## What You Will Do

- Deploy and operate Kubernetes clusters across multiple cloud providers and edge locations.
- Build and maintain the networking that connects and isolates our edge infrastructure, including VPNs, routing, network policies, and firewalls.
- Own infrastructure automation for cluster provisioning, configuration, upgrades, and recovery.
- Manage infrastructure as code with Terraform/OpenTofu and configuration management tools such as Ansible.
- Build and operate secure runtime environments for customer workloads, including containers, microVMs, and ephemeral sandboxed workloads.
- Improve cluster reliability, observability, and capacity as the platform grows across providers and regions.
- Build out Prometheus metrics and alerting for infrastructure and platform observability.
- Harden workload and network isolation, and help define security boundaries for running untrusted customer code.
- Participate in on-call and troubleshoot problems across Linux, containers, Kubernetes, networking, and cloud infrastructure.

## What You Bring

- 1–3+ years of hands-on Kubernetes experience in production, including cluster-level operations and troubleshooting.
- Strong Linux and container fundamentals.

- Experience working with at least one major cloud provider and an understanding of cloud networking, compute, and storage.
- Experience diagnosing production issues across multiple layers of the infrastructure stack.
- Security mindset: you think about attack surfaces, tenant isolation, and running untrusted workloads safely.

## Nice to Have

- Experience operating Kubernetes across multiple cloud providers or regions.
- Experience with Kubernetes networking and CNI implementations such as Calico.
- Firecracker, Kata Containers, or other microVM/container isolation technologies.
- Container runtime experience, including containerd, cgroups, namespaces, or seccomp.
- Knative or other serverless infrastructure.
- Experience with ephemeral compute, sandboxing, CI runners, build systems, or other platforms that execute user-provided code.

## About Telnyx

## Core Business
- **Primary industry**: Telecommunications / AI Infrastructure
- **Target customers**: B2B – developers, enterprises, and communications service providers building voice AI agents, programmable voice, messaging, and IoT solutions.
- **Mission or purpose**: To own the full stack from carrier network to AI inference so that customers can build real-time voice AI agents with no handoffs, no lag, and carrier-grade reliability.

## Products & Services
- **Voice AI Agents**: Carrier-native voice AI with bundled STT (speech-to-text), LLM inference, and TTS (text-to-speech) on a Tier-1 network. Priced at $0.05/min for the full bundle.
- **SIP Trunking**: Elastic SIP trunking for enterprise voice, outbound from $0.005/min, inbound from $0.0035/min.
- **Programmable Voice & Messaging (SMS/MMS)**: RESTful APIs for call control, conferencing, recording, and SMS/MMS from $0.004 per outbound message.
- **AI Inference**: Edge-deployed GPU inference for voice and text AI, with per-token pricing or x402 pay-per-call.
- **Wireless (Mobile IoT)**: Programmable eSIM and roaming for IoT devices.

## Market Standing
- **Valuation/Market Cap**: Not publicly disclosed.
- **Key Metric**: Annual revenue estimated at $16.0M (LinkedIn); total funding raised $2.1M.
- **Notable Investors/Partners**: Not publicly disclosed (only 2 prior funding rounds mentioned, lead investors unknown).

## Competitive Advantages
- **Full-stack ownership**: Telnyx owns its carrier network (CLEC licenses, STIR/SHAKEN A-level) and co-locates GPU compute at the telco edge, bypassing the public internet for low-latency voice AI.
- **Single vendor for voice AI**: Bundles SIP, STT, LLM, and TTS – no need to stitch together multiple providers.
- **Compliance by default**: Holds HIPAA, SOC 2 Type II, GDPR, ISO 27001, and PCI DSS certifications; built-in programmatic compliance (10DLC/KYC).
- **Private global network**: Operates a private IP network across 40+ countries, ensuring deterministic routing and high-quality audio.

## Strategic Focus
- **Voice AI agents**: Deep investment in real-time conversational AI infrastructure, including machine-readable evaluation endpoints and benchmark tools for developers.
- **Global expansion**: Continues to add PoPs and data center locations (Amsterdam, Dublin, Warsaw, Bangalore, etc.) to reduce latency.
- **AI-native platform**: Building autonomous orchestration for agent-to-agent workflows and inference at the edge.

## Why Work Here
- **Work flexibility**: Remote-first with in-person options in Austin, Amsterdam, Dublin, and Warsaw. Many roles are fully remote.
- **Culture & perks**: Unlimited personal time off, healthcare benefits (US, UK, Ireland), 401(k) matching (US), equity, commuter benefits, free snacks/drinks in offices.
- **Growth opportunities**: Strong promotion policies with customized development tracks; apprenticeship programs; job training and conferences.
