Bitdeer Technologies Group is hiring a Senior Software Engineer - Cloud

Senior Software Engineer responsible for designing, developing, and maintaining core cloud platform services at Bitdeer Technologies Group. The role focuses on cloud-native infrastructure, distributed systems, and scalable backend services to support Bitcoin mining and AI cloud solutions.

What You'll Do

• Design, develop, and maintain core cloud platform services including compute orchestration, resource management, multi-tenancy, and API gateway components using Go, Java, Python, or Rust.
• Build and optimize RESTful/gRPC APIs and microservices that support cloud resource provisioning, lifecycle management, and monitoring on Bitdeer AI Cloud.
• Develop scalable, fault-tolerant distributed systems that handle high-throughput workloads across multi-region deployments.
• Implement service mesh, rate limiting, authentication, and authorization mechanisms for cloud platform services.
• Write clean, well-tested, and well-documented code following software engineering best practices (CI/CD, code review, TDD).
• Improve the efficiency of container orchestration, automate operational workflows, and ensure system reliability.
• Apply engineering management principles to enhance organizational performance.
• Apply research, design, and ethical engineering practices in container and cloud-native technologies.
• Design and implement cloud-native architectures using Kubernetes, Docker, and container orchestration platforms.
• Develop and maintain Infrastructure-as-Code (IaC) solutions using Terraform, Pulumi, or similar tools for automated provisioning and environment management.
• Build and optimize CI/CD pipelines for automated testing, building, and deployment of cloud services.
• Implement service discovery, configuration management, and secrets management for distributed cloud environments.
• Collaborate with SRE and infrastructure teams to ensure high availability (99.9%+ uptime), disaster recovery, and capacity planning.
• Design and implement data access layers and storage solutions for cloud platform services, including relational databases (PostgreSQL, MySQL), NoSQL (MongoDB, DynamoDB), and caching systems (Redis, Memcached).
• Optimize database queries, indexing strategies, and connection pooling for high-performance cloud applications.
• Implement data migration, backup, and recovery strategies for multi-tenant cloud environments.
• Implement comprehensive observability solutions including distributed tracing, structured logging, and metrics collection using Prometheus, Grafana, Jaeger, and ELK stack.
• Design and build alerting mechanisms and SLI/SLO frameworks for proactive issue detection and service reliability.
• Conduct performance profiling, load testing, and capacity planning to ensure system scalability and efficiency.
• Participate in on-call rotations and incident response, driving root cause analysis and post-mortem improvements.
• Collaborate with AI platform, product, and infrastructure teams to define technical requirements and deliver integrated solutions.
• Plan, organize, and control large-scale engineering projects in the cloud computing domain.
• Participate in architecture design reviews, code reviews, and technical discussions to maintain high engineering standards.
• Mentor junior engineers and contribute to team knowledge sharing through documentation, tech talks, and best practice guides.
• Evaluate and adopt new technologies, frameworks, and tools to continuously improve the cloud platform's capabilities.

What We're Looking For

• Bachelor's or Master's degree in Computer Science, Software Engineering, Electrical Engineering, or related field.
• Minimum 5 years of professional experience in software engineering, with at least 3 years focused on cloud platform development, distributed systems, or backend services at scale.
• Strong proficiency in one or more backend programming languages: Go, Java, Python, or Rust, with demonstrated experience building production-grade cloud services.
• Deep experience with cloud-native technologies including Kubernetes, Docker, microservices architecture, and service mesh (Istio, Envoy, Linkerd).
• Solid understanding of distributed systems concepts: consensus algorithms, eventual consistency, sharding, replication, and fault tolerance.
• Experience with major cloud platforms (AWS, GCP, or Azure), particularly in designing and operating large-scale cloud services and infrastructure.
• Strong knowledge of database technologies (PostgreSQL, MySQL, MongoDB, Redis) and experience with data modeling, query optimization, and storage system design.
• Proficiency in CI/CD tools and practices (GitHub Actions, Jenkins, ArgoCD) and Infrastructure-as-Code (Terraform, Pulumi).
• Experience with observability and monitoring tools (Prometheus, Grafana, Jaeger, ELK) and SRE practices.
• Knowledge of cloud security best practices, including authentication/authorization (OAuth, JWT, RBAC), encryption, and compliance standards (SOC 2, ISO 27001).
• Strong problem-solving skills, excellent communication abilities, and a collaborative mindset with the ability to work effectively in a globally distributed team.
