Why CAST AI?

We are on a mission to simplify Kubernetes & its Cost Management on the cloud.

There are lots of aspects to our vision such as performance, security, and resiliency to name a few. Our product must be easy to understand and create value seamlessly. Our motto: Less friction equals happier customers.

CAST AI already brings 50% to 75% cloud savings to the most popular managed K8s platforms (such as EKS, GKE, and others). Imagine the challenges we face on a typical customer cluster with a $100k monthly bill.

This is just the beginning of our product. There are so many cool things to be done. We need smart, result-driven engineers to help us with that!

What’s in this position?

Autoscaler team is looking for a Senior Software Engineer to expand its rapidly growing team.

At autoscaler team, our day is usually full of challenges. Have you ever encountered the situation where you need to expand your cloud infrastructure, in order for certain workloads to be deployed, and once the demand is low, to cut back on your cloud spendings? Most of us probably did, or at least know the many paths that need to be taken in order to achieve that.

One of the team's responsibilities is to make sure that whenever a customer is about to deploy something the burden of making sure that things are running & not costing unnecessary money is uplifted from them. These are just couple small pieces of a bigger puzzle. To get into a more detailed perspective, try to answer the following questions:

• What happens when the demand for resources decreases? What should we do?
• What kind of instance types to use (spot vs on-demand)?
• What to do when cloud provider claims all of the spot instances back? Can we predict that?
• What is the most efficient way to handle all of the workloads while taking into account both cost & efficiency metrics?
• What is the visibility of all of the decisions that our engine is taking to both our customers and us?

These are just several of the many questions that are part of the daily job when working in this team.

Being part of this team would involve design and decision-making end-to-end while collaborating with colleagues from other teams. CAST AI being a technical product, it is encouraged, not only to go and code something as written in the JIRA ticket but also to come up with new features & potential solutions to the problems that customers are facing.

Here are some of the tools we use daily:

• GoLang is our main language, while Python is an accepted alternative for some of the cases.
• Kubernetes which our product is evolving around.
• AWS, GCP and Azure cloud providers, which are currently supported in our platform.
• PostgreSQL and Cloud Object Storage for persistence.
• NATS and Pub/Sub for messaging.
• gRPC for internal communication.
• REST for public APIs.
• We use GitLab CI with ArgoCD as our GitOps CD engine.
• Prometheus, Grafana, Loki and Tempo for observability.

What’s in it for you?

• Team of highly skilled professionals to work with and learn from.
• Impact and visibility. We’re still a relatively small company, every contribution counts.
• Flat hierarchy. Getting in touch with the CEO, CTO, and all the other people from CAST AI team is not only possible but encouraged.
• Short feedback loop. We are customer-oriented so that we ship our code changes fast in order to get customer feedback right away.
• Flexible working location and hours.
• Monthly salary from €4500 to €8000 (gross) depending on the level of experience.
• Skin in the game. Every engineering member gets stock options of the company.
• Focus time: minimum overhead of meetings, bureaucracy &, etc.
• 10% self-improvement time for personal projects.

Location is remote (EU-based).

Job Description

Luxor specializes in the physical delivery of hashrate (compute power). Over the past three years we have been acting as a buyer of hashrate, purchasing, and mining over $45mm worth. We currently have 35,000 machines that sell us their hashrate daily.

Company Background

We fundamentally believe that compute power itself is a commodity and we want to build out traditional marketplaces and derivates for it.

We are building a spot-market for hashrate, not dissimilar to a compute-power version of Henry Hub. After this is completed we will begin building incredibly powerful and interesting derivative products on the value of hashrate.

You will develop the technical design for either cloud or on-premises solutions. Also, influence designs across R&D using original research and advanced analysis. You’ll design solutions for business-critical and highly complex engineering projects by applying extensive domain expertise in performance testing. You’ll provide oversight of code and design reviews, and ensure features are delivered to meet business and quality requirements.

Our teams own mission-critical aspects of a rapidly growing, globally distributed platform (eg: Hashrate Marketplace and 15 unique mining pools), in the cloud, and, as such, you will have an incredible amount of impact on the current state and future direction of our product, with visibility throughout the organization and a significant opportunity to take ownership.

This role will report directly to the CTO.

This is a remote role but you need to be based between UTC-8 and UTC-3 timezones.

Option to be paid in Bitcoin. Equity package.
