Join a Kiwi success story valuing curiosity and craft. Use your deep cloud expertise to shape global platforms in a supportive team environment
Why You’d Like It
You will be a key driver in an autonomous team responsible for maintaining and developing a global SaaS platform. This is a hands-on senior role where your efforts directly contribute to enabling the wider engineering effort to innovate faster and with safety. If you want to solve complex problems in a modern AWS/Linux ecosystem without getting bogged down in red tape, this is the spot for you.
The Story
The engineering team is scaling up and needs a seasoned set of hands to ensure their distributed systems are operating at peak efficiency. They are looking for someone who can step in to troubleshoot complex faults, manage technology refresh initiatives, and ensure performance metrics are met. It's about bringing deep experience to a team that values doing things the right way.
Company Profile
You will join a supportive team within a self-managed agile environment. They operate a multi-tier distributed system involving real-time event processing and bridge the gap between development, manufacturing, and operations. It’s a place where curiosity and resourcefulness are genuinely valued.
Your Role
You will take ownership of critical infrastructure and support internal engineering teams to upskill and enable flow.
You are a technically competent self-starter, driven to keep your skills sharp. You bring deep experience with public cloud (AWS) and Kubernetes (EKS). You are comfortable with Infrastructure as Code (Terraform) and practical scripting (Bash or Python). You enjoy the challenge of a complicated environment and have a mindset of curiosity and experimentation.
