Deployed Systems Engineer
Own on-prem agent deployment lifecycle including Helm charts, upgrades, security, and fleet management for self-hosted customers in regulated and air-gapped environments.
About the job
Responsibilities
- Own the on-prem lifecycle: helm charts, upgrades, the weekly release train, rollback paths.
- Drive chart convergence: bring diverged customer forks back onto one supported chart, with guardrails.
- Build structured onboarding (replicated or equivalent) so a new customer deploys in days, not weeks.
- Debug across the stack: temporal workflows, k8s init ordering, storage backends, auth-refresh pipelines.
- Own the security surface: CVE triage, patching, RCAs, bulletins.
- Co-own per-customer tool patching with the platform team.
- Dogfood Composio on your own deployment and support workflows.
Requirements
- Core infra engineering experience running software in environments you don't control: on-prem, VPC, air-gapped.
- Deep Kubernetes and Helm experience: chart authoring, init-job ordering, multi-environment releases.
- Fleet judgment: thinking in version skew, upgrade waves, and rollback paths across many instances.
- AI native: built with language models; opinions on agents, MCP, and where they break in real deployments.
- Linux comfort deep in the stack.
- Strong written communication for RCAs and security notes.
Nice-to-Haves
- Experience with Temporal, Postgres, cloud secret managers (GCP / AWS).
- Replicated or packaged self-hosted delivery (KOTS, airgap bundles).
- Compliance experience: SOC 2, Vanta-style programs, security questionnaires.
- Major open source contributions.
