About the job
About Blockit
At Blockit, we recognize that time is our most precious resource, yet the art of scheduling often feels antiquated. Our mission is to revolutionize this process through advanced AI technology that acts as an autonomous time agent, adeptly managing the complexities of scheduling—including time zones, group coordination, and logistical considerations—as though it were an ever-vigilant executive assistant.
As pioneers in the AI space, Blockit is at the forefront of developing one of the first multiplayer, stateful AI agents capable of facilitating interactions among multiple users, maintaining contextual continuity across conversations, and executing real-world actions. The more users integrate their calendars, the more robust our network becomes.
Join our dynamic team, supported by Sequoia, where we maintain a fast-paced environment, consistently ship innovative solutions, and uphold high standards of excellence. If you’re excited about building groundbreaking technology, we would love to connect with you.

The Role
In this role, you will ensure that Blockit remains fast, reliable, and primed for scalability.
You will take ownership of our core infrastructure, which includes databases, asynchronous job processing, observability, and the systems that drive our AI agents, including the LLM gateway. You will architect solutions as we expand, whether that means integrating new systems or innovating entirely new approaches. Furthermore, you will be the go-to person for reliability and performance, ensuring our systems remain robust as usage increases.
This position is perfect for someone who is passionate about operational excellence and eager to lay the groundwork for a platform that orchestrates millions of calendars.
What You’ll Do
- Manage and evolve our core infrastructure, including PostgreSQL, Clickhouse, and asynchronous processing pipelines.
- Design and optimize our LLM infrastructure, which encompasses the LLM gateway, evaluation pipelines, and observability stack, to guarantee reliability, performance, and cost-effectiveness.
- Develop comprehensive monitoring, alerting, and dashboard solutions to promptly identify issues.
- Architect and implement new infrastructure as we scale, such as Redis, Kafka, or similar systems, making informed trade-offs along the way.
- Enhance deployment pipelines and developer experiences to maintain rapid and safe shipping of updates.
