  • You will be responsible for architecting and building distributed systems, as part of our managed Kubernetes offering.
  • You will use a wide variety of open source technologies and tools from across the open-source community, including Kubernetes, Prometheus, and Flatcar Linux.
  • You take part in on call, as part of our ‘you build it, you run it’ philosophy. This includes improving operations, such as by adding metrics, or building dashboards. 

  •  You have experience with Go and at least one other programming language, and a strong architectural background.
  • You have worked extensively with Kubernetes.
  • You are an experienced Linux user.
  • You are used to deploying to production multiple times a day, and love to automate all the things.
  • You are comfortable building and working with distributed systems - you prefer to build your applications as multiple services instead of a single monolith.
  • We - and our customers - are currently distributed (mostly) around Europe. Your main timezone should be UTC +/- 2.
  • We are very active in the Cloud Native / Kubernetes space. If you are as well - or just love giving talks - that will be a perfect addition.
