Infrastructure Software Engineer

Backend Developer • Remote • Full-time • 📍 Switzerland

As the engineer owning the software behind Namespace's hardware, you build the control planes, automation, and observability that keep 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
  • Architect the network — design and evolve a high-throughput, low-latency fabric
  • 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 with product, infra, and platform teams on features like storage-aware scheduling and cache volumes

Requirements

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