Senior Software Engineer, Platform Infrastructure

About the role

Moonlite builds the infrastructure behind ambitious AI.

We design, deploy, and operate high-performance GPU systems for large-scale model training, computational research, and intensive data workloads. We combine bare-metal performance with the reliability and simplicity teams expect from the cloud.

What’s next in AI needs matching infrastructure. We’re building the team to make it happen.

Your Role:

You will be foundational to building the comprehensive infrastructure platform that bridges our physical infrastructure – bare-metal servers, GPU clusters, high-performance storage, and networking fabric – with the systems our customers depend on for large-scale computation, inference, simulations, and training. Working closely with product, your platform team members, and infrastructure specialists, you’ll design and implement the orchestration layer, APIs, and automation framework that make thousands of servers, petabytes of storage, and high-speed networks feel like a unified, programmable platform.

Job Responsibilities

- Infrastructure Abstraction Layer: Design and build systems that bridge physical infrastructure (bare-metal servers, storage clusters, network fabric) with customer-facing services, enabling programmatic management of compute, networking, and storage at scale.

- Research Cluster Provisioning: Design and implement systems for provisioning and managing research computing environments including Kubernetes and SLURM clusters, enabling automated deployment, resource scheduling, and workload orchestration for distributed AI training and HPC workloads.

- Platform Orchestration: Implement comprehensive orchestration systems that coordinate across compute, storage and networking to deliver unified experience for complex research workloads.

- Network Automation & Placement: Design and build network provisioning automation including intelligent VM placement decisions for optimal network topology, automated VLAN and subnet configuration, and software-designed networking orchestration for high-performance interconnects.

- Enterprise APIs & SDKs: Develop robust APIs and SDKs that enable researchers and engineering teams to programmatically provision and manage infrastructure resources across all platform domains.

- Observability & Telemetry: Implement comprehensive observability, telemetry, and logging systems that provide visibility into infrastructure health, performance, and utilization across the infrastructure footprint.

- Performance Engineering: Build and optimize platform services that deliver consistent high-throughput low-latency networking for demand research applications and data-intensive workloads.

- Cross-Team Collaboration: Work closely with engineering, infrastructure, and product to define requirements, drive infrastructure-product-rollouts, and improve resource lifecycle management.

- Compliance & Security: Implement platform-wide compliance and security features supporting SOC 2, ISO 27001, and enterprise regulatory requirements including comprehensive audit logging, access controls, and data residency management.
