Wonka

Engineering Location not specified Remote Posted Mar 24, 2026

Description

Here's the deal.

Keep Wonka running — and make it faster. You'll own our infrastructure, CI/CD pipelines, monitoring, and deployment processes. We're scaling quickly, and reliability is everything when customers depend on us for their hiring.

We're using Wonka to hire you. That's not a gimmick — it's how we work. You're experiencing our product firsthand.


What Wonka is

Wonka is an AI-powered recruitment platform that replaces gut-feel screening with structured, bias-reducing assessments. Recruiters create custom evaluations. Candidates show what they can actually do. Our AI ranks them. Better hires, less guesswork, way less wasted time.

We're early-stage, moving fast, and backed by people who believe hiring is fundamentally broken and fixable.


What we're looking for

  • Cloud platforms — deep experience with AWS or GCP in production environments, not just side projects.

  • Containerization — Docker and Kubernetes — you've run them in production and cleaned up when they broke.

  • Infrastructure-as-code — Terraform fluency. You write it, you don't just copy it.

  • Automation instinct — if you're doing something twice, you're already writing the script.

  • Bonus — you've managed infrastructure for a SaaS product at scale and have the scars to show for it.


What it's like here

  • Small team, big ownership. No 'that's not my job' energy.

  • We ship fast. Your pipelines will be used constantly.

  • Radical candor is the default. We say what we mean and assume good intent.

  • Remote-first. We care about output, not online hours.

  • You'll use Wonka every day — and your feedback will shape the product.


What we offer

  • Competitive equity — you're not joining a company, you're building one.

  • Flexible comp structure based on stage and role.

  • The kind of work that actually matters on a team that actually cares.

  • Direct access to founders and real influence on product direction.

  • A front-row seat to reshaping how the world hires.
