Senior Backend Engineer – Control Plane & Orchestration

About the role

SimSpace is looking for a Senior Backend Engineer to own and evolve the control‑plane and orchestration engine that powers its AI‑driven cyber‑simulation platform. You will design, build, and operate the core services that coordinate every action across the platform, from provisioning simulated services to updating topologies.

Key responsibilities

• Design and implement the API surface that external systems use to interact with the simulation platform.
• Develop an event‑driven backbone that reliably coordinates actions across multiple subsystems.
• Define and maintain the deployment and operational model for a multi‑tenant, high‑concurrency environment.
• Ensure system correctness, scalability, and operational rigor for complex range deployments.
• Collaborate with other engineering teams to integrate simulation layers with the control plane.

Required profile

• Senior‑level software engineer with a strong focus on distributed systems.
• Proven ability to build infrastructure that other engineers depend on.
• Passion for operational excellence and reliability in production environments.

Required skills

What we offer

• Culture centered on continuous learning, curiosity, and professional growth.
• Access to in‑house training, industry conferences, and dedicated skill‑development time.
• Opportunities for internal mobility, promotions, and competitive total rewards.
