C++ System Software Engineer

Software Engineer | C++ | Systems & Infrastructure

We are currently partnering with one of the fastest-growing infrastructure startups in San Francisco. This isn't "standard" growth—we’re talking 140% revenue growth in the last month alone.

They are building the world’s most efficient GPU Virtualization stack. Backed by YC and a $4.5M Seed, they are preparing for a massive Series A in the next 3–9 months. If you want to be on the ground floor of a rocket ship before the Series A valuation hits, this is it.

The Technical Challenge

We need a hybrid specialist. You live in the low-level systems world (C++, Kernels, Networking, Filesystems) but understand how to scale that via Kubernetes and modern Infrastructure.

What You’ll Be Doing:

• Systems Architecture: Optimising microsecond-level performance for a core C++ virtualisation library.
• Infra Evolution: Scaling distributed GPU clusters and oversubscription models.
• Deep Debugging: Diagnosing performance bottlenecks in production ML workloads.
• The "Bare Metal" Bridge: Bridging the gap between hardware-level GPU efficiency and high-level orchestration.

Ideal Backgrounds:

• Storage Systems: Engineers who have built high-throughput storage or distributed systems.
• HFT/Quant Infra: Specialists used to high-speed data ingestion and low-latency environments (e.g., Hedge Funds).
• Cloud Infrastructure: Deep K8s experience paired with an obsessive understanding of the underlying OS.

The Package & Reality:

• Salary: $200k – $300k + Competitive Equity (Pre-Series A).
• Location: Fully on-site in San Francisco (Relocation available).
• Velocity: This is an elite, high-intensity team. Expect 60–65 hour weeks. You aren't just an employee; you are a foundational builder.
• Visas: Support for TN, Canadian, or H-1B transfers (no net-new H-1Bs).
