Practical foundations for everything we build.

Meet the DevOps Team

We keep IPRally’s systems reliable and efficient, supporting everything from machine learning experiments to smooth day-to-day development.
🎯 What we’re here to do
Our work sits at the intersection of engineering, data, and research.

We maintain the tools and platforms that power our ML workflows, streamline software development, and reduce friction across the company. From our ML platform to CI/CD pipelines: if it runs in the background, we’ve likely had a hand in it.
🧪 How we work
We take a calm, proactive approach to operations. We support what’s needed, but we also make time for projects that improve things long-term. Whether it’s tuning a data pipeline or improving how we use Kubernetes, we aim for solutions that are reliable and maintainable.
⚙️ Our tools & tech
We rely on a solid, modern stack, chosen for flexibility and maintainability:

Dagster

Data workflow orchestration

Vespa.ai

Text search engine & vector database

Ray

Distributed compute for research and production

Kubernetes

Container orchestration at scale

GitHub Actions

Build, test, deploy automation

GCP

Cloud infrastructure and services
💡 What guides us

🛡 Learn from incidents

We try to understand and learn from every issue, not just patch and forget.

🧭 Own the work

If we build it, we also maintain it. No handoffs or silos.

📈 Small improvements matter

We believe steady progress beats big overhauls.

📝 Keep it clear

Good documentation saves time, for us and others.
📚 What new teammates usually ask
Is it all firefighting and bug fixing?
No. We handle incidents when needed, but most of our time is spent improving systems and workflows.
Is there an on-call rotation?
Not currently. We use monitoring and alerts, but we’re not staffed for 24/7 support.
Do I get to influence technical decisions?
Yes, it’s expected. We're small enough that everyone’s voice shapes how we build.
How often do you work with other teams?
Often. We collaborate closely with AI, Product, and others to make sure things run smoothly.
What kind of projects will I get to work on?
Infrastructure automation, developer tooling, ML pipelines, system reliability, whatever helps the company work better.
What’s the working setup?
Hybrid and remote-friendly. Flexibility is built in, just like our systems.
What does the team focus on?
We make things run smoothly. That means ML enablement, infrastructure that scales, and a developer experience that doesn’t get in the way.
