Platform Engineering Manager (F/H)

Join our team as a Senior Platform Engineer, where you will design, build, and operate reliable, secure, and scalable infrastructure systems. You will focus on delivering automated infrastructure changes, enabling strong self-service capabilities for engineering teams, and supporting both cloud and on-premise environments. As a senior member of the team, you will also mentor and guide more junior engineers.

• Delivering infrastructure changes using automation while maintaining high availability and strong engineering experience.
• Enabling engineers to focus on product development by delivering strong self-servicing capabilities that abstract required infrastructure and security knowledge.
• Mentoring and supporting more junior engineers through code reviews, pairing, and knowledge sharing, contributing to raising the overall technical level of the team.

What we expect from the role

• Delivering infrastructure changes using automation while maintaining high availability and strong engineering experience
• Enabling engineers to focus on product development by delivering strong self-servicing capabilities that abstract required infrastructure and security knowledge
• Enabling on-premise customers to use Fabriq reliably
• Delivering platform structure to create autonomy, reduce friction and maintain high security, reliability and cost standards
• Adapting organizational capabilities to technological evolutions
• Mentoring and supporting more junior engineers through code reviews, pairing, and knowledge sharing, contributing to raising the overall technical level of the team

Required knowledge

• Very strong networking knowledge (all OSI layers, TLS, DNS, DHCP, routing)
• Strong Linux system knowledge, including containers and troubleshooting
• Strong programming and code architecture skills, with the maturity to set the bar for the team
• Test-Driven Development practices and a very good understanding of Domain Driven Design
• Strong communication skills for documentation writing, customer relationships and change management facilitation
• Baseline knowledge of security compliance frameworks (ISO 27001, SOC 2 Type 2, …)

Required experience

• Significant production experience on AWS using container technologies and infrastructure-as-code tooling (Terraform / Pulumi)
• Solid production experience with Kubernetes in on-premise / private cloud contexts (storage controller management, advanced networking and control plane management)
• Production experience in release management including CI systems (e.g. GitHub Actions, Jenkins, …) and CD systems (e.g. ArgoCD, Spinnaker, …)
• Production experience in monitoring, alerting and observability implementation, performance troubleshooting and reliability engineering
• Production experience in database management (handling migrations, introducing breaking changes in data schemas without downtime, handling backup and restoration, …)
• Working with AI agents
• A track record of supporting less experienced engineers, whether through mentoring, technical guidance, or being a go-to reference in your scope

Additional skills and experience we value

• Packaging code with Nix and configuring operating systems with NixOS / nix-darwin
• Working with airgapped environments (environments disconnected from the internet)
• Experience with zero-trust systems
• Knowledge of advanced security compliance frameworks (IGI 901, FedRAMP, …)
• Experience with AI agent factories
