Full job description
About Omnistrate Omnistrate helps software and AI companies deliver their products as enterprise-grade, fully managed services across public clouds, private clouds, and customer VPCs—without the complexity of building and operating the underlying infrastructure themselves. Our vision: We help modern software and AI companies deliver their products across public cloud, private cloud, customer VPCs, and increasingly complex enterprise environments without having to build and maintain the underlying deployment and operations infrastructure themselves. Founded by Kamal Gupta and Alok Nikhil, who previously built and led large-scale cloud infrastructure, Omnistrate was born from firsthand experience with the challenges of deploying and operating software in customer-controlled environments. Our mission is to help the next generation of software and AI companies build the next MongoDB Atlas, Snowflake, and Databricks by handling the infrastructure complexity behind the scenes. We're a small, highly technical team entering our next stage of growth, where every hire has a meaningful impact on the company's trajectory. Joining Omnistrate means working directly with the founders and sales leadership to shape our positioning, identify the strongest markets, and build a repeatable enterprise go-to-market motion from the ground up. Role Overview We're looking for Senior Platform Engineers to design and build our core multi-cloud abstractions. You'll work directly on production infrastructure control planes while partnering with customers to help launch and scale their managed service offerings. Key Responsibilities
- Architect and build scalable infrastructure automation and multi-cloud orchestration control planes
- Automate full service lifecycles—provisioning, scaling, self-healing, and maintenance—across major cloud providers
- Work closely with technical leads at enterprise customers to understand their requirements and engineer custom infrastructure solutions
Required Skills & Experience
- 6+ years of hands-on experience in backend engineering, platform engineering, or distributed systems
- Production experience with Infrastructure-as-Code (Terraform, Helm), infrastructure automation, and robust CI/CD pipelines
- Strong communication skills and experience working directly with customers on B2B products
- Strong coding proficiency in Go (or equivalent systems languages) for building internal tools and platform services
- Strong fundamentals in distributed systems design, Kubernetes, and cloud-native architectures
- Pragmatic problem-solver who thrives in fast-paced environments and communicates clearly with both team members and customers
- Bachelor's or Master's in Computer Science or related field preferred
Desired Qualifications
- Strong background in cloud infrastructure engineering and architecture
- Hands-on experience with cloud security architecture, IAM, vulnerability management, and compliance frameworks
- Deep knowledge of Kubernetes internals, operator patterns, and container orchestration at scale
Interview Process
- Phone Screen: An informal conversation to introduce the role, discuss your past projects, and answer questions to ensure a mutual fit. May include a brief live coding exercise.
- Technical Interviews: An open-ended system design discussion along with an additional hands-on programming session.
- Background & Culture Interview: A deep dive into your background, accomplishments, and working style to discuss how you handle real-world engineering scenarios.
