  • Build and maintain developer platforms and self-service tooling that empower software engineers to deploy, test, and manage services independently and efficiently
  • Champion operational excellence and automation within the team, providing guidance and mentorship to engineers across the wider organisation

  • Hands-on experience with modern observability tooling such as Prometheus, Grafana, ELK or OpenSearch
  • Strong scripting proficiency in languages such as Python, Bash, or Go
  • Solid understanding of cloud security fundamentals, network architecture (VPCs, firewalls, load balancers), permissions segregation, and secrets management
  • Openness to participate in out-of-hours on-call rotation

Nice to have

  • Experience operating infrastructure in regulated environments, payments, FinTech, or crypto/blockchain platforms
  • Exposure to AI-assisted developer workflows or automation tooling

What we offer

  • Competitive salary: €70,000-€90,000 EUR (Bulgaria), €80,000-€100,000 EUR (Spain), or 350,000-420,000 PLN (Poland), based on experience and relevant certifications
