Our approach to platform engineering aims to build SoftwareOne’s online marketplace, client interfaces, internal integrations and external vendor relations to a world class standard. Our philosophies include establishing a blame-free environment focused on continuous improvement.

The role

Role is 100% REMOTE from the following countries: UK, Ireland, Spain, Italy, Belgium, Bulgaria, Romania 

What you will be doing:

You will be called on to represent the team’s interests within the greater engineering organisation.

• IaC, specifically Terraform or a wrapper
• Kubernetes, or a Cloud-managed container orchestrator, e.g. AKS, EKS
• Experience operating an observability stack preferred
• Bonus points for being security-minded

About You:

• You have experience operating a mature, high volume stack in the cloud
• You have opinions on what a fully-realised platform should look like, and you have defined and implemented large portions of that
• You are a proponent of adhering to best practices, but are pragmatic enough to know when flexibility is called for
• You are a skilled communicator, able to interface with and tailor your message to counterparts in engineering, as well as colleagues in other functions, of all technical levels
