We're building the infrastructure layer for agentic web interaction at scale. Our API is designed from the ground up to power Retrieval-Augmented Generation (RAG) and real-time reasoning in AI systems. By connecting LLMs to high-quality, trustworthy web content, we help developers build agents that are not only intelligent — but also informed.
We work with some of the most innovative teams in AI — from small startups shaping the ecosystem to the largest enterprises deploying AI at scale. Whether it's powering sales assistants, research copilots, or internal knowledge tools, we're the missing link between LLMs and the real world.
Managing Kubernetes clusters across multiple environments and regions

Maintaining and improving CI/CD pipelines and GitOps-based deployments
Maintaining and optimize real-time data pipelines that process billions of events per day across distributed queues and stream processors
Building out monitoring, alerting, and observability
Debugging production issues across services
Managing cloud costs and capacity planning
Working closely with a small engineering team — you'd own infra, not a slice of it
~3+ years in a DevOps or platform engineering role, working in production environments
Proven experience designing and operating large-scale, distributed systems, with a solid understanding of API design, reliability, and performance at scale
