Resumo da oferta

Nebius is seeking a Staff Software Engineer to drive the indexing and data processing layer of a novel search engine designed for agentic AI consumption. You’ll build systems that ingest, process, and organize massive data into efficient queryable structures, with a focus on offline and nearline pipelines.

You will work on high-throughput, scalable pipelines, ensure data freshness and accessibility, and collaborate with runtime and ML teams to meet retrieval and ranking requirements.

Qualificações

• 8+ years of experience building production backend or data infrastructure systems.
• Strong Go experience (C++/Rust is a plus).
• Experience with large-scale data processing systems (10+ GiB/sec throughput, petabyte-scale datasets).

Responsabilidades

• Design, implement, and operate large-scale indexing systems and data pipelines that sit at the core of our search infrastructure
• Develop and optimise indexing strategies balancing performance, freshness, and resource efficiency
• Work on storage formats, compaction strategies, and update mechanisms to keep data accessible and current
• Ensure reliability and predictability of pipelines under high-throughput conditions
• Build well-tested components with clear responsibilities and interaction contracts, while remaining flexible as the system evolves
• Define and implement observability primitives, including structured logs, metrics, and data quality signals across offline and nearline pipelines
• Monitor throughput, resource usage, and cost, and drive optimisations when business needs require it
• Collaborate with runtime and ML teams to ensure indexing outputs meet retrieval and ranking requirements
• Enable safe experimentation on indexing strategies and data processing logic through controlled rollouts and clearly defined quality signals
