Axiad is the identity security company building Axiad Mesh — the identity risk decision platform for the IVIP era. Mesh translates identity exposure into financial impact, prioritizes risk across human, machine, and agentic identities, and drives remediation through existing operational systems.
Location: US (Remote or HQ Hybrid)
Job Type: Full-time
Axiad is seeking a skilled AI-First SRE/DevOps Engineer with 5–8 years of hands-on infrastructure and platform engineering experience to help build and run Mesh, our Identity Visibility and Intelligence Platform (IVIP) — a cloud-native microservices platform on Kubernetes spanning human identity, non-human identity (NHI), post-quantum cryptography, and agentic AI identity risk. The ideal candidate has a builder mentality and a strong AI-First mindset: automation and AI are the default, not the afterthought, and infrastructure is something you create, not just maintain.
This is a startup environment. You will own real surface area end-to-end, move fast, and ship. The role requires deep operational expertise in Kubernetes, CI/CD, and infrastructure-as-code, along with practical experience running AI/LLM systems in production. If your instinct when facing a repetitive task is to script it, agent-ify it, or delete it entirely — you'll fit right in.
