About this role

Role Overview

The Staff Software Engineer position at Crusoe in Dublin is a full-time cloud engineering role focused on building the Conductor self-driving control plane. This opportunity suits an experienced software engineer who wants to design autonomous systems that optimize power and AI compute efficiency in real time.

Key Responsibilities

Design, build, and operate greenfield distributed services, control planes, and closed-loop remediation systems that automatically drain, checkpoint, replace, and resume live AI workloads without manual intervention.
Partner closely with staff and principal engineers to review architectures, establish safety rails for autonomous operations, and share technical knowledge across the cloud services team.
Collaborate daily with cross-functional partners spanning hardware engineering, energy management, data center construction, and customer support to align system design with physical infrastructure.
Own the development of core platform features such as unified observability pipelines, energy-aware compute scheduling, straggler detection, and self-qualifying hardware pipelines to maximize overall system goodput.

Requirements

Minimum of 2+ years of experience building, shipping, and operating backend or infrastructure systems in production, such as distributed services, control planes, schedulers, or observability pipelines.
Demonstrated mastery of state reconciliation, retries and idempotency, consistency tradeoffs, and autonomous automation on live infrastructure.
Strong engineering fundamentals using a modern systems language such as Go, Rust, or C++.
High comfort level working through ambiguous problem statements, proposing clear designs, and driving features from concept to production.
A strong bias toward action and iterative delivery, favoring practical production software over over-engineered documentation.
Bachelor's degree or equivalent practical experience in Computer Science, Engineering, or a related technical discipline.

Nice to Have

Hands-on experience or deep familiarity with GPU health telemetry, NVLink/InfiniBand/RoCE networking fabrics, or hardware thermal and power behavior.
Prior experience designing scalable observability and telemetry pipelines that span compute, storage, and networking layers.
Familiarity or direct exposure to Kubernetes internals, Slurm, or other distributed orchestrator ecosystems.
Experience applying statistical methods, anomaly detection, or time-series forecasting to noisy operational data for predictive maintenance.
Knowledge of zero-trust architectures, policy-based access systems, or automated multi-tenant audit streaming.
