Member of Technical Staff
We're looking for a Member of Technical Staff to design and build the systems that power Bifrost's simulation and synthetic data platform. You'll own significant parts of the stack, from infrastructure and backend services to frontend and developer-facing tooling.
This isn't a role where you'll be handed a spec. You'll be expected to identify what needs building, make architectural decisions, and ship production systems that serve some of the most demanding technical teams in the world.
Your Main Quest
Build technology that gives AI the fastest path to understanding the physical world. Our customers use Bifrost to land spacecraft, detect threats across oceans, and train autonomous systems in minutes instead of months. You'll be the kind of engineer who makes that possible.
Own and ship entire systems end-to-end, from problem definition to production
Make architecture and design decisions that shape the platform's direction
Move comfortably between infrastructure, backend, and frontend work depending on what's needed
Work directly with internal stakeholders to understand requirements and translate them into technical solutions
Raise the engineering bar through code quality, tooling improvements, and mentorship
Core Responsibilities
Design and build production systems across the full stack: infrastructure, backend services, APIs, and user-facing applications
Architect and maintain cloud infrastructure on AWS (Kubernetes, containerized workloads, GPU compute, auto-scaling)
Build and improve CI/CD pipelines, deployment workflows, and developer tooling
Develop backend services and data pipelines (Python, TypeScript/Node.js, Go)
Design and maintain relational database schemas
Build responsive frontends and developer-facing interfaces when the work calls for it
Debug and resolve production issues across distributed systems
Implement observability, monitoring, and reliability practices
Use modern AI coding tools effectively to ship faster without sacrificing quality
Location: Singapore
What We're Looking For
5+ years of professional software engineering experience
Strong generalist mindset - you've worked across infrastructure, backend, and frontend, and you're comfortable picking up whatever's needed
Deep experience with at least two of: Python, TypeScript/JavaScript, Go, C++
Solid understanding of cloud infrastructure (AWS preferred), containerization (Docker, Kubernetes), and deployment at scale
Strong fundamentals in system design, data modeling, and API architecture
Experience with relational databases such as PostgreSQL or MySQL
Evidence of high ownership - you've shipped and maintained systems, not just contributed features
Clear, direct communication - you write well and explain technical decisions simply
You'll Stand Out If You Have
Experience in autonomous systems, robotics, simulation, or physical AI
Background at a company building self-driving vehicles, drones, defense systems, or robotics platforms
Experience with game engines (Unreal Engine, Unity), rendering pipelines, or 3D tooling
Exposure to computer vision, synthetic data pipelines, or ML/AI training workflows
Experience with GPU compute workloads and real-time rendering infrastructure
Background at a high-caliber engineering organization (top tech companies, well-regarded startups, or research labs)
Why Bifrost?
Work at the frontier of AI and robotics with the most technical teams in the world
Small team, no red tape. Your work ships to production and directly impacts customers like NASA, Anduril, Honda, and ST Engineering
Real ownership - take charge and see the direct impact of your work
Inclusive, judgement-free and safe space to be yourself
What It's Like Working With Us
Enjoy a focused, dedicated working environment where we never forget how to have a bit of fun! Take the opportunity to do projects outside of your comfort zone - that's where the greatest learning happens. We love out-of-the-box thinkers and problem-solvers who relish sharing, collaboration and growth.
