United States onlyWhy You're Here
We're building Fuser — an AI-native creative platform for professionals. We've shipped a public beta with a solid foundation: multiplayer infrastructure, a node-based canvas, 50+ AI integrations, and 100k+ lines of code. Now we need to scale our infrastructure with the same care we've put into the product.
As our DevOps contractor, you'll work directly with our CTO and founding engineers to build robust, automated infrastructure that keeps our team moving fast without breaking things. This is a hands-on role focused on infrastructure-as-code, developer experience, and system reliability.
What You'll Do
Improve developer environments and workflows to reduce friction and environment-specific bugs
Build automation and tooling that enables faster, safer deployments and testing
Design infrastructure strategies that support our growing engineering team
Implement security best practices and operational standards across our stack
Ensure all infrastructure is maintainable, auditable, and follows IaC principles
What You'll Bring
Deep Cloudflare expertise — Workers, Durable Objects, R2, Containers, and the broader CF ecosystem
Infrastructure-as-code mindset — Everything should be versioned, reproducible, and maintainable
Experience with modern deployment tooling — GitHub Actions, CI/CD pipelines, preview environments
Database operations knowledge — Branching strategies, migrations, backups, and replication
Security-first approach — Secrets management, environment isolation, access controls
Strong communication skills — You'll be working with a small, fast-moving engineering team
Bonus Points For
Experience with tRPC, Hono, or similar TypeScript-first frameworks
Background in developer tooling or platform engineering
Familiarity with real-time multiplayer infrastructure
Open-source contributions
Experience supporting creative or AI-native product companies
