About Blacksmith
At Blacksmith, we revolutionize CI workload infrastructure, delivering unparalleled speed and cost-effectiveness through our proprietary fleet of global bare-metal machines, which eliminates the need for generic cloud VMs.
We successfully orchestrate tens of millions of Firecracker VMs monthly, supporting over 1,200 companies while achieving approximately $10 million in annual recurring revenue in under two years.
Our operations span thousands of bare-metal machines across various regions, managing a petabyte-scale Ceph cluster and consistently scheduling over 30,000 vCPUs concurrently.
Backed by $13.5 million in funding from notable investors such as Google Ventures (GV), we are focused on cultivating a small yet exceptional team.
Founded by experts with extensive experience in systems and scaling, including roles at Faire and Cockroach Labs, we are expanding our CI infrastructure into a comprehensive platform that includes running agent sandboxes at scale and developing our own background coding agent.
