Job Technologies
Your role in the team
- NEURA's Computing Services team owns the full server, storage, and private cloud stack. As our Senior Private Cloud Engineer, you'll take full ownership of our private cloud environments - designing, operating, and evolving them as a platform that engineering and research teams can depend on. This is a role with real scope: end-to-end responsibility, full admin access across the stack, and a direct hand in shaping the private cloud environment at NEURA Robotics.
- Own and operate NEURA's private cloud infrastructure end-to-end - from cluster architecture through day-to-day platform management.
- Design and evolve the private cloud as an internal platform - standardized, self-service-capable compute for development, production, and research workloads across the company.
- Übernehmen Sie die Verantwortung für alle Schichten, von denen die Plattform abhängt, einschließlich Virtualisierung, Netzwerk (VLANs, Routing, SDN), Speicher und Identitätsintegration.
- Build and mature monitoring and observability across the platform, ensuring capacity transparency, alerting, and reliable incident detection.
- Drive infrastructure automation using tools such as Ansible and Terraform; reduce manual toil through repeatable, auditable processes.
- Own hardware lifecycle management, capacity planning, and high availability design for on-premises compute.
- Work closely with Linux admins, Windows admins, and the storage engineer to define clean service boundaries within Computing Services.
- Help shape the Computing Services function - your technical decisions and working practices will set the standard.

Our expectations of you
Education
- Degree in Computer Science, Information Technology, or a related field - or equivalent professional experience.
Qualifications
- Strong Linux fundamentals at OS level - comfortable well below the hypervisor console.
- Networking depth: VLANs, routing, SDN concepts, and firewall policy, sufficient to own the network configuration your platform requires without external hand-holding.
- English proficiency at B2 level or above - working language across a multicultural team.
- Relevant certifications (e.g., Nutanix NCP) are a plus.
Experience
- Several years of hands-on experience owning and operating private cloud or hypervisor platforms at a senior level - including clustering, high availability, and storage configuration; you have owned the platform, not just operated it.
- Experience delivering infrastructure as a self-service platform, or working in an IaaS/PaaS model for internal consumers.
- Automation mindset with practical experience in Ansible, Terraform, or comparable IaC tooling.
- Monitoring and observability experience relevant to compute infrastructure.
