About the role
- Architect and manage our cloud infrastructure on AWS and Kubernetes.
- Build and improve CI/CD pipelines, developer tooling, and internal platforms.
- Evaluate, integrate, and roll out new tools and services across the company.
- Partner with product and business teams to remove bottlenecks and ship faster.
- Own production systems end-to-end — from design decisions to incident response.
- Raise the bar on security, observability, and engineering standards.
Requirements
- You're a pragmatist. You find the simplest solution that actually works, not the most impressive one.
- You're comfortable with infrastructure. You have hands-on experience with containers, orchestration, and cloud platforms (Docker, Kubernetes, Terraform, AWS, or similar).
- You write clean, maintainable code. We mostly work in Kotlin and TypeScript, but we won't filter you out over a language.
- You communicate well. You can explain technical decisions to non-technical people and collaborate across teams without friction.
- You want to grow. You're not looking for a role where you do the same thing every day. You want to stretch.
Benefits
- We see ourselves as “distributed first” but also have a beautiful office in Berlin where you can work.
- We are flexible and cover whatever you need to be as productive as possible (e.g., MacOS, IntelliJ IDEA, Claude Code).
- Home office stipend.
- 30 days’ of time off.
- Meaningful equity.
- Open-minded and transparent culture that includes regular get-together meetings (e.g., All Hands, Brown Bag Lunch, Offsites).
