Infrastructure Engineer (Equity-Based)

<p><strong>Company:</strong> Coherence OS<br><strong>Location:</strong> Remote (Global)<br><strong>Compensation:</strong> Equity-Only (Slicing Pie) → Cash at Break-Even</p> <p>We’re building Coherence OS because we believe the next era of technology requires more than speed and scale — it requires meaning, integrity, and systems that hold over time.</p> <p>This role isn’t for someone looking for a job. It’s for someone who wants to <strong>build infrastructure they can stand behind years from now</strong>, alongside a small, serious team that values fairness, clarity, and real ownership.</p> <p>We use the Slicing Pie model because it’s the only compensation system we’ve found that actually treats people like adults: contribution in equals ownership earned, dollar for dollar. If that resonates with you — not as a gamble, but as a principle — you’ll probably feel at home here.</p> <p><strong>About Coherence OS</strong></p> <p>Coherence OS is an AI-native operating system focused on preserving <strong>human meaning, identity, and ethical coherence</strong> in the age of advanced automation.</p> <p>We are building foundational infrastructure intended to support <strong>long-lived, global-scale systems</strong> — not short-term SaaS experiments.</p> <p>This role is for someone who wants to <strong>build the substrate</strong>, not just ship tickets.</p> <p></p> <p><strong>Company Stage & Visibility</strong><br></p> <p>Coherence OS is in its earliest build phase. We are intentionally operating with a minimal public footprint while core systems, filings, and internal foundations are being finalized.</p> <p>We do not have a public website yet. Full context about the company, mission, and roadmap will be shared during the interview process.</p> <p>This role is part of the initial engineering team and is best suited for candidates who are comfortable joining early, helping shape foundational systems, and building before everything is public.<br></p> <h1><br></h1> <h1>Position</h1> <p>We are seeking a skilled <strong>Infrastructure Engineer</strong> to design, build, and maintain the infrastructure that powers our applications and services.
