About the role
Moonware is seeking a hands-on Senior Software Engineer to lead and own the infrastructure that powers HALO, our Ground Traffic Control platform. In this role, you'll architect, build, and operate the core systems that keep our real-time airfield operations running reliably, securely, and at scale. This is not a narrow SRE or backend-only role; it's a deeply cross-functional engineering position. You'll design cloud architecture, create resilient distributed systems, deploy high-availability services, and ensure the platform remains fast, observable, and fault-tolerant as we scale globally.
Responsibilities
- Own the core infrastructure supporting HALO's real-time systems: cloud environments, compute orchestration, networking, storage, and platform services
- Design and build resilient, scalable distributed systems that handle high-throughput, mission-critical workloads
- Implement and maintain Infrastructure-as-Code, automated provisioning, and repeatable deployments across environments
- Drive observability across the stack, including logging, metrics, tracing, dashboards, and alerting
- Define and enforce reliability, performance, and availability standards for all production systems
- Partner with backend, data, and field engineering teams to understand operational constraints and incorporate learnings into architectural decisions
- Implement robust CI/CD pipelines that support rapid iteration with confidence and safety
- Improve platform security, including identity, access control, service hardening, and incident response readiness
- Make foundational decisions around infrastructure strategy as we expand into autonomy, mobility, and global-scale operations
This role might be for you if
- You love building the invisible foundation that keeps complex systems running
