Forward Deployed Engineer

Founded in New York and backed by top-tier venture capital firms, Plural is the AI-native operating system for enterprise infrastructure. The AI era has triggered a 10x explosion in code output, but the infrastructure underneath is still managed at human speed. Plural changes that — giving Dev Ops and platform teams an agentic execution layer that reasons across their entire estate and takes action faster and safer than any human team can.

Our platform unifies the fragmented context spread across Kubernetes, Terraform, Git, observability, ticketing, and the cloud console into a single semantic graph. On top of that graph, we run always-on AI agents that investigate alerts, remediate CVEs, automate fleet-wide upgrades, and close infrastructure tickets — every action grounded in your real environment and surfaced as a reviewable pull request. Most tools stop ral executes.

The Plural team comprises exceptional talent from industry leaders such as Mongo

DB, Facebook, Amazon, and Bloomberg. Our values of transparency, inclusivity, open-mindedness, kindness, and excellence drive us to build something genuinely new at the intersection of AI and enterprise infrastructure.

We’re looking for forward deployed engineers with a strong, broad background who are excited about creating a top tier developer experience using AI for devops. We believe strongly in the power of a small, capable, motivated team and want engineers who are willing to take on that challenge. A background across the stack, ideally with some experience in infrastructure or backend engineering is the ideal fit, but we’re interested in anyone with the chops willing to take on the challenge.
