  • Voice AI that resolves, not transfers

  • Powering 1 billion calls for companies like Amazon Ring, Intuit, ServiceTitan, and New York Life

  • Trusted by 1 million developers building the future of voice agents

  • Backed by Peak XV, Bessemer, Kleiner Perkins, M12, Y Combinator, and more with $72M raised

  • Try talking to Vapi now!

  • Vapi ships hundreds of pull requests a day while serving some of the world’s largest enterprises. Every release must stay fast, safe, observable, and predictable at scale.

  • Our CI and deployment systems are critical product infrastructure. We need a senior/staff engineer to remove bottlenecks, repair fragile deploy paths, and increase confidence without slowing product teams.

  • You’ll own the systems behind safe releases, including Argo CD, Terraform, and Atlantis—and automate the reliable path. This role focuses on CI/CD, testing, and deployment safety, not primary incident response.

  • Evidence of owning critical CI/CD or release infrastructure at meaningful scale and driving measurable cross-team improvements. We care about impact, not a specific number of years.

  • Strong distributed-systems fundamentals and the ability to diagnose failures across build, test, deployment, and infrastructure layers.

  • Hands-on experience operating Kubernetes-based delivery systems and infrastructure-as-code tooling such as Argo CD, Terraform, and Atlantis or comparable systems.

  • A habit of automating repetitive work, investing in testing and passive defenses, and using data to prove that a system became faster or more reliable.

  • Deep curiosity and the ability to gather context quickly, form a clear point of view, and keep pace as the architecture and product evolve.

  • A low-ego teammate who communicates clearly and owns outcomes. Familiarity with AI coding tools is expected; experience as an SRE, with development frameworks like multi-agent workflows, and programming languages like TypeScript and Go are a plus.

  • This is a full-time, hybrid role in San Francisco.

  • Craft matters. We aim to build products and experiences customers genuinely love, not just tolerate.

    • We finish what we start and build trust by being people others can count on.

    • We value urgency and momentum. The fastest path to customer value usually wins.

    • We go directly to customers, data, and teammates instead of relying on summaries or assumptions.

    • We operate as one team. We share credit, own mistakes together, and support each other when things get hard.

    • We give feedback clearly, respectfully, and without delay.
