Job description

About Bitdeer:

Bitdeer is a world-leading technology company for Bitcoin mining and AI cloud.
Bitdeer is committed to providing comprehensive Bitcoin mining solutions for its customers. Apart from designing industry-leading ASIC chips and manufacturing mining rigs, the Group handles complex processes involved in computing across the value chain. This includes equipment procurement, transport logistics, datacenter design and construction, equipment management, and network and facility operations. Bitdeer also offers advanced cloud capabilities to customers with a high demand for artificial intelligence.
Headquartered in Singapore, Bitdeer operates globally with a diversified 3 GW energy portfolio, and deploys Bitcoin mining and HPC datacenters in the United States, Bhutan, Norway, Canada, Malaysia, and Ethiopia.

What you will be responsible for:

• Network Planning & Architecture: Engage deeply with NVIDIA, leading network equipment vendors, ISPs, and colocation partners; translate business requirements and cloud platform development architecture into top-level designs spanning AIDC internal networks, DCI, and the global backbone. Own the planning and implementation of foundational resources including IP addressing, VLAN/VXLAN, and bandwidth, while charting a forward-looking network evolution roadmap.
• Lead end-to-end AIDC internal network architecture, covering GPU cluster interconnects (InfiniBand / RoCE), Spine-Leaf / Clos topologies, front-end business networks, and out-of-band management networks.
• Collaborate with the cloud platform engineering team on Underlay network architecture design and Overlay network integration (SDN controllers / VxLAN / EVPN, etc.).
• Own congestion control tuning and standard-setting for hyperscale cluster networks, including PFC, ECN, and In-band Network Telemetry (INT).
• Produce architecture documentation (HLD / LLD), network topology diagrams, configuration standards, and SOPs.
• Identify risks in existing network architectures, develop improvement roadmaps, and drive execution to completion.

How you will stand out:

• Bachelor's degree or above in Computer Science, Telecommunications, Electronics, or a related field; 8+ years of network architecture design and planning experience at a hyperscale internet company, top-tier cloud provider, or multinational backbone operator.
• Deep understanding of network requirements for AI compute clusters; expert-level proficiency in InfiniBand (IB) and RoCEv2 architecture design.
• Familiarity with high-performance network topologies such as Rail-Optimized architectures; hands‑on experience planning and deploying 10,000- to 100,000-GPU‑scale cluster networks is a strong plus.
• Solid command of data center routing and overlay technologies including BGP, OSPF, ECMP, VxLAN, and EVPN; in-depth knowledge and practical experience with Segment Routing (SR-MPLS / SRv6).
• Familiarity with optical transport networks, DWDM technology, and global backbone peering/transit strategies.
• Exceptional cross‑functional and cross-cultural communication skills with the ability to align diverse stakeholders on large‑scale, complex projects; strong resilience under pressure and a technology‑forward mindset.

What you will experience working with us:

• A culture that values authenticity and diversity of thoughts and backgrounds;
• An inclusive and respectable environment with open workspaces and exciting start‑up spirit;
• Fast‑growing company with the chance to network with industrial pioneers and enthusiasts;
• Ability to contribute directly and make an impact on the future of the digital asset industry;
• Involvement in new projects, developing processes/systems;
• Personal accountability, autonomy, fast growth, and learning opportunities;
• Attractive welfare benefits and developmental opportunities such as training and mentoring.
