Infrastructure Software Engineer
About The Position
Nebius is leading a new era in cloud computing to serve the global AI economy. We create the tools and resources our customers need to solve real-world challenges and transform industries, without massive infrastructure costs or the need to build large in-house AI/ML teams. Our employees work at the cutting edge of AI cloud infrastructure alongside some of the most experienced and innovative leaders and engineers in the field. Nebius operates large-scale, mission-critical bare-metal infrastructure. As a Software Engineer (Python), you will design and build systems that provision, configure, test, and manage physical hardware at scale. Your work will sit close to the metal—interfacing directly with servers, networks, and management controllers—while supporting highly automated, reliable infrastructure operations. You will collaborate closely with hardware, networking, and data center operations teams to ensure our platforms are robust, scalable, and production ready.
