Andromeda Cluster was founded by Nat Friedman and Daniel Gross to give early-stage startups access to the kind of scaled AI infrastructure once reserved only for hyperscalers. We began with a single managed cluster — but it filled almost instantly. Today, Andromeda works with leading AI labs, data centers, and cloud providers to deliver compute when and where it’s needed most. Our long-term vision is to build the liquidity layer for global AI compute. We are expanding to new frontiers to find the brightest that work in AI infrastructure, research and engineering.

Job Description
Role Description
As an Infrastructure Product Engineer, you will play a pivotal role in building the backbone of Andromeda’s platform. You'll transform complex, real-world infrastructure challenges into scalable product capabilities that benefit our customers.
- Design and develop core platform components, including infrastructure orchestration, provisioning, and lifecycle management solutions.
- Build robust APIs, services, and control planes that abstract over diverse infrastructure types (VMs, Kubernetes, bare metal, schedulers).
- Translate customer usage patterns into product requirements, delivering impactful features and improvements.
- Create automation and internal tooling to eliminate manual or ad-hoc operational work.
- Enhance reliability, performance, and observability at the platform level, emphasizing durable improvements over quick fixes.
- Collaborate with peer teams to define clear ownership boundaries between platform capabilities and customer-specific solutions.
- Write clean, maintainable, and well-documented code with a focus on long-term sustainability.
- Participate in technical design discussions and contribute to the architectural evolution of our platform.
Qualifications
- 5+ years of experience in Infrastructure, Platform, or Backend Engineering roles.
- Strong systems fundamentals: deep understanding of Linux, networking, storage, and distributed systems.
- Proven expertise with Kubernetes, VMs, or bare-metal environments.
- Advanced software engineering skills; capable of building production-grade APIs and services (Python, Go, or similar).
- Extensive experience with infrastructure as code and automation tools (Terraform, Ansible, Helm, etc.).
- Demonstrated ability to navigate ambiguity and distill complex problems into clear, maintainable abstractions.
- Product-focused mindset: care about interfaces, defaults, reliability, and sustainable operations.
- Excellent written and verbal communication skills; effective collaborator across engineering and product functions.
Requirements
- Hands-on experience with GPU or AI infrastructure.
- Experience with control-plane or orchestration systems.
- Background spanning both infrastructure and application/backend engineering.
- Experience architecting multi-tenant systems.
- Strong skills in technical writing and design documentation.
- Early-stage startup experience.
Benefits
This is a true builder’s opportunity: you’ll have ownership and autonomy to shape our systems, engage directly with customers and providers, and lay the foundations for scalable, reliable AI infrastructure. Join us at Andromeda and help power the future of AI.
