Remote (Europe) | AI-First Platform | GCP / Kubernetes

A product-led tech company is hiring a Senior Cloud / DevOps Architect to build and scale the core cloud infrastructure powering its next-generation platform.

This is a foundational, high-urgency hire without this role, nothing else ships. Youll architect a production-grade, auto-scaling microservices platform designed to handle high-volume, real-world workloads.

• Design for auto-scaling, resilience, and failure testing (chaos engineering)
• Manage container orchestration (Kubernetes / GKE / EKS)
• Implement observability, monitoring, and performance tuning

Requirements

• Strong experience with AWS or GCP at production scale (multi-AZ, auto-scaling systems)
• Deep expertise in Terraform (or similar IaC tools)
• Hands-on with Kubernetes / containerised microservices
• Experience building CI/CD pipelines and observability stacks (e.g. Datadog, Grafana)

Nice to have: N8N or workflow tooling, zero-trust security, regulated environments (FinTech / PropTech)

Details

• Remote: Europe time zones preferred
• Type: Full-time (contract-to-hire considered)
• Start: Urgent / immediate priority
