Founding Software Engineer, Infrastructure

You will build the infrastructure backbone behind Kinro's agents: cloud architecture, deployment systems, observability, data flows, and internal tooling. This is a coding-heavy role for someone who trusts agentic coding as a force multiplier and can help a small team ship quickly without compromising reliability, security, or simplicity.

What you'll do:

• Design and own the infrastructure that runs Kinro agents in production, including cloud services, networking, data systems, and deployment pipelines.
• Use agentic coding tools aggressively and responsibly to ship infrastructure and internal tooling faster, with strong planning, guardrails, and review.
• Build observability, debugging, and reliability tooling so issues are easy to catch and fast to fix.
• Improve our security posture across application infrastructure, secrets management, sandboxing, and customer integrations.
• Create internal developer tooling and abstractions that let the team ship faster with less operational drag.
• Make strong architectural tradeoffs: choose systems that are simple, robust, and right-sized for our stage.

What we're looking for:

• You have built and operated production infrastructure in a fast-moving startup or product environment.
• You are hands-on in code, not just configuration, and are comfortable working in TypeScript, Python, Go, or similar.
• You are excited by agentic coding and know how to break down infrastructure work so an agent can help effectively without creating operational risk.
• You have strong judgment around cloud architecture, CI/CD, databases, queues, security boundaries, and failure modes.
• You care about simplicity. You know when extra infrastructure is justified and when it is unnecessary complexity.
