Heretic Ventures is seeking an experienced Site Reliability Engineer to join an early stage generative AI business that Heretic Ventures is launching.

The ideal candidate has built and operationalized cloud infrastructure from the ground up, with monitoring, alerting, and deployment orchestration. You are entrepreneurial and adapts to a fast-changing environment with limited time and resources. You get excited about designing and taking full ownership of our SaaS architecture. In addition, you have worked with complex systems at scale. You understand how to plan for growth and traffic patterns, and you know to implement the right safety checks to mitigate the unexpected. Working with both web app and AI engineering teams, this role will help define and implement the engineering tooling and processes needed to ensure our platform is performant, stable and scalable.

This is a unique opportunity to help build a billion-dollar company from the ground up while learning from successful repeat entrepreneurs and a team of powerful and experienced mentors and advisors. 

This is a hybrid role with the expectation of partial in-person work in our sunny Presidio, SF office. The position is compensated with salary, benefits, and equity.
