Own and improve infrastructure across cloud, customer-managed cloud, on-premises, and air-gapped environments. Package the platform as a reproducible Kubernetes bundle, operate application and GPU workloads, manage infrastructure as code and CI/CD releases, and build monitoring, logging, and alerting for restricted environments. Responsibilities also include supporting search and data infrastructure, networking, secrets, certificates, and security hardening.

Infrastructure / DevOps Engineer

About Discernis
Discernis builds AI driven document intelligence for high stakes legal work. Because our customers handle privileged and regulated matters that most cloud AI cannot touch, we run on premises and in customer controlled environments as well as in the cloud. That makes security, reliability, and reproducibility core product features, not afterthoughts. We work with AmLaw firms and enterprise legal teams where accuracy, explainability, and data control are non negotiable.

The Role
You will own the infrastructure that runs our platform in three very different places: our cloud, customer managed cloud accounts, and customer controlled hardware, including air gapped and on premises environments. The hard and interesting part of this job is making the same product deploy reliably and reproducibly on machines we do not operate. If you like turning bespoke deployments into a repeatable system, this is that job.

What You Will Do

  • Package and ship our platform as a reproducible Kubernetes based bundle that installs cleanly on customer controlled and on premises hardware

  • Operate and improve Kubernetes clusters running both application services and GPU accelerated AI workloads

  • Own our infrastructure as code and release process so environments are reproducible across cloud and on prem

  • Build production grade monitoring, logging, and alerting that works even in restricted customer environments

  • Support large scale search and data infrastructure running on Kubernetes

  • Drive best practices in networking, secrets management, certificate handling, and security hardening

What You Bring

  • Solid experience running production Kubernetes

  • Experience with infrastructure as code tools such as Helm, Terraform, or Pulumi

  • Hands on experience designing CI and CD workflows

  • Comfort with observability stacks and production monitoring

  • Strong networking and Linux fundamentals

  • Bonus: GPU and AI workloads in Kubernetes, NVIDIA drivers and CUDA on bare metal, or shipping software into air gapped or customer controlled environments

  • Bonus: Elasticsearch or similar distributed data systems

Tech Environment
Kubernetes and K3s, Docker, NVIDIA GPUs, Elasticsearch, Terraform and Helm, CI/CD tooling, cloud and on premises environments
