About the role

Role focused on building and operating software stacks and multi-service production systems to support data center operations for frontier AI training and inference, partnering with SiteOps, NOC, and infrastructure teams to transform operational data into actionable insight.

Responsibilities

  • Build and operate the software stacks that make site operations scalable, auditable, and fast — including repair trackers, vendor turnback workflows, operational dashboards, and their integrations.
  • Design, build, and operate multi-service production systems (UI, APIs, data pipelines, auth, and on-call) for systems such as SRT-style repair/maintenance trackers and vendor turnover/turnback state machines.
  • Own correctness of operational state: node state accuracy, queue ownership, and audit trails — the data that decides what work happens on the floor.
  • Build and maintain integrations with ticketing, inventory/rack systems, telemetry stores, and vendor portals.
  • Keep the tools themselves reliable: uptime, data integrity, reconciliation, access control, and safe deploys.
  • Embed with SiteOps and NOC users; measure workflow adoption, not just feature delivery.

Qualifications

  • Bachelor’s degree in Computer Science, Engineering, or related fields.
  • 3+ years building and operating production software (backend and/or full-stack).
  • Strong fundamental knowledge of computer science - data structures, algorithms, operating systems and networking.
  • Strong proficiency in at least one programming language e.g. Rust, Python, JavaScript, Java, C++, etc.
  • Experience designing and developing RESTful APIs for mission-critical applications.
  • Experience working with at least one database like Postgres, MongoDB, MySQL, DynamoDB, etc.
  • Experience collaborating with cross-functional teams.
  • Experience working in cloud platforms like GCP, Microsoft Azure, AWS, OCI or similar.
  • Experience using observability tools and dashboards like New Relic, Splunk, Grafana, etc.
  • Experience writing unit tests and integration tests.
