Responsibilities

Buzz Solutions uses AI to keep the power grid safe and reliable. Much of the world's power grid is decades old, and utilities must inspect it every year to catch faults before they cause outages or wildfires. Those inspections produce millions of drone, helicopter and fixed-wing images a year, and most are still reviewed by hand. Our PowerAI platform changes that: machine-vision models find damaged insulators, conductors, hardware, poles and towers, flag vegetation encroachment, and help utility teams decide what to fix first. The work matters in a direct way. Every fault we help a utility find sooner is a lower chance of a blackout or a fire. You'll join a small team where engineers own real systems, see their work in customers' hands quickly, and help shape how a critical industry adopts AI.
The Systems & MLOps team runs the foundation that every Buzz product stands on. Our ML team builds the models and our Platform team ships PowerAI features; we make sure the infrastructure, data pipelines and model-serving layer underneath them are secure, observable and ready to scale. A single inspection can mean hundreds of thousands of high-resolution images moving through upload, preprocessing, AI inference and into the records utilities act on. We own the services and event pipelines that carry that data, on Google Cloud, PostgreSQL, Pub/Sub and Kubernetes. This matters because a lost or duplicated image is a structure nobody reviews. When data moves reliably and fast, customers get results sooner and can trust that every asset was inspected.
You'll own the cloud infrastructure that every Buzz product runs on, and make it secure, observable, cost-efficient and ready for 10x more customers, imagery and inference traffic. This is an infrastructure and DevOps role that works closely with our backend engineers: you run the cloud, clusters, data stores and observability platform, and you write code and help the backend team build the services, schemas and pipelines that run on them.
You'll set how we provision, deploy, scale and operate our systems, and write much of the code that does it. You'll work closely with the Systems, ML and Platform leads, and with the solutions team that deploys PowerAI into utility environments with strict security and compliance requirements.
Cloud environments. Google Cloud, with AWS and Azure footprints where customers require them: networking, IAM, compute, storage and managed databases.
Infrastructure as code. Terraform for every environment, with reviewed, repeatable deployments and parity across dev, staging and production.
Cluster architecture, upgrades, autoscaling, GPU node pools for inference, ingress, secrets and workload isolation.
Data store infrastructure. Fast, reliable and fault-tolerant Postgres/PostGIS, Redis, object storage and queues.
Autoscaling, capacity planning and back-pressure so bursty inspection workloads scale out without dropping work.
CI/CD. Build, test, security scanning, container image management and progressive deployment with GitOps (Argo CD or similar).
Metrics, logs and traces with SLOs, alerting and dashboards the whole team uses.
Backup and recovery. Backup, disaster recovery and business continuity, with tested recovery objectives.
