Job description

We are looking for an experienced Software Development Manager to lead backend engineering and agentic AI initiatives for Rack Navigator - MSI's next-generation platform for autonomous datacenter operations.

This role combines hands-on technical leadership with team management, focused on building scalable backend systems and intelligent agents that automate infrastructure provisioning, diagnostics, and lifecycle management. You will lead a team of engineers developing AI-driven workflows that interact with real-world datacenter systems at rack scale., Technical Leadership & Architecture

  • Lead the design and development of backend services, APIs, and microservices powering Rack Navigator.
  • Define architecture for agentic AI systems that orchestrate infrastructure workflows (provisioning, validation, diagnostics, remediation).
  • Drive design decisions for scalability, reliability, and performance across distributed infrastructure systems.
  • Establish best practices for system design, observability, and fault tolerance.

Agentic AI & Infrastructure Automation

  • Oversee development of AI-driven agents that interact with infrastructure control planes, telemetry systems, and hardware APIs.
  • Guide the implementation of automation for rack-scale diagnostics, health monitoring, and failure analysis.
  • Ensure seamless integration between AI workflows and datacenter infrastructure (compute, storage, networking).

Team Leadership & Execution

  • Build, mentor, and manage a high-performing backend engineering team.
  • Drive sprint planning, execution, and delivery of key platform capabilities.
  • Set clear goals, provide technical direction, and foster a culture of ownership and innovation.
  • Balance hands-on coding/reviews with strategic leadership responsibilities.

Platform & Engineering Excellence

  • Hands-on experience with infrastructure automation (Ansible, Python, Shell).
  • Solid understanding of datacenter infrastructure (compute, networking, storage).
  • Strong problem-solving and debugging skills in complex environments., * Experience building or leading teams developing agentic AI systems or LLM-driven automation.
  • Familiarity with modern AI orchestration frameworks and "vibe coding" environments (rapid prototyping with AI-assisted development tools).
  • Experience with GPU clusters, HPC systems, or rack-scale architectures.
  • Background in diagnostics, system validation, or hardware-software integration.
  • Experience with DevOps practices, CI/CD pipelines, and infrastructure-as-code.
  • Knowledge of networking architectures (spine-leaf, VLANs, routing).
