Position Overview 

Join the team building and operating NeoCloud’s SRE platform—the multi-region substrate that observes, protects, and operates a global GPU rental fleet across self-built and OEM-rented data centers.

As an Early Career Platform Software Engineer, you will work alongside senior engineers to turn architect-approved designs into production-ready code. You will ship features through GitOps and CI/CD pipelines, build within our Plugin Framework, help meet strict SLOs, and keep our infrastructure drift-free. This is a "build + run" role: you won’t just write code; you will help operate critical services that other squads, cloud teams, and tenants depend on, participating in a mentored on-call rotation as you grow.

Key Responsibilities

• Build & Maintain SRE Microservices: Collaborate with senior mentors to write, test, and deploy features across core platform components (e.g., collection agents, telemetry pipelines, alert engines, or cluster health services).
• GitOps & Automation: Deliver infrastructure and application updates using modern GitOps practices, declarative configuration, and automated CI/CD pipelines.
• Observability & Health: Help track, analyze, and optimize system metrics, logs, and traces to ensure high availability across our GPU infrastructure.
• Operational Readiness: Learn and participate in the on-call rotation for services built by your squad, writing clear runbooks and incident post-mortems.
• Testing & Quality: Write rigorous unit, integration, and end-to-end tests to ensure platform resilience before shipping to production.

Job Requirements

• Experience Level: Bachelor’s degree in Computer Science, Computer Engineering, or a related technical field (or equivalent practical experience / internships). 0–2 years of hands-on software development experience.
• Programming Skills: Proficiency in Go (preferred), Java, or Rust, along with solid scripting abilities in Python or Bash.
• Core CS Fundamentals: Strong foundational knowledge of data structures, algorithms, object-oriented design, and distributed systems concepts (e.g., APIs, concurrency, networking basics).
• Cloud & Containers: Hands-on exposure to Docker, Kubernetes, and Linux fundamentals through coursework, personal projects, open-source contributions, or internships.
• Testing Discipline: A mindset focused on quality—experience writing unit and integration tests for your own code.
• Communication & Collaboration: Strong technical writing skills for documenting design choices, runbooks, and clear Pull Request descriptions.

Nice-to-Haves / Strong Pluses

• Prior internship or project work involving Kubernetes Operators, Helm, or GitOps tools (ArgoCD / Flux).
• Exposure to time-series databases or observability tools (Prometheus, OpenTelemetry, Grafana, Loki).
• Basic familiarity with hardware, GPU/AI infrastructure (NVIDIA DCGM, CUDA), or high-performance computing concepts.
• Familiarity with infrastructure-as-code tools like Terraform or Ansible.
