Descrição da vaga
Role Overview
This is a permanent, full-time Staff Software Engineer opportunity in Abu Dhabi, UAE. The role sits within a new multi-sector AI programme and focuses on the backend platform foundation that will support the wider AI engineering teams. It is not an AI-specialist role; instead, it is centered on building and guiding the infrastructure layer that enables AI products and services to run.
As a staff-level individual contributor, you will take ownership of core platform areas such as event-driven architecture, distributed systems, APIs, deployment platforms, and cloud operations tooling. The position is designed for someone who can shape technical direction at scale and lead architectural decisions for a large platform environment.
Key Responsibilities
- Own and evolve the backend platform infrastructure that underpins the AI factory.
- Drive the design and implementation of event-driven systems and distributed backend services.
- Build and improve APIs, deployment tooling, and cloud operational capabilities.
- Provide architectural leadership for large-scale platform and data infrastructure decisions.
- Support engineering teams by creating a reliable, scalable foundation for development and delivery.
Required Experience and Skills
- At least 10 years of experience in backend or platform engineering.
- Strong hands-on proficiency in Python or Java.
- Proven experience with event-driven architectures such as Kafka, Azure Service Bus, or Azure Event Hubs.
- Deep background in data infrastructure and platform engineering.
- Experience making technical and architectural decisions in large-scale environments.
- Comfort working at staff or principal level as an individual contributor.
Compensation and Benefits
The package includes an extremely competitive tax-free salary, performance bonus, and UAE benefits. Candidates relocating to the UAE will receive a comprehensive relocation package for themselves and their family.
Location and Eligibility
This role is based in Abu Dhabi, UAE and requires onsite presence. Applications are open to candidates already based in the UAE as well as those willing to relocate.
