Senior or Staff Backend Engineer building distributed control-plane services for a network automation platform powering AI clouds, using Node.js, Go, and databases like MariaDB/MySQL.
Netris is the leading network automation platform for AI clouds. AI is the largest infrastructure buildout in history, and networking is its bottleneck. Netris is the automation and multi‑tenancy layer for AI cloud networking, enabling operators to launch GPU clouds in weeks, provision tenants instantly, and maximize GPU utilization. The company experienced 800% ARR growth in the last 12 months, with 35+ live GPU cluster deployments globally and growing, and is backed by Andreessen Horowitz. SDN reinvented data center networking, and Netris is doing it for the AI cloud with NAAM: Network Automation, Abstraction, and Multi‑Tenancy.
We are looking for a senior backend engineer to help design, own, and build the distributed control‑plane services behind the Netris platform.
This role requires strong backend engineering fundamentals, hands‑on distributed systems experience, and the ability to translate high‑level infrastructure requirements into scalable, production‑grade system designs and implementations.
Engineers in this role are expected to take ownership across architecture, implementation, reliability, observability, and long‑term system evolution within a fast‑moving infrastructure startup environment.
