IT Infrastructure Engineer

We are looking for an Infrastructure Engineer to help us build and run the platform that powers everything Platomics does. You'll own the lifecycle of our Kubernetes clusters (on-prem and in public cloud), drive our Infrastructure-as-Code practices forward with Ansible and Terraform, and keep our servers, storage, and network humming along reliably. This is a hands-on role: one day you might be writing Terraform modules to spin up new cloud resources, the next you'll be racking servers and tracing a network issue in the data centre.

You'll work closely with our Engineering team to deliver the infrastructure they need, and partner with other departments to make sure everything stays secure and compliant.

You'll need to be willing and able to work on-premise at least 60% of the time.

🔥 Our mission: Innovation to patient, faster.

As regulations of the medical sector become increasingly strict in the European Union, health institutions, such as hospitals and laboratories struggle to maintain compliance due to a lack of knowledge and resources. This bears the risk of pushing small laboratories out of business and reducing the overall offering in diagnostics, ultimately resulting in a reduced health care quality for patients.

At Platomics, we address this problem by creating products that tap into an existing ecosystem and make complying with a wide range of regulations fast and easy.

Candidates should be prepared to work in a high-cadence environment, collaborating with a highly qualified and international team. Your contributions will directly impact the lives of millions of individuals by ensuring that treatments and laboratory analyses especially for rare diseases can remain available.
