Apify's mission is to help anyone get more value from the web with automation, AI agents, and web scraping.
Why?
We believe that humans have better things to do than filling forms, compiling huge Excel sheets of copy-pasted data, or watching thousands of videos to determine whether they include a specific brand logo.
Those are jobs for machines.
And just as in the real world, we have tools that make our lives easier, we should have tools to make our lives easier on the web.
Web automation has a profound impact. Our users automate service unsubscriptions to save people money, and they collect billions of rows of data from all over the world for AI training, protection of consumers, or finding lost children. We give AI chatbots the context to interact intelligently, and we're developing novel ways to work with AI agents and MCP.
To support our mission, we're looking for a talented Cloud Infrastructure Engineer to help us build and maintain our scalable cloud architecture, optimize system performance, and improve the developer experience that powers Apify's web automation platform.
Your role will be improving our core infrastructure, identifying bottlenecks, running experiments, and implementing new ways to increase system performance and developer efficiency.
Apify is built for developers by developers. We use the Apify platform ourselves every day and put great pride in making it better for everyone. We're big advocates of open source and publish everything we can on GitHub (PRs are welcome).
