We are looking for a DevOps Engineer (Platform Engineer) with strong infrastructure expertise and hands-on Go development experience to help evolve our internal developer platform and CI/CD ecosystem.

• Supporting and improving infrastructure across multiple products: on-premise, cloud (AWS, Azure, GCP) and hybrid

• Developing and refactoring internal platform tools and services in Go, including a next-generation replacement for our current deployment system

• Investigating existing infrastructure on your own, finding weak spots and proposing and driving improvements

• Making stage and ephemeral environments faster, more reliable and cheaper to run

• Managing infrastructure as code with Terraform and Ansible

• Improving observability with Grafana, OpenSearch, metrics and alerting

• Handling operational and support tasks, which are shared across the whole team, seniors included

• Working closely with R&D, QA, SRE and infrastructure teams to improve developer experience and delivery speed

We expect from you:

• 3–5+ years of experience in DevOps or Platform Engineering at a senior level

• Real hands-on experience deploying and supporting on-premise infrastructure, including troubleshooting at the hardware and infrastructure level

• Practical experience with at least one cloud provider (AWS, Azure or GCP)
