This role is part of the Jobright TNT - the private hiring network connecting top talent with top AI startups like Perplexity, Mercor, Cresta, Suno and 150 more.


This is not a mass job posting. Only select, high-signal candidates are invited to Jobright TNT and recommended directly to hiring teams


Hiring Company: OpenArt AI, Inc.


One-liner: Leading AI image generation platform (7M Active users, $70M ARR with a 20-person team)


Salary: $250K/yr - $350K/yr


Why Join Us:


Role Responsibilities


• Define and operationalize SLOs/SLIs across critical user journeys (generation, editing, payments/credits, uploads), and use them to guide prioritization and tradeoffs

• Participate in an on-call rotation and improve incident response (alert quality, runbooks, escalation paths), including leading blameless postmortems and driving follow-through on action items

• Improve system resilience at external boundaries (AI providers, storage, etc.), including timeouts, retries, circuit breakers, and fallback strategies

• Build and maintain end-to-end observability (logs, metrics, traces, dashboards) so engineers can quickly understand 'what broke' and 'why.'

• Strengthen deploy safety through CI/CD improvements, automated rollbacks, canary releases, and feature flag patterns

• Contribute to the evolution of our infrastructure architecture, helping evaluate when to extend serverless patterns vs. adopt containerized or more managed approaches as we scale

• Improve cost visibility and efficiency, including per-request cost attribution, caching strategies, and capacity planning

• Act as a strong technical contributor, helping improve engineering practices, tooling, and system design decisions across the team


Qualitications


Required


• 5+ years building and operating production systems where reliability and scaling are important

• Strong software engineering skills — you can build and ship production code, not just configure infrastructure

• Experience with cloud-native systems (AWS or GCP), including serverless/event-driven architectures and at least one container-based approach (e.g., ECS/Fargate, Cloud Run, Kubernetes)

• Solid understanding of observability and reliability practices: metrics, alerting, tracing, and incident response

• Experience designing resilient systems with external dependencies (timeouts, retries/backoff, idempotency, circuit breakers)

• Ability to communicate technical tradeoffs clearly to engineers across different domains

• Comfortable operating in ambiguous, fast-moving environments and taking ownership of problems


Preferred


• Experience building internal platform abstractions (e.g., job orchestration, API layers, workflow systems) that improve team velocity

• Track record of improving reliability metrics (e.g., MTTR, SLO attainment, latency) or reducing infrastructure cost

• Experience working in a startup or high-growth environment, with broad ownership across systems
