Chaos Industries Backend Software Engineer building secure cloud platform and backend services for advanced radar systems. Design, operate, and improve scalable, reliable, and secure backend infrastructure and services.
Responsibilities
You’ll join a small, highly collaborative team building the secure cloud platform behind some of the world’s most advanced radar systems. Working alongside software, hardware, and systems engineers, you’ll design and operate the backend services and cloud infrastructure that ingest, process, and deliver mission-critical sensor data at scale. The systems you build must be reliable, resilient, secure, and performant—enabling operators to depend on them in the environments where they matter most.
This is a high-ownership role where you’ll influence architecture, build production systems, and help define the engineering foundations of a rapidly evolving platform. We’re looking for engineers who enjoy solving hard infrastructure problems, scaling distributed systems, and building software that performs under demanding real-world conditions.
What You’ll Build
Cloud Platform – Design, build, and operate secure, scalable Azure infrastructure that powers distributed radar systems and backend services.
Backend Services – Develop high-performance services that ingest, process, and distribute real-time sensor data with low latency, high reliability, and security at scale.
Infrastructure & Automation – Define infrastructure as code, automate deployments, and continuously improve the platform through modern DevOps practices.
Reliability & Operations – Own observability, monitoring, resiliency, and operational readiness, ensuring production systems remain secure, scalable, and dependable in demanding environments.
Platform Architecture – Help shape the technical direction of the platform, making architectural decisions that support new capabilities, increasing scale, and long-term maintainability.
Cross-Functional Integration – Partner closely with software, hardware, and systems engineers to deliver secure, reliable end-to-end capabilities from sensor to cloud.
