Infrastructure Software Engineer

Nebius is leading a new era in cloud infrastructure for the global AI economy. We are building a full-stack AI cloud platform that supports developers and enterprises from data and model training through to production deployment, without the cost and complexity of building large in-house AI/ML infrastructure.

Built by engineers, for engineers. From large-scale GPU orchestration to inference optimization, we own the hard problems across compute, storage, networking and applied AI.

Listed on Nasdaq (NBIS) and headquartered in Amsterdam, we have a global footprint with R&D hubs across Europe, the UK, North America and Israel. Our team of 1,500+ includes hundreds of engineers with deep expertise across hardware, software and AI R&D.

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.
