Virtue AI sets the standard for advanced AI security platforms. Built on decades of foundational and award-winning research in AI security, its AI-native architecture unifies automated red-teaming, real-time multimodal guardrails, and systematic governance for enterprise apps and agents. Deploy in minutes—across any environment—to keep your AI protected and compliant. We are a well-funded, early-stage startup founded by industry veterans, and we're looking for passionate builders to join our core team.
As a Cloud / Platform Engineer, you will own how Virtue AI is deployed, scaled, and operated in customer environments. Your work directly enables one-click bring-up of our platform on AWS and GCP, from PoC to production.
You will:
Design and maintain one-click deployment workflows for Virtue AI on AWS and GCP
Build and operate production-grade cloud infrastructure for AI inference, agents, and guardrails
Own IaC (Terraform / Pulumi) for repeatable, auditable customer deployments
Package our services into secure, customer-ready deployment units (Docker, Helm, Marketplace images)
Enable GPU-backed inference (H100/A100/L4, etc.) with correct autoscaling, scheduling, and cost controls
Implement secure networking (VPCs, IAM, service accounts, private endpoints, firewalling)
Collaborate with backend, ML, and research teams to align infrastructure with model behavior, evals, and throughput needs
Debug and unblock customer deployments across cloud, hybrid, and restricted environments
Improve reliability, observability, and rollout safety (logging, metrics, health checks, rollback)
You’re opinionated about production infrastructure, hate snowflake deployments, and believe customers should be able to deploy complex AI systems without talking to an SRE for two weeks.
Bachelor’s degree or higher in CS, CE, EE, or related field
Strong experience deploying production systems on AWS and/or GCP
Deep hands-on experience with:
Docker and containerized workloads
Terraform or Pulumi
Kubernetes (EKS, GKE, or equivalent)
Experience designing secure cloud architectures (IAM, VPCs, private networking)
Experience deploying GPU workloads in the cloud
Strong scripting skills (Python, Bash, or Go)
Ability to own infrastructure end-to-end and support real customers
Experience in packaging products for:
AWS Marketplace
GCP Marketplace
Helm-based enterprise installs
Experience deploying ML / LLM inference systems at scale
Familiarity with vLLM, sglang, Triton, or similar inference stacks
Experience with hybrid or on-prem deployments
Startup experience: you move fast, document what matters, and fix things properly
Competitive salary + meaningful equity
