• Build product & infrastructure: As an early engineer, you’ll play a key role in shaping the architectural decisions that allow Runway to scale to meet the needs of our growing customer base. • Build our technical foundation: Work we do today can make our future work better and faster. • Grow the team: Everyone on the early team plays an important role in attracting, closing, and growing other talented team members.

• Manage the underlying cloud and cluster technologies that compose our internal platform • Manage stateful backend services such as databases and Bitcoin/LN nodes • Utilize, operate, and extend observability tools (logging/monitoring/tracing) • Improve robustness & security of our platform using enhancements like operators and overlay networks • Advise/assist dev teams with integrations, such as Helm charts, cloud resources, and the k8s lifecycle

• Managing and resolving incidents/issues from start to finish, owning initial investigation and troubleshooting to determine root cause and resolution, creating escalations as needed • Handling internal and external communication (status page, tickets, Slack, Webex etc.) • Creating and/or update procedures, run-books, diagrams, and other documentation on a continual basis • Writing automation scripts to streamline incident resolution • Partnering with senior engineering teams during scheduled or emergency maintenance activity

• Building a best‑in‑class, Azure‑driven cloud networking environment that supports a rapidly evolving, multi‑cloud ecosystem. • Design, implement, and manage Azure networking components including VNets, VNet peering, Private Endpoints, Application Gateways, Load Balancers, NSG, Azure DNS, Azure Firewall, and ExpressRoute. • Applying your physical and cloud‑based network design expertise to interconnect systems using WAF (i.e Cloudflare), firewalls, load balancers, and routing protocols (BGP) across a predominantly cloud‑based infrastructure. • Partnering closely with infosec, engineering, and operations teams to shape a forward‑looking network architecture strategy aligned with the company’s growth. • Serving as the network Subject Matter Expert (SME), elevating team knowledge and cultivating strong relationships with key leaders and architects. • Reporting directly to the Director of Site Reliability Engineering, with a strong dotted‑line partnership to the Platform Engineering Network Manager. • Implement Infrastructure as Code (IaC) for networking, including automated provisioning of VNets, BGP routing, firewall rules, load balancers, F5 policies using Terraform, Ansible, and GitOps workflows. • Participate in Root Cause Analysis (RCA) and drive true remediation to prevent recurrence.
