We are a dynamic, collaborative team passionate about AI and its potential to transform society. Our diverse workforce thrives in competitive environments and is committed to driving innovation. Our teams are distributed between Europe, North America, Asia and the Middle East. We are creative, low-ego and team-spirited. THE TEAM Mistral is building a sovereign AI cloud for Europe. Our customers in finance, healthcare, and the public sector run frontier models on European-jurisdiction infrastructure, and the Cloud Platform team builds the systems that make that possible — compute orchestration, Kubernetes, bare metal, storage, networking, and the datacenter fleet that runs it all. We run it all on our own metal, our own network, our own datacenters — which means when something breaks, the fix is ours to write. European Compute Units let enterprises commit to multi-year capacity on that infrastructure, and we are scaling toward a gigawatt of compute across Europe by 2030. You will design and ship the layer every sovereign AI deployment depends on. THE ROLE AI agents don't run in browsers. They run in sandboxes — and you will build ours. We build secure, isolated, network-controlled environments with snapshotting primitives, designed for AI agents and reinforcement-learning workloads. An RL training run doesn't need one environment; it needs thousands, created and destroyed every second. An agent needs to be sandboxed from the world while still feeling fast enough to be useful. That tension — airtight isolation, at fleet scale, at low latency — is the product. Your customers are the people building the next generation of AI software on our infrastructure; the primitives you ship become the runtime their agents live in. WHAT YOU WILL DO - Build the isolation layer: microVMs or containers, namespaces, cgroups, seccomp, snapshot and restore. - Own the security boundary. Customers run code they didn't write and can't fully trust — your systems make that safe. - Scale to fleets: creation latency, density, and lifecycle management for thousands of concurrent environments. - Write Go and own the architecture and the hardest implementation decisions. - Partner with Product Managers to turn frontier research needs into shippable primitives. WHAT WE'RE LOOKING FOR - Deep Linux internals: namespaces, cgroups, seccomp, virtualization — ideally microVMs of the Firecracker class. - You have shipped production systems in Go. Not dabbled. Shipped. - You understand network isolation at the packet level — not just firewall rules. - Performance instincts: you know what a syscall costs, and you have the profiles to prove you've cared. - 5+ years building backend or infrastructure systems. - You have partnered with product, design, and business teams to ship software that reached real users. - A low-ego, team-first mindset. We care less about your exact domain and more about whether you are the kind of technical force other engineers want to work alongside. WHAT WE OFFER We offer a comprehensive benefits package designed to support your well-being, growth, and work-life balance. Benefits vary by country and may include healthcare coverage, parental leave, retirement plans, relocation support, wellness programs, meal and transportation allowances, and other location-specific perks.

European Compute Units let enterprises commit to multi-year capacity on that infrastructure, and we are scaling toward a gigawatt of compute across Europe by 2030. You will design and ship the layer every sovereign AI deployment depends on. THE ROLE You will build storage on our cloud. Block, filesystem, and object storage for training runs, sandboxed workloads, and general compute: you help decide what we build, what we buy, and how it adds up to storage our customers can bet a business on. Some layers we deploy and harden from best-in-class vendors. The ones that matter most we write ourselves in Go — S3-compatible object storage, tiering, backup and recovery, caching layers that put cold data on cheap spinning disks. Storage is a strategic bet for this org: the systems you build will define how a gigawatt of European compute stores its data. WHAT YOU WILL DO - Build the storage stack — block, file, object — for training, sandbox, and general compute workloads. - Design and write our own services in Go: S3-compatible APIs, tiering, backup and recovery, caching layers. - Own the data plane: allocation, duplication, tiering, backup and recovery. - Plan capacity across datacenters and across failure domains — petabytes, not terabytes. - Partner with Product Managers to shape the storage roadmap and make the technical and business tradeoffs. WHAT WE'RE LOOKING FOR - You have built storage systems — object, block, or distributed filesystems — not just operated them. You know what happens when a disk dies mid-write and when a rebalance collides with a backup window. - Deep distributed-systems fundamentals: durability, consistency, replication, erasure coding, failure domains. - You have shipped production systems in Go. Systems engineers coming from C++ or Rust who are ready to write Go daily should still talk to us. - You are comfortable with hardware reality: HDD, SSD, and NVMe tiers, and the economics of each. - 5+ years building backend or infrastructure systems. - You have partnered with product, design, and business teams to ship software that reached real users. - A low-ego, team-first mindset. We care less about your exact domain and more about whether you are the kind of technical force other engineers want to work alongside.

European Compute Units let enterprises commit to multi-year capacity on that infrastructure, and we are scaling toward a gigawatt of compute across Europe by 2030. You will design and ship the layer every sovereign AI deployment depends on. THE ROLE You will build our Kubernetes product end to end: a metal-to-on-demand platform built on in-house infrastructure, with GPU support for training, inference, and general-purpose compute. Kubernetes is our product, not just our platform — we run it on infrastructure we own end to end. You will decide how the control plane scales, how GPUs get scheduled, and how quickly a rack of bare metal becomes an on-demand cluster a customer can use. The decisions you make here shape how our infrastructure scales from today's footprint to a gigawatt, and how we turn frontier AI research into production systems used by millions. WHAT YOU WILL DO - Design and ship the control plane. You own the architecture and the hardest implementation decisions — scheduling, operators, provisioning, node lifecycle. - Own the reliability of the Kubernetes control plane. It is the team's headline KPI. You make the calls when it breaks at 3am. - Shrink the distance from metal to on-demand. Provisioning a cluster should be minutes of automation, not weeks of tickets. - Partner with Product Managers to set priorities, scope initiatives, and make the technical and business tradeoffs. - Raise the engineering bar through code review and knowledge sharing across the Cloud Platform org. WHAT WE'RE LOOKING FOR - You have shipped production systems in Go. Not dabbled. Shipped. - You have run Kubernetes in anger — and ideally built parts of it: operators, schedulers, controllers. You understand what happens underneath it, and you have worked on Linux directly, not just on managed services that sit on top of it. - You have run GPU workloads on Kubernetes, or you are confident you can own that domain fast. - You think like a developer who happens to build infrastructure, not an operator who manages it. You write code other engineers depend on. - Extensive experience building backend or infrastructure systems. - You have partnered with product, design, and business teams to ship software that reached real users. - A low-ego, team-first mindset. We care less about your exact domain and more about whether you are the kind of technical force other engineers want to work alongside.

European Compute Units let enterprises commit to multi-year capacity on that infrastructure, and we are scaling toward a gigawatt of compute across Europe by 2030. You will design and ship the layer every sovereign AI deployment depends on. THE ROLE A datacenter is not a cloud until software makes it one. You will build the software that turns arriving hardware into accepted clusters. Cabling validation, burn-in, firmware, deployment validation, software stack install — all of it automated, none of it click-ops. Your KPI is time to acceptance: the hours between a rack being physically installed and it serving customer workloads. Across the industry that number is measured in weeks. You will drive it toward days, then hours, as we scale toward a gigawatt of compute across Europe. This is a hands-on engineering role at the intersection of hardware and software. Most of your time in the code and the architecture, some of it on datacenter floors, because the automation has to survive contact with the machines it runs on. WHAT YOU WILL DO - Build the delivery pipeline in Go: provisioning, configuration, validation, burn-in, network bring-up, software stack install. - Own time-to-acceptance and drive it down relentlessly — measure it, break it down, kill the slowest step first. - Work shoulder-to-shoulder with Hardware Design and Fleet Health — reliability starts at delivery. - Handle GPU fleets at scale: H100 and GB200-class nodes, InfiniBand and RoCE fabrics, and the failure modes they bring. - Partner with Product Managers and the datacenter org to plan delivery waves against capacity commitments. WHAT WE'RE LOOKING FOR - You have automated bare-metal fleets — you have written the software that turns racks into clusters. If you have done it by hand, you resented it and scripted it. - Hardware fluency: servers, GPUs, NICs, switches, firmware — you can read a parts list and a topology diagram. - 5+ years building backend or infrastructure systems. - Deep Linux: you are comfortable well below the application layer. - You have shipped production systems in Go. Not dabbled. Shipped. - Willing to travel to datacenter sites when the work demands it. - A low-ego, team-first mindset. We care less about your exact domain and more about whether you are the kind of technical force other engineers want to work alongside.

You will design and ship the layer every sovereign AI deployment depends on. THE ROLE You will build our serverless containers product: the way developers run AI apps, MCP servers, APIs, and managed workers on our cloud without thinking about servers. Push a container, get an endpoint, scale from zero to thousands of instances and back down — across CPU and GPU. On a hyperscaler, the serverless layer is a product someone else built. Here you build it end to end: the scheduler that decides where a container lands, the routing path a request takes, the machinery that turns a scaled-to-zero service into a warm instance before a customer notices. All of it runs on metal, network, and datacenters we own. That tension is the product: scale-to-zero economics with cold starts in milliseconds, autoscaling that absorbs a launch spike without a config change, GPUs scheduled onto containers the way other platforms schedule CPU. The customers betting on this layer are the developers building the next generation of AI software on European infrastructure. WHAT YOU WILL DO - Build the container platform end to end: image delivery, placement, request routing, scale-up, scale-to-zero — across CPU and GPU. - Make cold starts a solved problem: snapshotting, prewarming, image-layer caching, whatever it takes for scale-from-zero to feel instant. - Treat AI workloads as the normal case: GPU-backed containers, streaming responses, long-lived connections, MCP servers that cost almost nothing while idle. - Write Go and own the architecture and the hardest implementation decisions. - Partner with Product Managers to turn platform decisions into a product developers want to deploy on. WHAT WE'RE LOOKING FOR - You have shipped production systems in Go. Not dabbled. Shipped. - You have built container or workload platforms — orchestration, scheduling, isolation, request routing — not just deployed onto someone else's serverless platform. - Deep Linux: namespaces, cgroups, image layers, page cache — comfortable well below the application layer. - Multi-tenancy instincts: density, isolation, and fairness when hundreds of customers share one fleet. - Significant experience building complex backend or infrastructure systems. - You have partnered with product, design, and business teams to ship software that reached real users. - A low-ego, team-first mindset. We care less about your exact domain and more about whether you are the kind of technical force other engineers want to work alongside.

We run it all on our own metal, our own network, our own datacenters — which means when something breaks, the fix is ours to write. European Compute Units let enterprises commit to multi-year capacity on that infrastructure, and we are scaling toward a gigawatt of compute across Europe by 2030. You will design and ship the layer every sovereign AI deployment depends on and shape the team building it. THE ROLE This is a people-leadership role from day one.

You will lead the team building our serverless containers product: the way developers run AI apps, MCP servers, APIs, and managed workers on our cloud without thinking about servers. Push a container, get an endpoint, scale from zero to thousands of instances and back down — across CPU and GPU. On a hyperscaler, the serverless layer is a product someone else built.

European Compute Units let enterprises commit to multi-year capacity on that infrastructure, and we are scaling toward a gigawatt of compute across Europe by 2030. You will design and ship the layer every sovereign AI deployment depends on and shape the team building it. THE ROLE A datacenter is not a cloud until software makes it one. You will lead the team that turns arriving hardware into accepted clusters. Cabling validation, burn-in, firmware, deployment validation, software stack install — all of it automated, none of it click-ops. Your KPI is time to acceptance: the hours between a rack being physically installed and it serving customer workloads. Across the industry that number is measured in weeks. You will drive it toward days, then hours, as we scale toward a gigawatt of compute across Europe. This is a founding leadership role at the intersection of hardware and software. Early on it is deliberately hands-on: most of your time in the code and the architecture, some of it on datacenter floors, because the automation has to survive contact with the machines it runs on. But the job is building and leading a team from day one — hiring your first engineers, coaching them, setting their growth paths, and running the rituals that keep quality high. As the team grows, the balance shifts toward people leadership, and you decide how fast. You shape this new team's charter and set the standard for how every future Mistral datacenter comes online. WHAT YOU WILL DO - Build the delivery pipeline in Go: provisioning, configuration, validation, burn-in, network bring-up, software stack install. - Build the team from scratch: make the first hires, onboard and coach them, own their performance and growth paths — and set the tooling standards and the playbook every future site reuses. - Own time-to-acceptance and drive it down relentlessly — measure it, break it down, kill the slowest step first. - Work shoulder-to-shoulder with Hardware Design and Fleet Health — reliability starts at delivery. - Handle GPU fleets at scale: H100 and GB200-class nodes, InfiniBand and RoCE fabrics, and the failure modes they bring. - Partner with Product Managers and the datacenter org to plan delivery waves against capacity commitments. WHAT WE'RE LOOKING FOR - You have automated bare-metal fleets — you have written the software that turns racks into clusters. If you have done it by hand, you resented it and scripted it. - Hardware fluency: servers, GPUs, NICs, switches, firmware — you can read a parts list and a topology diagram. - 8+ years building backend or infrastructure systems, with at least 2 years leading engineers — real people leadership: you have hired, coached, and grown engineers, not just set technical direction. - Deep Linux: you are comfortable well below the application layer. - You have shipped production systems in Go. Not dabbled. Shipped. - Willing to travel to datacenter sites when the work demands it. - A low-ego, team-first mindset. We care less about your exact domain and more about whether you are the kind of technical force other engineers want to work alongside. WHAT WE OFFER We offer a comprehensive benefits package designed to support your well-being, growth, and work-life balance.

European Compute Units let enterprises commit to multi-year capacity on that infrastructure, and we are scaling toward a gigawatt of compute across Europe by 2030. You will design and ship the layer every sovereign AI deployment depends on and shape the team building it. THE ROLE This is a people-leadership role from day one. You will manage the team — hiring, coaching, performance, growth paths, honest feedback — while staying close to the code: roughly half your time in architecture decisions and the hardest technical problems the team faces, the other half leading your squad. If you are looking for a senior IC role, this is not it. You will own our Kubernetes product end to end: a metal-to-on-demand platform built on in-house infrastructure, with GPU support for training, inference, and general-purpose compute. Kubernetes is our product, not just our platform — we run it on infrastructure we own end to end. You will decide how the control plane scales, how GPUs get scheduled, and how quickly a rack of bare metal becomes an on-demand cluster a customer can use. The decisions you make here shape how our infrastructure scales from today's footprint to a gigawatt, and how we turn frontier AI research into production systems used by millions. This is a role for an engineer who leads from the front because that is where the work is, not because management was the next rung on the ladder. WHAT YOU WILL DO - Design and ship the control plane. You build alongside your team and own the architecture and the hardest implementation decisions — scheduling, operators, provisioning, node lifecycle. - Grow the engineers, not just the software. You set the standard for ownership, remove the obstacles in their way, and coach them past their comfort zone until the work they ship surprises them. - Own the reliability of the Kubernetes control plane. It is the team's headline KPI. You make the calls when it breaks at 3am, and your engineers learn from how you do it. - Shrink the distance from metal to on-demand. Provisioning a cluster should be minutes of automation, not weeks of tickets. - Partner with Product Managers to set priorities, scope initiatives, and make the technical and business tradeoffs. - Own people management for the team: hiring, performance, growth paths, and honest feedback — the leadership work that never becomes someone else's job. - Define the team's processes and execution rituals as it grows. WHAT WE'RE LOOKING FOR - 2+ years of real people leadership. You have managed engineers — hired, coached, given honest feedback, and grown them. Hands-on contribution matters here, but this role is judged on the team you build and lead, not just the code you write. - You have shipped production systems in Go. Not dabbled. Shipped. - You have run Kubernetes in anger — and ideally built parts of it: operators, schedulers, controllers. You understand what happens underneath it, and you have worked on Linux directly, not just on managed services that sit on top of it. - You have run GPU workloads on Kubernetes, or you are confident you can own that domain fast. - You think like a developer who happens to build infrastructure, not an operator who manages it. You write code other engineers depend on. - Extensive experience building backend or infrastructure systems. - You have partnered with product, design, and business teams to ship software that reached real users. - A low-ego, team-first mindset.

You will design and ship the layer every sovereign AI deployment depends on and shape the team building it. THE ROLE This is a founding people-leadership role. There is no team to inherit and no legacy to maintain — you build the team as well as the stack, and you are accountable for both from day one. Early on you will be deliberately hands-on, because there is no one else to solve the hardest problems — but hiring your first engineers, coaching them, and setting their growth paths starts immediately, not later. If you are looking for a senior IC role, this is not it. You will be the founding Engineering Team Lead for storage on our cloud. Block, filesystem, and object storage for training runs, sandboxed workloads, and general compute: you decide what we build, what we buy, and how it adds up to storage our customers can bet a business on. Some layers we deploy and harden from best-in-class vendors. The ones that matter most we write ourselves in Go — S3-compatible object storage, tiering, backup and recovery, caching layers that put cold data on cheap spinning disks. As the team grows, the balance shifts toward people leadership, and you decide how fast. You will own capacity planning across datacenters and the architecture that keeps data durable when disks, networks, and entire sites fail. Storage is a strategic bet for this org: the team you build and the calls you make will define how a gigawatt of European compute stores its data. WHAT YOU WILL DO - Stand up the storage stack — block, file, object — for training, sandbox, and general compute workloads. - Make the build-vs-buy calls: deploy and harden vendor platforms where they win; design and write our own services in Go where they don't. - Own the data plane: allocation, duplication, tiering, backup and recovery, S3-compatible APIs. - Plan capacity across datacenters and across failure domains — petabytes, not terabytes. - Build the team from zero: make the first hires, onboard and coach them, own performance and growth paths, and set the standard for ownership. - Partner with Product Managers to shape the storage roadmap and make the technical and business tradeoffs. WHAT WE'RE LOOKING FOR - 2+ years of real people leadership. You have managed engineers — hired, coached, given honest feedback, and grown them. Hands-on contribution matters here, but this role is judged on the team you build and lead, not just the code you write. - You have built storage systems — object, block, or distributed filesystems — not just operated them. You know what happens when a disk dies mid-write and when a rebalance collides with a backup window. - Deep distributed-systems fundamentals: durability, consistency, replication, erasure coding, failure domains. - You have shipped production systems in Go. Systems engineers coming from C++ or Rust who are ready to write Go daily should still talk to us. - You are comfortable with hardware reality: HDD, SSD, and NVMe tiers, and the economics of each. - 8+ years building backend or infrastructure systems. - You have partnered with product, design, and business teams to ship software that reached real users. - A low-ego, team-first mindset.

Our customers in finance, healthcare, and the public sector run frontier models on European-jurisdiction infrastructure, and the Cloud Platform team builds the systems that make that possible — compute orchestration, Kubernetes, bare metal, storage, networking, and the datacenter fleet that runs it all. We run it all on our own metal, our own network, our own datacenters — which means when something breaks, the fix is ours to write. European Compute Units let enterprises commit to multi-year capacity on that infrastructure, and we are scaling toward a gigawatt of compute across Europe by 2030. You will design and ship the layer every sovereign AI deployment depends on and shape the team building it. THE ROLE This is a people-leadership role from day one. You will manage the team — hiring, coaching, performance, growth paths, honest feedback — while staying close to the code: roughly half your time in architecture decisions and the hardest technical problems the team faces, the other half leading your squad. If you are looking for a senior IC role, this is not it. AI agents don't run in browsers. They run in sandboxes — and you will lead the team building ours. We build secure, isolated, network-controlled environments with snapshotting primitives, designed for AI agents and reinforcement-learning workloads. An RL training run doesn't need one environment; it needs thousands, created and destroyed every second. An agent needs to be sandboxed from the world while still feeling fast enough to be useful. That tension — airtight isolation, at fleet scale, at low latency — is the product. Your customers are the people building the next generation of AI software on our infrastructure; the primitives you ship become the runtime their agents live in. WHAT YOU WILL DO - Build the isolation layer: microVMs or containers, namespaces, cgroups, seccomp, snapshot and restore. - Own the security boundary. Customers run code they didn't write and can't fully trust — your systems make that safe. - Scale to fleets: creation latency, density, and lifecycle management for thousands of concurrent environments. - Write Go alongside your team and own the architecture and the hardest implementation decisions. - Grow the engineers, not just the software — set the standard for ownership and coach people past their comfort zone. - Own people management for the team: hiring, performance, growth paths, and honest feedback. - Partner with Product Managers to turn frontier research needs into shippable primitives. WHAT WE'RE LOOKING FOR - 2+ years of real people leadership. You have managed engineers — hired, coached, given honest feedback, and grown them. Hands-on contribution matters here, but this role is judged on the team you build and lead, not just the code you write. - Deep Linux internals: namespaces, cgroups, seccomp, virtualization — ideally microVMs of the Firecracker class. - You have shipped production systems in Go. Not dabbled. Shipped. - You understand network isolation at the packet level — not just firewall rules. - Performance instincts: you know what a syscall costs, and you have the profiles to prove you've cared. - 8+ years building backend or infrastructure systems. - You have partnered with product, design, and business teams to ship software that reached real users. - A low-ego, team-first mindset. We care less about your exact domain and more about whether you are the kind of technical force other engineers want to work alongside.
