About Vibecode

We're democratizing software creation. Our platform lets anyone describe an idea and instantly turn it into a working application—no coding required.

We're solving one of computing's fundamental challenges: bridging the gap between human intent and software execution. This requires breakthrough advances in AI reasoning, code generation, and user experience.

We've raised a large seed round from some of the best investors in the world including Alexis Ohanian (776), Arielle Zuckerberg and Cyan Banister (Long Journey), Ali Partovi and Suzanne Xie (Neo), and a whole host of amazing angels who are leaders at Google, Expo, OpenAI, etc.

About the Role

Want to be at the forefront of designing infrastructure for a mass-market consumer product? This role is for you.

We're looking for an Infrastructure Engineer to build the systems that power millions of AI-generated applications. You'll architect the platform that securely runs thousands of user-created apps simultaneously while maintaining blazing-fast performance and bulletproof reliability.

What you'll do:

• Design and implement secure sandbox environments for running untrusted AI-generated code at massive scale

• Build orchestration systems for stateless containers that can spin up 10,000+ apps concurrently

• Architect backend API services that handle real-time code generation, compilation, and deployment

• Create monitoring and observability systems for complex, multi-tenant application infrastructure

• Design auto-scaling systems that handle unpredictable traffic patterns from viral consumer apps

• Build security-first infrastructure that isolates user applications while maintaining performance

This isn't typical infrastructure work. You'll be solving novel problems around code execution at scale, building systems that don't exist yet, and creating infrastructure patterns for the AI-native era.

About You

• 4+ years of infrastructure/platform engineering experience with high-scale consumer products

• Deep expertise in containerization, orchestration (Kubernetes, Docker), and cloud platforms (AWS/GCP)

• Strong background in security, sandboxing, and multi-tenant architecture

• Experience with high-throughput API design and real-time systems

• Proficiency in Go, Rust, or similar systems programming languages

• Track record of building infrastructure that scales from thousands to millions of users

Bonus points if you have:

• Experience with code execution platforms, serverless computing, or developer tools

• Background in security sandboxing or container isolation technologies

• Understanding of AI/ML infrastructure and model serving at scale

Why Vibecode

Impact: Build the infrastructure that enables millions of people to create their first piece of software.

Technical Challenges: Solve unique problems at the intersection of AI, security, and massive scale that no one has tackled before.

Ownership: As a founding infrastructure engineer, you'll define our platform architecture and technical standards.

Growth: Significant equity and the opportunity to scale with a well-funded, fast-growing company.

Details

• Base Salary: $150,000 - $300,000 based on experience

• Equity: Significant equity package as a founding team member

• Location: In-person in San Francisco
