Description
We are looking for an experienced
Platform Engineer, PXE / CI / Image Registry
We build secure OS images for various types of AI hardware. These images are automatically built, scanned for vulnerabilities, signed, generate SBOMs, stored in a registry, and deployed on servers without manual installation.
This role is responsible for the automation and infrastructure behind this process: CI/CD pipelines, image builds, PXE boot, DHCP/TFTP configuration, registry workflows, signing keys, SBOM generation, and operational runbooks.
What This Person Will Build
CI/CD pipelines that build multiple Linux OS images in parallel
AWS-based image builder infrastructure for x86 and ARM64 images
PXE boot infrastructure so bare-metal servers can install themselves
DHCP and TFTP configuration for boot-time server identification
Harbor or OCI registry workflows for storing, tagging, promoting, and mirroring images
Cosign signing, SBOM generation, and vulnerability scan gates
Runbooks for bringing up new data-center sites and debugging failed boots or failed image builds
Must-Have Background
Strong platform engineering, DevOps, SRE, or infrastructure automation background
Hands-on CI/CD experience with GitHub Actions, GitLab CI, Jenkins, Buildkite, or similar
Linux provisioning experience, ideally PXE, DHCP, TFTP, Kickstart, cloud-init, MAAS, iPXE, or bare-metal imaging
Experience with OCI registries, container images, artifact promotion, image signing, or SBOM tooling
Terraform, Ansible, shell scripting, and AWS infrastructure experience
Good verbal and writing English language communication skills
Nice to Have
Harbor, Cosign, Syft, Grype, Kairos, Ubuntu Pro, FIPS, bare-metal data-center provisioning, or edge-site deployments
