About vCluster Labs
What is vCluster Labs?
vCluster Labs builds "the software layer that turns hardware into a cloud". The company trades as vCluster Labs and its legal entity is Loft Labs, Inc. dba vCluster Labs; it was previously called Loft Labs, and loft.sh now redirects to vcluster.com. Its about page states the mission as "Everyone should be able to run infrastructure like a hyperscaler." and shows "40M+ Tenant clusters created 30K+ Github stars 5K+ Slack channel members" for its open-source work. A press release of 21 October 2026 on its own site describes it as "the platform operators use to build and run their own AI cloud, like a hyperscaler", trusted by "fast-growing AI cloud providers including Nebius, Groq, Firmus and Corvex" and by "enterprises including Adobe, Samsung and Deloitte". The company's own blog announced a "$4.6 Million Seed Funding" round and a "$24M Series A led by Khosla Ventures", and its adverts say it has "raised over $28M".
Where will I work?
vCluster Labs is fully remote. The careers page says "Our global remote-first culture is built for the best talent, wherever you are" and "As a fully remote, globally distributed team, we give you the flexibility to work from where you are, without the need to relocate or commute." Every advert adds "Our headquarters are in San Francisco (Salesforce Tower), but our team is distributed around the globe with a remote-first culture." The contact page lists a San Francisco office at 415 Mission Street (Salesforce Tower, Floor 37) and a New York City office at 205 Hudson Street. On 12 November 2026 the Ashby job board listed 36 open roles, every one flagged as remote: 15 have a United States primary location, 15 are labelled just "Remote" (Ashby gives them a New York address, but four of them list only Singapore, Australia or the United Arab Emirates as their extra location), three are for EMEA, and one each for Germany, the United Kingdom and Singapore; several also list extra eligible locations such as Canada, EMEA, the United Arab Emirates, Singapore and Australia.
What is the vCluster Labs team like?
A Director of HR advert asks for policies and lifecycle processes that "take us from 130 people to 250 and beyond" at "a company that doubled in a year and employs people in 21 countries", and mentions a team in Germany and an employer-of-record (EOR) setup. The about page says "We are a remote-first company deeply rooted in and committed to open source" and lists values such as "Own the Outcome", "Make it Happen", "Create Wow" and "Open Source, Open Mind". The 36 open roles sit in engineering, customer engineering, sales, marketing, partnerships and ecosystems, product, revenue operations and administration. The careers page describes hiring as "decisions made in days, not months" and lists six steps: "Application Review", "Talent Screening", "Department Screening", "Panel Interview", "The Challenge" and "Executive Interview & Offer".
Work-Life Balance
The schedule wording sits on the careers page and in all 36 live adverts under "Flexible Working Schedule": "You have a doctor’s appointment or need to head to the supermarket to get groceries at 2pm? We won’t have an issue with that. To us, results matter more than clocking in and out at the same time every day." The adverts add a "Workplace Flexibility" line about being very flexible on where you work, and the careers page says "Work isn’t a place, it’s what you do." No core-hours window or required overlap is published on the careers page or in any advert, but two roles carry their own hours lines: the Revenue Operations Specialist advert says "own the Salesforce request queue during US hours", and the Sr. Director, APAC Partnerships & Ecosystems advert asks you to "work on your own across time zones with a US-based leadership team". No leave allowance or public-holiday policy is published on the careers page or in the adverts.
