NICE TO HAVE * Experience building platform components that run across varied deployment environments, including customer-controlled ones. * Experience running workloads across more than one runtime: cloud Kubernetes plus HPC schedulers (Slurm or similar) or bare metal. * GPU scheduling or multi-tenant cluster experience. * GitOps and progressive-delivery patterns (ArgoCD, Flux, staged rollouts). * Experience packaging or serving ML models, or supporting ML and data workloads on a shared platform. * Exposure to scientific computing, simulation, or other large-scale technical workloads. ## Description This role builds what the rest of Elemynt's engineering runs on: the cloud infrastructure, the core platform services, and the observability that keeps the product reliable. The platform runs wherever each customer chooses, whether that's their cloud, their own compute, or a hybrid, and usually inside environments they operate themselves. That's the hard part. The foundations you build have to be reproducible, measurable, and carry their own security wherever they land. This is a deeply hands-on, build-focused senior role. In this role, you'll design and own the cloud substrate, the services at the core of the product, and the metrics, logs, and traces that keep all of it visible. Those building blocks are what gets packaged and deployed wherever the platform needs to run, so the care you put in shows up in every install. How fast and how safely the whole company can ship depends on how solid these foundations are. ## Related Videos - [Running Secure Life Science Research at Scale using Hybrid GPU HPC and Kubernetes 🧬](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/videos/100355-running-secure-life-science-research-at-scale-using-hybrid-gpu-hpc-and-kubernetes) - [One Platform Could Not Fit Them All](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/videos/1919-one-platform-could-not-fit-them-all) - [Developing the Backend with Stefan Lingler, CTO at Shpock](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/videos/100360-developing-the-backend-with-stefan-lingler-cto-at-shpock) - [5 steps for running a Kubernetes environment at scale](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/videos/88-5-steps-for-running-a-kubernetes-environment-at-scale) - [Empowering Thousands of Developers: Our Journey to an Internal Developer Platform](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/videos/1519-empowering-thousands-of-developers-our-journey-to-an-internal-developer-platform) - [Nest.js - TypeScript in the backend can also be clean](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/videos/1033-nest-js-typescript-in-the-backend-can-also-be-clean) ## Related Articles - [The Best X (Twitter) Accounts for Developers](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/magazine/294-the-best-x-twitter-accounts-for-developers) - [Highest Paying Tech Companies for Developers](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/magazine/220-highest-paying-tech-companies-for-developers) - [Why Upskilling And Reskilling is Important For Developers](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/magazine/428-why-upskilling-and-reskilling-is-important-for-developers) - [Fully Remote Software Engineer Jobs](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/magazine/447-fully-remote-software-engineer-jobs) - [7 Cloud Computing Trends Coming in 2025 for Developers](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/magazine/412-7-cloud-computing-trends-coming-in-2025-for-developers) - [What Are The Top Skills Required For Azure Developers?](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/magazine/77-what-are-the-top-skills-required-for-azure-developers)
