About Ubicloud

Ubicloud is an open source cloud that can run anywhere. Our cloud services include elastic compute, block storage, virtual networking and firewalls, managed Postgres, and powerful IAM.

Ubicloud provides these services on bare metal providers, such as Hetzner, Leaseweb, or AWS Bare Metal. You can self-host our software or use our managed service to reduce your cloud costs by 3-10x.

About the role

Skills: Kubernetes

Ubicloud is building an open source alternative to AWS. We’re looking for a very specific person who can build and lead a managed Kubernetes service.

If you meet the following criteria or know someone who does, we’d love to talk to you!

Held a substantial role in building the managed K8s solutions at Rancher, Platform9, Spectro Cloud, Rafay, or has equivalent experience. (We’re also happy to talk to you if held a similar role at EKS, AKS, GKE, etc. Please keep in mind that simplicity is in our tech DNA.)
You can build a Managed K8s MVP that we could soft-launch to an internal YC crowd
Motivated, talented, and have a growth mindset

Technology

Ubicloud follows an established pattern in building public cloud services. A control plane manages a data plane, where the data plane usually leverages open source software.

Our control plane uses Ruby, the Roda framework, and PostgreSQL.

Our data plane uses well-established open source projects for each service. Our compute service Linux KVM, cloud-init, and Cloud Hypervisor. Block storage uses SPDK, virtual networking reprograms Linux kernel subsystems, and Managed Postgres uses well, Postgres.

We're on a mission to rebuild the cloud market with different values. We're just starting and we're looking for driven and talented individuals.
