Infrastructure Software Engineer

Backend Developer • Remote • Full-time • 📍 Switzerland

Namespace Labs is looking for an infrastructure software engineer to own the software that drives its hardware fleet — control planes, automation, and observability — keeping the global fleet fast, efficient, and reliable.

Responsibilities

  • Manage and automate the fleet – build services for provisioning, health checks, upgrades, and incident remediation
  • Uphold reliability – embed observability, graceful degradation, and rollback paths into every layer you touch
  • Architect the network – design and evolve a high-throughput, low-latency fabric tailored to high-performance use cases
  • Ship software, not scripts – develop clean, testable code (mostly Go) that treats the fleet like a first-class API
  • Drive efficiency – improve utilization and power-to-performance ratios so capacity grows slower than usage
  • Partner across the stack – work with product, infra, and platform teams to scope and deliver features like storage-aware scheduling and cache volumes

Requirements

  • Proven experience engineering large-scale infrastructure - writing the software that runs fleets, not just operating existing hyperscalers
  • Depth in network architecture, data-center design, and performance tuning
  • Hands-on time deploying and managing compute hardware at scale (servers, switches, etc.)
  • Fluency with modern orchestration and automation tooling (Kubernetes, Terraform, Ansible), plus the judgment to know when to build vs. buy
  • A track record of delivering reliable systems and measurable efficiency gains

Soft skills

Grit and ownershipStrong execution focusCuriosity about how systems work and can be improved

What we offer

  • Competitive salary and stock options
  • Flexible working hours
  • Market-leading parental leave
