The Basics

We are looking for a Platform Engineer (m/f/d). You will be a key member of a tight-knit group of talented engineers who are responsible for building the Giant Swarm Developer Platform. The specific team is using cutting-edge technologies including Kubernetes, Cluster API, and Tekton, to test and integrate our platform's cluster management capabilities on AWS, Azure, and VMware.

Giant Swarm is a fast-growing open-source infrastructure management platform used by modern enterprises. Our vision is to empower developers around the world to ship great products.

Your Job

The team is responsible for shared Kubernetes services, such as the pipeline for Kubernetes releases, testing the Kubernetes platform overall, and building automation for bootstrapping new providers. We develop and maintain these services using open source technologies.
You help build and manage the pipeline for Kubernetes releases, including the testing platform for the Kubernetes offering. Other teams use this solution to integrate and release their software.
You take part in our on-call rotation for alerts and customer incidents. We keep our shifts quiet by fixing repeating problems long-term or communicating with customers to address specific issues such as misconfigurations.
You work independently on assigned tasks, asking questions and communicating actively with team members and other teams in case of questions and decision points.

Requirements

You have experience with at least one major CI/CD system, such as Tekton, Jenkins, or Concourse. You also have experience with GitOps and GitOps tooling, such as Flux or Argo.
You have worked extensively and gained operational experience with Kubernetes and at least one of the major cloud platforms, such as AWS or Azure.
You have experience with Go and Bash, and a strong software engineering background.
You are an experienced Linux user.
You are comfortable using AI tooling as part of the development process.
You are comfortable working with developers across other teams to solve problems.
You are used to deploying to production multiple times a day, and love to automate all the things.
We – and our customers – are currently distributed (mostly) around Europe. Your main timezone should be UTC +/- 2.
We are very active in the Cloud Native / Kubernetes space. If you are as well, that would be a perfect addition.

About us

Every new team member changes the team. We love to learn from each other and we are looking for people who know things we don't.

Becoming part of Giant Swarm means that, by extension, you also become part of the Cloud Native community. We actively contribute to upstream projects and our quarterly hackathons will give you space to work on out-of-the-box projects. Occasionally, when we, as a team, want to fully focus on one project, we scratch all meetings and routines for a certain time to better focus during our hive-sprints.
Continuous learning is important to us - we foster this through bi-yearly personal development talks, a budget for training/certifications/coaching as well as regular feedback talks and workshops. Our teams are cross- functional and collaboration is key.
Nothing crazy, but useful Basics: We currently operate on a 32 hour workweek (or 4 day workweek, you decide!). We don’t count holidays but set a minimum number; You choose your own hard- and software; As a company that has almost, if not more, kids than employees, family-friendliness is crucial to us and paid parental leave is a no-brainer; We pay monthly perks that cover your costs for working remotely; We meet twice a year as an entire company and (if possible) see conferences as an important place to catch up with team members; We aim to be fully transparent (finance, salaries) unless it hurts people and trust you, based on this to make the best d
