At Pulumi, we’re building the Cloud Engineering Platform enabling the future of developer-first infrastructure.

We want to make janky internal developer portals and homegrown infrastructure DSLs a thing of the past. Every engineer deserves delightful tools.

We employ a unique philosophy toward achieving this goal:

  • We succeed and fail as a team
  • An inclusive environment bubbles the best ideas to the top
  • Our customers sit at the center of every decision
  • We achieve the best results through openness and honesty, even when uncomfortable
  • Work smart, but bias for action and results
  • Our natural curiosity for technology keeps us always learning
  • Think big, dream, and define the future of engineering in the cloud

  • Designing, debugging, and implementing diff algorithms with accompanying fuzz/property tests.
  • Writing automation to update our 100+ bridged terraform providers.
  • Design automated systems to generate documentation based on Pulumi’s universal cloud resource schema.
  • Deeply understand the principles, find inconsistencies, codify the patterns while working with the Kubernetes API, AWS Cloud Control API, Azure Resource Manager, and more.
