The role

We’re looking for a Software Engineer with strong C++ expertise to join the team building and operating Nebius Data Platform — a distributed storage and a processing platform that acts as the company’s “source of truth” and the backbone of many internal (and some external) products.

Nebius Data Platform is a single multi-tenant ecosystem based on YTsaurus — instead of running separate HDFS/Kafka/HBase-style systems, we provide storage, compute, and analytics capabilities inside one platform.

Built on top of the open-source YTsaurus ecosystem, we run and extend our own Nebius distribution and develop significant in-house functionality (core and platform-level). We can design, implement, and roll out features end-to-end on our clusters without waiting for upstream approvals and contribute upstream when it makes sense.

At scale today, this includes~500 servers, ~20k CPU cores and ~10 PB of compressed data in our largest production cluster, supporting workloads ranging from business-critical pipelines and financial transactions to large-scale ML/LLM training datasets and compute.

What’s inside the platform

You’ll work on a system that includes (and ties together):

• Distributed Storage (Cypress): transactional semantics, tiered storage, erasure coding, replication, and strong reliability expectations.
• Compute & ETL: a cluster-wide job scheduler (tens of thousands of cores), MapReduce, YQL for SQL-like data processing, and SPYT (Spark over YTsaurus) for modern data engineering.
• Interactive analytics (CHYT): ClickHouse® instances spun up directly on compute nodes for fast SQL over data in-place.
• Dynamic Tables: low-latency NoSQL KV with distributed ACID transactions for OLTP-style workloads and feature stores.
• Orchestracto: workflow orchestration deeply integrated with the platform (Airflow-like, but platform-native).

What you’ll do

We’re looking for engineers who combine strong systems skills with product sense: understanding who uses the platform, why certain capabilities matter, and making pragmatic trade-offs to maximize impact. On our team, engineering work is expected to be connected to real users and outcomes — you’ll regularly align with internal stakeholders, clarify requirements, and help drive prioritization.

In this role, you will:

• Design and implement new functionality in YTsaurus core (C++) with production reliability in mind.
• Build and evolve platform-level capabilities: platform architecture and operating model—multi-cluster growth, shared primitives, and a consistent experience that scales with new teams and use cases.
• Improve end-to-end platform experience for internal (and external-facing) users: APIs, guardrails, debugging workflows, and automation.
• Own production quality: incident response / on-call rotation, root cause analysis, and turning learnings into durable fixes.

Example projects

• Roll out sharded YTsaurus masters (incl. Kubernetes operator support) and build automatic balancing of metadata across master cells (consensus groups) to remove control-plane bottlenecks and unlock 10–100x cluster growth.
• Make CHYT interactive SQL faster and more predictable at high load via performance work like data-skipping / min-max-style indexes and improved execution introspection.
• Turn Orchestracto into a platform product by defining the building blocks, developer experience, and governance for how teams create and share workflows.
• Scale and harden Parquet-on-S3 for native YTsaurus workloads by tackling replication/movement, consistent lifecycle semantics, and master-server metadata optimizations for performance and reliability.
• Design and ship complete, trustworthy audit trails for data changes (who/what/when) across heterogeneous storage and compute paths.

Tech stack

• Core: modern C++ (C++20, async + multithreaded primitives)
• Services & tooling: Go and Python (microservices, utilities, integration tests)

What we expect

• 5+ years of software engineering experience.
• Strong C++ skills (you’ll write core code).
• Working knowledge of Python and/or Go (you don’t have to be expert, but should be comfortable navigating them).
• Experience developing and/or operating high-load, distributed services.
• Production mindset: ability to use SSH, read logs/metrics/traces, and debug distributed systems behavior.
• Solid CS fundamentals: algorithms, data structures, concurrency basics.

Nice to have

• Experience with Big Data systems (YTsaurus/Hadoop/Spark/ClickHouse/Kafka-like ecosystems).
• Experience with multi-tenant platforms, schedulers, resource isolation, quotas, and reliability engineering.
• Strong performance engineering skills (profiling, lock contention, latency/throughput tradeoffs).

We conduct coding interviews as part of the process.

The role

We’re looking for a Backend Engineer to contribute to the development of our hyperscaler platform.

Your responsibilities will include:

Develop fault-tolerant, reliable cloud services: cloud infrastructure, managed databases, managed Kubernetes, billing, monitoring systems, ML service and more.

We expect you to have: 

• 5+ years of professional software engineering experience;
• Knowledge of C++ programming language;
• Knowledge of Python, Java, and Go is a plus;
• Ability to write reliable code and dig into complex problems;
• Teamwork-oriented approach;
• Fluency in English.

Nice to have:

Experience designing high-load and scaling services.

We conduct coding interviews as part of the process.

Token Factory is a part of  Nebius Cloud, one of the world’s largest GPU clouds, running tens of thousands of GPUs. We are building an inference platform that makes every kind of foundation model — text, vision, audio, and emerging multimodal architectures — fast, reliable, and effortless to deploy at massive scale. To deliver on that promise, we need an engineer who can make the platform behave flawlessly under extreme load and recover gracefully when the unexpected happens.

In this role you will own the reliability, performance, and observability of the entire inference stack. Your day starts with designing and refining telemetry pipelines — metrics, logs, and traces that turn hundreds of terabytes of signal into clear, actionable insight. From there you might tune Kubernetes autoscalers to squeeze more efficiency out of GPUs, craft Terraform modules that bake resilience into every new cluster, or harden our request-routing and retry logic so even transient failures go unnoticed by users. When incidents do arise, you’ll rely on the automation and runbooks you helped create to detect, isolate, and remediate problems in minutes, then drive the post-mortem culture that prevents recurrence. All of this effort points toward a single goal: scaling the platform smoothly while hitting aggressive cost and reliability targets.

Success in the role calls for deep fluency with Kubernetes, Prometheus, Grafana, Terraform, and the craft of infrastructure-as-code. You script comfortably in Python or Bash, understand the nuances of alert design and SLOs for high-throughput APIs, and have spent enough time in production to know how distributed back-ends fail in the real world. Experience shepherding GPU-heavy workloads — whether with vLLM, Triton, Ray, or another accelerator stack — will serve you well, as will a background in MLOps or model-hosting platforms. Above all, you care about building self-healing systems, thrive on debugging performance from kernel to application layer, and enjoy collaborating with software engineers to turn reliability into a feature users never have to think about.

If the idea of safeguarding the infrastructure that powers tomorrow’s multimodal AI energizes you, we’d love to hear your story.

The Role

Your responsibilities will include:

• Ensure fault-tolerance, scale, and uninterrupted operations for the service.
• Use cutting-edge cloud technology to solve a variety of infrastructure problems.
• Implement and improve CI/CD processes.

We expect you to have:

• Solid experience with programming languages (like Go, Python, or C++);
• Solid understanding of classic algorithms and data structures;
• Commercial experience with and deep understanding of Unix systems and network technology;
• Experience with systems for containerization and configuration management (Ansible, Salt, Terraform, Docker, K8s, Helm).

It will be an added bonus if you have:

• Desire to be involved in backend development;
• Experience designing, developing, and running high-load distributed systems;
• Commercial experience with a variety of cloud platforms.

We conduct coding interviews as part of the process.

About the role:

8am is hiring a Software Development Engineer in Test to embed within our SaaS Platform team, the group that owns customer identity, authentication, provisioning, roles and permissions, risk profiling, and the APIs every other 8am product consumes. You will own the test automation strategy for that team and partner with engineers from requirements through release.

We do not embed SDETs everywhere. We place them where the rate of change and blast radius warrant it. SaaS Platform is one of those places. QE owns test strategy, risk assessment, and quality gates; SDETs own the automation that makes those gates enforceable. Your focus is end-to-end flow coverage of the critical user journeys that exercise the platform in production, plus contract coverage of the APIs downstream products depend on. We do not chase atomic line coverage at the E2E layer. Your work directly supports our Defect Leakage Rate target of under 15%.

This role is hired through an Employer of Record (EOR) partner in the Czech Republic.

About us:

8am builds software that helps professionals run stronger businesses. Our platform powers payments, client experience, and operational workflows for legal, accounting, and other service-based businesses. U.S. based professionals count on our purpose-built solutions to simplify operations, ensure compliance, and fuel profitable growth, so they can focus on their clients and do more of the work that matters.

More than 250,000 professionals across the U.S. rely on our products every day. As we continue to grow, we’re investing in the next generation of our platform and are looking for experienced engineers who want to help shape its future.

What you'll do:

• Own the E2E flow automation strategy for SaaS Platform, prioritizing critical customer journeys (auth, provisioning, identity, role and permission flows) over exhaustive atomic coverage. 
• Build and maintain automation in Python with Playwright for UI flows and PyTest for API and contract coverage, contributing back to our internal framework when you find gaps.
• Integrate tests into CircleCI and our tiered quality gates (PR smoke, nightly, pre-release regression) so gates are enforceable, fast, and trustworthy. Flaky tests are a defect; treat them like one.
• Validate authentication, provisioning, and role/permission flows, and the OpenAPI contracts that downstream products depend on across MyCase, DocketWise, CASEPeer, and LawPay.
• Partner with the Quality Engineers on your squad/across the organization: they surface the risk and coverage signals; you close them with automation.
• Use AI tooling where it accelerates real outcomes: test plan generation, code review, automation scaffolding, and coverage gap analysis through our Qase MCP integration. 

About you:

• 6+ years in software development or test automation, with demonstrated experience designing E2E automation around critical flows rather than chasing coverage targets. Familiarity with risk-based testing and the test pyramid as working concepts, not buzzwords.
• Advanced to expert in Python and PyTest, with deep experience across both front-end (Playwright) and API test automation.
• Hands-on experience testing authentication, provisioning, and role/permission systems, including OAuth, SAML, and SSO. Comfortable with API contract testing and OpenAPI specification development and validation.
• Advanced SQL for complex test data setup and validation. Strong Linux fundamentals and working knowledge of TCP/IP, HTTP/HTTPS, DNS, and TLS for debugging auth and API failures from packet captures or dev tools.
• Working proficiency with cloud infrastructure (AWS or GCP) and containerization (Docker, Kubernetes), and experience integrating tests into CI/CD pipelines (CircleCI preferred).
• Hands-on fluency with AI-assisted development and testing tools (Claude Code, Cursor, GitHub Copilot, or comparable), including prompt design that produces reliable output and the judgment to know when to throw AI output away.
• Past experience standing up a test automation framework from scratch, plus exposure to Quality KPIs, QaaS initiatives, and PCI compliance in payments or identity systems.
• Experience with test case management (Qase or TestRail), defect tracking in Jira, and mentoring SDETs to automation proficiency.
• Demonstrated experience leveraging AI tools and technologies to improve workflows, enhance decision-making, or drive innovation.
• This position is preferably based in Brno, Czech Republic

About the role:

We're hiring a Manager II of Quality Engineering to lead a team of QEs embedded across our Agile squads. You'll report to the Senior Director of Quality Engineering and partner with peers across QE management. You own the team's careers, practice, QE tooling, and the standards they bring into their squads. Their squad's Engineering Manager coordinates their day-to-day squad work as a cross-functional peer.

Your team is distributed across multiple geographies and employment models. You're accountable for quality outcomes against a concrete target: 15% aggregate Defect Leakage Rate (DLR) for severity 0–3, with severity 0–1 held below 1%.

Depending on which squads your QEs sit in, your scope may include our payments stack, which relies on event-driven architectures along with first- and third-party APIs. Our Tooling and Automation Manager owns the SDET function and automation strategy; you and your team provide the risk and coverage signal that shapes where automation and AI tooling investment goes.

About us:

At 8am, our vision is to power a world where professionals thrive. We start every day on a mission to empower professionals with the most trusted, innovative technology to deliver world-class outcomes for their clients and exceptional financial results for their business. They count on our purpose-built solutions to simplify operations, ensure compliance, and fuel profitable growth, so they can focus on their clients and do more of the work that matters.

Founded in 2005, 8am™ (formerly AffiniPay) is the professional business platform built to help legal, accounting, and other client-focused professionals run stronger, more profitable businesses. Today, more than 250,000 professionals across the U.S. trust 8am to help them work smarter, serve clients better, and unlock their full potential. We have been recognized as one of Inc 5000’s fastest growing companies in the U.S. for 13 years in a row, and as a result, our teams continue to grow as well!

What you'll do:

• Lead a team of QEs embedded in Agile squads: hiring, coaching, performance management, and growing your ICs along our QE career ladder.
• Manage QE resource allocation across squads: rebalancing coverage as priorities shift, covering for leave or open headcount, and surfacing tradeoffs to Engineering and Product when demand exceeds capacity.
• Own the QE practice across the squads your QEs work in, enforce release readiness standards through our quality gates, and keep Qase traceability coherent.
• Review test plans authored by your team and raise the bar on coverage, clarity, and maintainability.
• Partner with peer QE managers, the Tooling and Automation team, Data Engineering, and Product to identify critical automation paths and build them into the quality gates, balancing the flows customers actually use with the flows we want customers adopting.
• Pull in our nonfunctional QE specialists (Data, Security, Performance) where their expertise sharpens coverage for the squads your QEs are in.
• Partner with Customer Support and Customer Success to bring customer signal into QE, positioning your team as customer advocates who catch failure modes before they become widespread.
• Own post-release quality: driving QE response and root cause analysis when escapes happen, and feeding those learnings back into gates, test coverage, and process.
• Enforce existing QE processes and drive continuous improvement. Contribute to Themis, our Python/PyTest/Playwright-based automation framework that implements our quality gates.

About you:

• 3+ years managing a quality-focused engineering team, with a track record of driving defect leakage or equivalent quality metrics down and sustaining them as the codebase and team grow. You understand the QE mindset: defining what good looks like, owning quality outcomes at the squad level, and partnering with Tooling and Automation to keep automation reliable and well-maintained, with zero tolerance for flakey tests.
• Strong judgment under ambiguity and proactive communication in all directions. You surface risks and quality signals early, with context and a proposed path, to your team, to Engineering Managers, to Product, and to leadership. You can present quality metrics and trade-offs clearly to senior leadership and represent the Quality Engineering team's position in cross-functional debates.
• An active view of AI in QE. We're continuously evaluating and adopting AI to accelerate QE work. You bring rigor to how AI gets used, ensure your team reviews AI output before it ships, and help them get more value from the tools over time.
• Technical breadth and depth in both QE practice and the products you'll cover. Broad enough to engage credibly with engineering peers across multiple products and verticals on test strategy, critical automation paths, and tooling decisions, and deep enough to mentor your ICs on their actual work: test design, debugging a flaky suite, decomposing a complex feature for coverage, reviewing automation critically.
• Demonstrated experience leveraging AI tools and technologies to improve workflows, enhance decision-making, or drive innovation.

Why join our new 8am Brno hub?

• Founding Team Impact: Be a founding engineer of our new Brno R&D hub. After a brief 1-6 month integration with U.S. based teams, you will help form fully autonomous, locally-led squads with clear paths to Staff and leadership roles with the exciting opportunity to collaborate face-to-face with your team in our upcoming Brno office.

Our hiring teams at 8am are dedicated to recruiting top talent that share our passion for serving the professional services industry through innovative financial technology.  As such, our Talent Acquisition Team only follows legitimate hiring practices.  We will always communicate with our candidates using emails with the 8am domain and will never ask for sensitive/personal data during the application process.  All interviews take place over phone call, Zoom/Google Meet or in person.  All offers are communicated verbally by our Talent Acquisition Specialists with a written offer letter as a follow up. 

About the role:

At 8am, quality is not a phase—it’s a mindset woven into every conversation, decision, and line of code.  We are looking for a Performance Quality Engineer to own performance observability, define meaningful metrics, and drive data-informed decisions about system behavior under load. You will work directly with Platform Engineering, development teams, and product leadership to surface performance risks before they become customer-facing problems.

You will report to the Senior Director of Quality Engineering and maintain a dotted-line relationship with the Sr. Director of Platform Engineering.

This role is hired through an Employer of Record (EOR) partner in the Czech Republic.

About us:

At 8am, our vision is to power a world where professionals thrive. We start every day on a mission to empower professionals with the most trusted, innovative technology to deliver world-class outcomes for their clients and exceptional financial results for their business. They count on our purpose-built solutions to simplify operations, ensure compliance, and fuel profitable growth, so they can focus on their clients and do more of the work that matters.

Founded in 2005, 8am™ (formerly AffiniPay) is the professional business platform built to help legal, accounting, and other client-focused professionals run stronger, more profitable businesses. Today, more than 250,000 professionals across the U.S. trust 8am to help them work smarter, serve clients better, and unlock their full potential. We have been recognized as one of Inc 5000’s fastest growing companies in the U.S. for 13 years in a row, and as a result, our teams continue to grow as well!

What you'll do:

• Design and create performance test suites for multiple product teams against a microservices-based SaaS platform running on AWS.
• Operate and help maintain production-like environments for performance analysis, diagnosis, and regression testing.
• Analyze application and infrastructure logs to identify, isolate, and help root-cause performance degradations.
• Define, track, and report on performance KPIs (response times, throughput, error rates, resource utilization) and deliver trend analysis and projections to engineering leadership and product stakeholders.
• Use usage and trend data to identify capacity risks and provide recommendations before they impact customers.
• Collaborate with Platform Engineering, DevX, SDET, and Product teams to prioritize and validate performance improvements.
• Partner with Security QE on the overlap between performance and security risk. Load and stress tests reveal how systems degrade under pressure, which is exactly what attackers exploit via DoS and resource-exhaustion vectors. This role will collaborate with Security QE to integrate security-informed scenarios (authentication storms, TLS renegotiation abuse, API rate-limit validation) into performance test plans, and surface high-resource-cost endpoints to security for assessment.
• Identify and define nonfunctional performance tests for CI/CD pipeline gates (Integration, Regression, Post-Deployment). Work with DevX and Platform Engineering to establish pass/fail thresholds that catch regressions before production.
• Contribute to performance engineering standards, runbooks, and best practices within the QE organization.

About you:

• 3+ years of hands-on performance testing and analysis on microservices-based, cloud-hosted (AWS) SaaS platforms.
• Strong analytical skills with a demonstrated ability to move from symptoms to root cause.
• Background in statistical analysis: trend modeling, interpolation, extrapolation, and capacity forecasting.
• Working knowledge of AWS (EC2, RDS, S3, ECS/EKS), Docker, and Kubernetes.
• Experience with performance testing tools (k6, Gatling, Locust, JMeter, or equivalent).
• Experience with observability platforms (Prometheus, Grafana, Datadog) and log aggregation (ELK Stack, CloudWatch).
• Scripting proficiency in Python or comparable language for test scenarios, data analysis, and light tooling. Coding experience is a plus, but this role prioritizes performance engineering skill over software development depth.
• Comfortable working asynchronously across multiple time zones in a remote-first team.
• Fluent in English (written and spoken); Czech language skills are a plus but not required.

Nice to Have: 

• Experience integrating performance tests into CI/CD pipelines as automated quality gates.
• Familiarity with APM tools and distributed tracing (OpenTelemetry, Jaeger, X-Ray).
• Experience building performance dashboards and automated regression alerting.
• Exposure to security-adjacent performance concerns (DDoS resilience, rate-limit validation, resource-exhaustion analysis).
• Exposure to chaos engineering or resilience testing practices.
• Experience with Agile/Scrum or Kanban delivery frameworks.
