrastructure leveraging Kubernetes, Terraform, and cloud-native tools across multi-region deployments.

- Drive AI enablement across engineering — ensuring repos, tooling, and workflows are optimized for agentic development with tools like Claude Code, Cursor, and Codex.

- Build AI-powered infrastructure tooling and automation (e.g., automated K8s upgrades, IaC plan analysis, cost optimization advisors, MCP servers, n8n workflows).

- Build and maintain internal developer platform (IDP) capabilities for self-service deployments, observability, and reliability.

- Develop observability frameworks using Prometheus and Grafana for metrics, dashboards, and alerting.

- Lead incident management with blameless post-mortems; define and enforce SLIs, SLOs, and error budgets across services.

- Design and manage multi-cloud, multi-region network architecture — VPC design, IPAM, DNS (Cloudflare), cross-cloud connectivity, security groups, and edge-proxy/istio gateway configuration.

- Collaborate with security teams to embed compliance into infrastructure, including IaC scanning and runtime protection.

- Provide technical leadership and mentorship to elevate the team's operational capabilities.**What We're Looking For**

- 5+ years as an Infrastructure Engineer focused on reliability (SRE, Production Engineer, Platform Engineer).

- Experience driving company-wide reliability efforts, including SLO frameworks and error budget policies.

- Strong proficiency with observability stacks: OpenTelemetry, Prometheus/Grafana.

- Deep experience with cloud infrastructure (AWS/GCP), Kubernetes, and multi-region architectures.

- Skilled with Terraform, Helm, and GitOps workflows (e.g., ArgoCD) with an automation-first mindset.

- Experience leveraging agentic development tools (Claude Code, Cursor, Codex) and workflow automation (n8n) to accelerate IaC and build internal tooling is a strong plus.

- Solid networking fundamentals — VPC design, DNS, IPAM, security groups, cross-cloud connectivity, and service mesh (e.g., Istio) experience is a plus.

- Strong cross-functional communicator across SRE, security, and product engineering.

- Blockchain infrastructure, distributed systems, or high-throughput RPC experience — not required but a plus.**Benefits and Perks**
