United States onlyUnstructured builds open-source and commercial tools that enable developers to preprocess and transform unstructured data — PDFs, HTML, Word docs, images, and more — for AI/ML pipelines. Our solutions power production-grade, scalable generative AI use cases at leading enterprises.
We’re a team of builders obsessed with performance, simplicity, and reliability. If you’re excited by complex systems, cutting-edge ML infrastructure, and high-impact problems, we’d love to meet you.
We’re looking for a Field Infrastructure Engineer to provide deployment expertise, scaling, and support of our platform across a range of customer enterprise environments. Working closely with our users, this role is essential to delivering resilient, high performance implementations in the field, and will collaborate closely with customer Engineering and Infrastructure teams.
As a Field Infrastructure Engineer, you’ll work across a modern stack (Python, Kubernetes, Helm, CI/CD with GitHub Actions, etc.), provide critical product feedback, influence infrastructure decisions, and help shape reliability across our growing customer base.
***Ideally based in San Francisco to join our founding engineering office team 3x/week, but open to flexibility for exceptional candidates.***
