Job description

Inscribirse en esta oferta About the Team The Infrastructure team at Spendesk builds the tools, systems, and internal products that empower every engineering team to move faster and more safely. We are transforming traditional infrastructure into a developer-facing platform focused on enablement, automation, and scalability. We own CI/CD platform (ArgoCD and Github Actions), secrets management, observability tooling, infrastructure provisioning, and developer workflows. Our work is foundational to the productivity and reliability of the entire product organization. About The Role

  • As a Senior Platform Engineer, you’ll help define and deliver the next generation of internal tooling and infrastructure at Spendesk. You’ll be hands-on in designing scalable systems, collaborating with engineering peers, and productizing shared services used by dozens of engineers across the company. What You’ll Do

  • As a Senior Platform Engineer at Spendesk, you’ll help shape the foundation that every engineering team builds on. You’ll work hands-on with Kubernetes, Go, and AWS to create scalable, reliable, and developer-friendly systems that power our internal platform.
  • Here’s how you’ll make an impact:
  • Design, build, and maintain core infrastructure services including provisioning workflows, service orchestration, and deployment automation using Kubernetes, Go, and cloud-native tools
  • Own and evolve our CI/CD platform, improving performance, reliability, and usability, with a focus on fast feedback, secure secrets handling, and smooth rollback support
  • Develop service scaffolding and templates that allow product teams to spin up production-ready services in minutes with consistent tooling, observability, and security baked in
  • Lead the technical rollout of our Service Orchestrator, a new internal product aimed at simplifying infrastructure provisioning across squads
  • Improve our observability tooling and incident response workflows, building custom dashboards and refining alerting systems to reduce noise and improve reliability
  • Partner closely with product engineers and EMs to identify recurring friction in development workflows and turn those into reusable, documented platform solutions
  • Take technical ownership of key platform domains, such as secrets management, infrastructure as code, monitoring pipelines, or cost visibility tooling
  • Champion internal adoption of platform capabilities by writing excellent documentation, creating onboarding guides, and supporting team usage through async support and office hours
  • Participate in our on-call rotation, using that insight to continuously reduce toil through automation, self-healing systems, and smarter alert routing Who you are

  • A strong individual contributor with a platform mindset-someone who enjoys solving developer pain with elegant, scalable systems and takes pride in enabling others to move faster.
  • You’re a fit for this role if you have, + Languages: Go (primary), Python (scripts/tools), Bash
  • Cloud: AWS (EKS, EC2, S3, RDS, IAM, etc.)
  • Infrastructure: Kubernetes (production), Terraform (IaC), Helm, GitHub Actions
  • CI/CD: GitHub Actions, ArgoCD
  • Observability: Datadog
  • Secrets & Config: Vault
  • Monitoring & Alerting: PagerDuty, custom alert routing, dashboards
  • Internal Dev Platform: Service Orchestrator, service scaffolding templates
  • Docs & Collaboration: Notion, Slack, Jira Inscribirse en esta oferta Recibir ofertas similares por correo electrónico Al crear una alerta, aceptas nuestros Términos y condiciones y Política de privacidad, y el uso de cookies.

Requirements

  • Hands-on experience with Kubernetes in production environments, including designing and debugging containerized services at scale
  • Fluency in Go (Golang) OR Typescript, you’ve built tooling, services, or operators that run reliably in production
  • Proficiency with AWS and a solid understanding of Infrastructure-as-Code using Terraform or a similar tool
  • Experience building internal tooling or platforms used across multiple teams -bonus if you’ve owned adoption, documentation, or support

  • Hands-on work with monitoring and observability stacks (e.g., Grafana, Prometheus, Datadog)
  • Knowledge of SLOs, alerting strategy, and incident tooling (e.g., PagerDuty, alert routing)
  • Exposure to cost visibility and optimization tooling within AWS or other cloud platforms
  • Comfort operating in regulated or compliance-sensitive environments (e.g., fintech, GDPR
  • Contributions to open-source DevOps or platform toolingFamiliarity with platform metrics frameworks like DORA, internal NPS, or
