The Information Technology team at Rubrik influences business processes, employee experience, and technologies to scale our organization to $1B+. This team creates operational efficiency across the company by centralizing the management of Infrastructure, Technology, and Data. The IT team ensures all stages of the software development lifecycle in a secured environment and scrutinizes the deployment of proper processes along with governance. They champion Rubrik on Rubrik and are the first customers of the Engineering teams at Rubrik. We're transforming global infrastructure, and we’re looking for bold thinkers and builders to join us. If you're passionate about making an impact and shaping the future of cloud and platform infrastructure—we'd love to hear from you.

About the Role

The Enterprise AI team is Rubrik’s internal AI enablement engine. We evaluate where AI can make a real difference, build the platforms and patterns that make adoption easy, and help engineering teams across the organization work smarter and faster. We operate at the intersection of applied AI, distributed systems, and enterprise operations — our job is to make Rubrik more efficient, one AI-powered workflow at a time.

This is a high-impact, high-autonomy team where you’ll work closely with engineering, product and operations teams across Rubrik to bring AI capabilities to life.

We’re hiring a Sr. Software Developer to design, build, and operate the platform and backend systems that power Rubrik at scale. You’ll own core infrastructure — from Kubernetes and cloud-native services to APIs and developer tooling — and work closely with product, AI, and security teams. This is a hands-on, high-ownership role where you write production code, design systems, lead code reviews, and make the engineering organization more effective.

Own Kubernetes at depth — clusters, networking, operators, container lifecycle, and multi-tenant orchestration.

Design, develop, and optimize distributed services and cloud-native infrastructure on AWS and/or GCP for scale, reliability, and performance.

Drive engineering excellence through code quality standards, design reviews, automation, and CI/CD best practices.

Collaborate across teams — Product, AI, and Security — to align architecture with business objectives.

Be a mentor and multiplier, guiding engineers through architecture decisions, trade-offs, and delivery.

Partner with leadership to align engineering strategy with prod
