I’m Meg, a Software Engineer at Thermify. We’re building an unconventional cloud platform at Thermify. Instead of a conventional data centre, we're distributing the servers into UK homes, and recovering their waste heat for low-cost, low-carbon heating & hot water.

We're looking for a handful of DevOps engineers willing to put it to the test this winter.

The challenge: bring an ARM64 docker workload, deploy it, benchmark it, and tell us where it succeeds or fails.

Best fits:

Batch processing

CI/CD runners

Data pipelines

Short-lived containerised jobs

Small-model CPU inference.

The Parameters:

CPU only workloads

Non-sensitive data

No hard real-time requirements

Non-production critical workloads

We're an early-stage platform, not a mature hyper-scale replacement (yet!).

What you get:

Free compute.

Direct access to our engineering team.

Input into how the platform develops.

No endorsements required. No expectation of positive reviews.…
