Airtable's infrastructure is evolving to meet the needs of our fast growing engineering org. We are looking for infrastructure engineers to join our team to help improve critical product infrastructure, with a focus on building systems that have a great developer experience and will scale as we grow.

We currently have openings on:

• Compute: The compute pod builds and manages our Kubernetes-based platform that supports every service at Airtable, including all new AI services such as vector databases, AI evals store, and document extraction and understanding services. We have a lot of exciting foundational work in our roadmap, such as:
• Overhauling our network stack and service discovery, to simplify service setup and strengthen security
• Region level disaster recovery, and bringing up compute platform from 0->1 in a new region
• Building custom Kubernetes operators for reliably managing some of our most critical workloads

• Developer Platform: The Developer Platform team sits at the intersection of all engineering at Airtable, focusing on building the internal tooling, frameworks, and CI/CD systems that power our product teams. We strive to streamline developer workflows - from build and test cycles to production deployments—and foster a best-in-class developer experience. Join us if you're passionate about creating high-leverage solutions that enable engineers to deliver features quickly, reliably, and at scale.
