## Description

Vapi (/ˈVɑːpi/): - Voice AI that resolves, not transfers - Powering 1 billion calls for companies like Amazon Ring, Intuit, ServiceTitan, and New York Life - Trusted by 1 million developers building the future of voice agents - Backed by Peak XV, Bessemer, Kleiner Perkins, M12, Y Combinator, and more with $72M raised - Try talking to Vapi now! https://vapi.ai/ Why We’re Hiring This Role: - Vapi ships hundreds of pull requests a day while serving some of the world’s largest enterprises. Every release must stay fast, safe, observable, and predictable at scale. - Our CI and deployment systems are critical product infrastructure. We need a senior/staff engineer to remove bottlenecks, repair fragile deploy paths, and increase confidence without slowing product teams. - You’ll own the systems behind safe releases, including Argo CD, Terraform, and Atlantis—and automate the reliable path. This role focuses on CI/CD, testing, and deployment safety, not primary incident response. What You’ll Do: - 30 Days: Map Vapi’s release architecture end to end. Partner with product and infrastructure engineers, baseline CI/test/deploy performance, identify the biggest failure modes, and ship an initial improvement. - 60 Days: Own the release-tooling roadmap and operating health. Remove the costliest CI/deploy bottlenecks, improve observability and diagnosis, and automate slow or failure-prone workflows. - 90 Days: Establish a repeatable model for safe, fast releases with measurable gains in validation time, deploy speed, and reliability. Deliver self-service workflows and guardrails, and set the longer-term release-infrastructure roadmap. Who You Are: - Evidence of owning critical CI/CD or release infrastructure at meaningful scale and driving measurable cross-team improvements. We care about impact, not a specific number of years. - Strong distributed-systems fundamentals and the ability to diagnose failures across build, test, deployment, and infrastructure layers. - Hands-on experience operating Kubernetes-based delivery systems and infrastructure-as-code tooling such as Argo CD, Terraform, and Atlantis or comparable systems. - A habit of automating repetitive work, investing in testing and passive defenses, and using data to prove that a system became faster or more reliable. - Deep curiosity and the ability to gather context quickly, form a clear point of view, and keep pace as the architecture and product evolve. - A low-ego teammate who communicates clearly and owns outcomes. Familiarity with AI coding tools is expected; experience as an SRE, with development frameworks like multi-agent workflows, and programming languages like TypeScript and Go are a plus. - This is a full-time, hybrid role in San Francisco. How We Work: - Build something worthy of love - Craft matters. We aim to build products and experiences customers genuinely love, not just tolerate. - Commit and follow through - We finish what we start and build trust by being people others can count on. - Why not today? - We value urgency and momentum. The fastest path to customer value usually wins. - Seek raw input - We go directly to customers, data, and teammates instead of relying on summaries or assumptions. - It’s our problem - We operate as one team. We share credit, own mistakes together, and support each other when things get hard. - Be direct and kind - We give feedback clearly, respectfully, and without delay. Why Vapi: - Generational impact: Build the human interface for every business - Ownership culture: Many of us are previous founders - Kind team: The founders, Jordan and Nikhil, are Canadians - Tier-1 Investors: YC, KP seed, Bessemer Series A What We Offer: - Real stake: $235,000–$280,000 base salary, plus meaningful equity ownership - Comprehensive health coverage: medical, dental, and vision plans - Team love: We love hanging out, and we do quarterly off-sites - Flexible time off: take what you need - More: catered meals, transportation, equipment, and a $10k annual L&D budget
