Platform engineering
01Create paved roads that make the secure, observable, repeatable path the fastest path to production.
Careers at WebRiot
Do the work other teams route around.
We are building a small crew of engineers who can walk into complex production systems, find the real constraint, and leave the team stronger than we found it.
The standard
Bring evidence. Write the code. Own what happens after deploy.
Not a consulting bench
Small teams. High consequence.
WebRiot gets called when delivery has stalled, reliability is eroding, or a platform needs to survive the jump from architecture diagram to production. The work is close to the system and close to the customer.
You will move between design, implementation, incidents, and hard conversations. There is no handoff to a distant delivery team. The people in the room are the people changing the system.
Where you can hit the system
Build infrastructure that holds up outside the demo.
Reliability engineering
02Turn telemetry, recovery, capacity, and incident learning into an operating system teams can trust.
Kubernetes at the edge
03Operate distributed fleets across stores, sites, and constrained environments where failure is local and access is not guaranteed.
AI platform engineering
04Move AI workloads beyond prototypes with governed delivery, production observability, cost controls, and repeatable infrastructure.
How we operate
Autonomy requires judgment.
We care less about collecting tools on a resume and more about how you think when the runbook ends.
01
Stay close to production
Design decisions are better when you understand the deployment path, the telemetry, and the blast radius.
02
Communicate without fog
Name the risk, show the evidence, and make the tradeoff legible to engineers and executives.
03
Build yourself out of the loop
The customer should leave with stronger systems, stronger operators, and less dependence on outside help.
04
Challenge the default
Tooling is not strategy. Question inherited complexity and keep only what earns its operational cost.

This sample shows how WebRiot roles will set expectations: the mission, the operating context, and the evidence that matters.
Sample roleSenior individual contributor
Senior DevOps Engineer
Build and repair production platforms across cloud, Kubernetes, edge fleets, delivery systems, and AI infrastructure.
The hiring loop
Low ceremony. High signal.
01
Signal review
We look at what you have built, written, repaired, or learned the hard way.
02
Technical conversation
A direct discussion about systems, tradeoffs, and how you work under uncertainty.
03
Working session
A realistic problem solved together. No trivia circuit and no theatrical whiteboarding.
04
Mutual fit
Clear expectations about the work, the engagement model, and what success looks like.
Open channel
The sample is not open. The channel is.
Send us the system you built, the failure that changed how you work, and the kind of problem you want next. A resume can come after the signal.
