Описание
Diabolocom is building an AI-first communication platform and is looking for a Head of Infrastructure to own and scale the infrastructure foundation behind this platform. This role involves leading an infrastructure organization combining carrier-grade voice systems, on-premise data centers, distributed systems and AI workloads, while building the operational maturity required to support 2x growth.
Responsibilities
- Own infrastructure reliability and operations across the whole stack: incident management, monitoring, alerting, post-mortems and prevention of recurring failures
- Improve operational visibility across infrastructure teams: identify bottlenecks, improve processes and drive continuous improvement
- Improve capacity planning, connecting business growth and infrastructure needs
- Lead the evolution of network and telecom infrastructure: topology, connectivity, carrier relationships, routing, redundancy and voice platform performance and reliability
- Own on-premise infrastructure operations: data centers, hardware, storage, connectivity and deployment practices
- Drive scalability and reliability of stateful infrastructure: PostgreSQL, ClickHouse, Kafka, RabbitMQ, Redis and other critical systems
- Support the evolution of AI infrastructure, including GPU workloads and compute clusters
- Drive infrastructure improvements with automation, observability and tooling
- Partner with engineering teams to ensure applications run reliably on our platforms
- Lead and grow the Infrastructure team across Networking, SRE, Stateful Systems, Voice and Data Center squads
Requirements
- Deep expertise in at least 2–3 infrastructure domains, such as networking, SRE/reliability, database administration, telecom/voice infrastructure, or hardware/on-premise infrastructure
- Proven experience building and improving infrastructure operations: establishing processes, improving reliability practices, driving incident management and creating effective ways of working across multiple domains
- Experience leading technical teams where different groups own different areas of infrastructure (e.g. networking, SRE, databases, systems or platform engineering)
- Strong hands-on mindset: you stay close to technology and lead through context and expertise
- Self-taught, hands-on background: you have grown technically by solving complex problems beyond your formal role
- Fluent English, written and spoken
- Ability to work onsite in Paris
