## Description

About the Role As a Staff Software Engineer within our Compute Architecture organization, you will help build the software systems that operate the backbone of our large-scale GPU data centers.
The METALDEV team builds Go-based distributed services that bring new infrastructure online, manage hardware lifecycle workflows, monitor production health, and automate safe operations across fleets of GPU servers and rack-scale systems.
This is a software-first role at the intersection of distributed systems, production reliability, and hardware-aware automation, where your work directly improves the reliability, safety, and scalability of real-world infrastructure.
What You'll Do Design, build, and operate Go-based services that manage the lifecycle of large-scale GPU data center infrastructure.
Build automation for data center bring-up, hardware discovery, health monitoring, remediation, and production operations.
Develop reliable APIs, services, and workflows for managing BMCs, firmware state, server health, and rack-level infrastructure.
Improve observability, alerting, and operational tooling so production issues can be detected, understood, and resolved quickly.
Translate incidents and hardware failure modes into software improvements that make the platform more resilient.
Partner with hardware-adjacent, infrastructure, operations, and software teams to design systems that work safely at fleet scale.
Provide technical leadership through design reviews, code reviews, architectural guidance, and mentorship.
Make pragmatic architecture decisions that balance reliability, simplicity, scalability, and operational burden.
