Infra Engineer - Datacenters

This is a remote position available anywhere in the world! Linkedin makes us show a country, but we hire the best people wherever they are.

At Railway, we make it simple to ship anything. A lot goes into that. This role bridges the universe of atoms, to the universe of bits.

We’ve built ground up infrastructure to deliver better-than-best-in-class experience to all of our users, by building datacenters all over the world.

They’re designed for performance of course, but also for resilience and reliability. Doesn’t matter how good your stuff is if it doesn’t stay up right?

"The person who says it cannot be done, should not interrupt the person doing it"

- Confucius

So You Want to Build Your Own Data Center

Want to learn about our work culture? Here is a three-part blog series that will help you see the unique ways our team works (1 and 2 and
3).

• We’re distributed ALL across the globe, and that’s only going to be more and more distributed. As a result, stuff is ALWAYS happening.
• We do NOT expect you to work all the time, but you’ll have to be diligent about your boundaries because the end of your day may overlap with the start of someone else’s.
• We’re a small team, with high ownership, who are not only passionate about what we do, but seek to be exceptional as well. At the time of writing we’re 21, serving hundreds of thousands of users. There’s a lot of stuff going on, and a lot of ambiguity.
• We want you to own it. We believe that ownership is a key to growth, and part of that growth is not only being able to make the choices, but owning the success, or failure, that comes with those choices.

At Railway, we provide best in class benefits. Great salary, full health benefits including dependents, strong equity grants, equipment stipend, and much more. For more details, check back on the main careers page.

Beyond compensation, there are a few things that we believe that make working at Railway truly unique:

• Autonomy
  :
  We have very few meetings. Just a Monday and a Friday to go over the Company Board. We think your time is sacred, whether it’s at work, or outside of work.
• Ownership
  :
  We’re a company with a high ownership, high autonomy culture. We hope that you’ll come in, help us, and over the course of many years do the best work of your life. When we bring you onboard, we expect you to change the company.
• Novel problems/solutions
  :
  We’re a startup that’s well funded, with cool problems, which lets us implement novel solutions! We abhor “busywork” and think, whether it’s community, engineering, operations, etc there’s always opportunity for creative and high leverage solutions.
• Growth
  :
  We want you to grow with us, but we know that talent is loaned, so when you figure out what area you want to grow in next, whether it’s at Railway or outside, we’ll make sure you land there.

No tricks. No surprises. Here’s the entire process:
