Senior Platform Software Engineer

About the Role

Join a small engineering team building a B2B SaaS platform for user-led growth. You will own the production infrastructure and reliability foundations that help the team deliver confidently as the product scales.

What You'll Do

Architect, deploy, and operate AWS infrastructure across compute, messaging, storage, networking, and observability.

Build and maintain CI/CD pipelines that support automated deployments from commit to production.

Operate PostgreSQL in production, including configuration, performance tuning, migrations, and backup and restore strategies.

Make pragmatic tradeoffs between delivery speed and foundational system quality.

Work with product teams and stakeholders to shape architecture and technical direction.

Apply AI-assisted development tools where useful in development and delivery workflows.

Investigate complex distributed-systems issues and deliver reliable solutions at scale.

What We're Looking For

At least 5 years of professional software engineering experience, including ownership in platform engineering, infrastructure, DevOps, or founding engineering.

Deep, hands-on AWS and Terraform experience operating production infrastructure, with a preference for infrastructure managed as code.

Production PostgreSQL experience, including connection pooling, migrations, optimization, and backup and restore.

Experience operating high-traffic or highly available production systems.

Working familiarity with TypeScript and Node.js application code, including NestJS.

Experience building production CI/CD pipelines and handling distributed-systems concerns such as ordering, idempotency, retries, at-least-once delivery, and partial failures.

Familiarity with agentic coding tools, alongside the technical judgment to debug and make architecture decisions independently.

Strong problem-solving, communication, and ownership skills.

Compensation & Benefits

Competitive salary and employee stock options. Visa sponsorship is not available.

Location

Fully remote within Europe, with residence within three hours of Central European Time.
