Junior Site Reliability Engineer, AI Platform
Algolia was built to help users deliver an intuitive search-as-you-type experience on their websites and mobile apps. We provide a search API used by thousands of customers in more than 100 countries. Billions of search queries are answered every month thanks to the code we push into production every day.
Join the AI Platform: Building Core components to speed up AI delivery
The AI Platform is dedicated to enable AI product delivery by providing other teams with turnkey tools, frameworks, and features so that they can focus on their core business instead of redundant work that falls outside their expertise. The areas covered by the AI Platform are two-fold: allowing teams to quickly design new models (AI development) and generating and serving predictions in production (AI productionization).
We’re looking for problem solvers with an entrepreneurial mindset—people who focus on outcomes and use data to drive decisions. If you're passionate about reliability, scalability, and automation, and want to contribute to a platform that powers AI at scale, we’d love to hear from you!
The team is composed of a variety of roles ranging from Site Reliability Engineer to Machine Learning specialists with a strong focus on Data Engineering, most of whom are fully remote, with different skill sets and backgrounds. Your experience, your knowledge and your perspective will add to this diversity and help the team deliver products that make a difference.
Day to day you will:
- Be a key contributor to implement, and maintain the infrastructure that powers the AI Platform
- Support Kubernetes-based deployments across cloud providers (GCP, AWS, Azure)
- Contribute to the development and maintenance of infrastructure as code
- Monitor and improve system reliability, scalability, and performance
You might be a fit if you have:
- Experience with Kubernetes and container orchestration in production environments
- A passion for automation and infrastructure as code (e.g., Terraform)
- Experience with CI/CD pipelines
- Familiarity with monitoring and observability tools (e.g., Datadog)
- A strong desire to learn and grow in the field of Site Reliability Engineering
- Excellent spoken and written English skills
Ideally, you would also have:
- Familiarity with cloud providers (GCP, AWS, or Azure)
- Programming skills in Go and/or Python
- Exposure to incident response and on-call practices
We’re looking for someone who can live our values:
- GRIT - Problem-solving and perseverance capability in an ever-changing and growing environment
- TRUST - Willingness to trust our co-workers and to take ownership
- CANDOR - Ability to receive and give constructive feedback.
- CARE - Genuine care about other team members, our clients and the decisions we make in the company.
- HUMILITY- Aptitude for learning from others, putting ego aside.

FLEXIBLE WORKPLACE STRATEGY:
Algolia’s flexible workplace model is designed to empower all Algolians to fulfill our mission to power search and discovery with ease. We place an emphasis on an individual’s impact, contribution, and output, over their physical location. Algolia is a high-trust environment and many of our team members have the autonomy to choose where they want to work and when.
While we have a global presence with physical offices in Paris, NYC, London, Sydney and Bucharest, we also offer many of our team members the option to work remotely either as fully remote or hybrid-remote employees. Please note that positions listed as "Remote" are only available for remote work within the specified country. Positions listed within a specific city are only available in that location - depending on the nature of the role it may be available with either a hybrid-remote or in-office schedule.
ABOUT US:
Algolia prides itself on being a pioneer and market leader offering an AI Search solution that empowers 17,000+ businesses to compose customer experiences at internet scale that predict what their users want with blazing fast search and web browse experience. Algolia powers more than 30 billion search requests a week – four times more than Microsoft Bing, Yahoo, Baidu, Yandex and DuckDuckGo combined.
Algolia is part of a cadre of innovative new companies that are driving the next generation of software development, creating APIs that make developers’ lives easier; solutions that are better than building from scratch and better than having to tweak monolithic SaaS solutions.
In 2021, the company closed $150 million in series D funding and quadrupled its post-money valuation of $2.25 billion. Being well capitalized enables Algolia to continue to invest in its market leading platform, to better serve its thousands of customers–including Under Armor, Petsmart, Stripe, Gymshark, and Walgreens, to name just a few.
