Site Reliability Engineer

About the Team

The Infrastructure team at Spendesk builds the tools, systems, and internal products that empower every engineering team to move faster and more safely. We are transforming traditional infrastructure into a developer-facing platform focused on enablement, automation, and scalability.

Our mission is to turn complexity into simplicity, manual toil into automation, and infrastructure into a platform that drives innovation. We own CI/CD platform (ArgoCD and Github Actions), secrets management, observability tooling, infrastructure provisioning, and developer workflows. Our work is foundational to the productivity and reliability of the entire product organization.

About the role

You'll join a dynamic and friendly team working on the next generation of internal tooling and infrastructure at Spendesk. You'll be hands-on with Kubernetes, Go, and AWS to create scalable, reliable, and developer-friendly systems that power our internal platform.

Hereʼs how youʼll make an impact:

Build and maintain core infrastructure services including provisioning workflows, service orchestration, and deployment automation using Kubernetes, Go, and cloud-native tools

Support and improve our CI/CD platform and Infrastructure Service Orchestrator, enabling product teams to spin up production-ready services in minutes with consistent tooling, observability, and security baked in

Partner closely with product engineers and EMs to identify recurring friction in development workflows and turn those into reusable, documented platform solutions across key domains (secrets management, IaC, monitoring, cost visibility)

Improve our observability and incident response workflows, building custom dashboards, refining alerting systems, and supporting internal adoption through clear documentation and onboarding guides

Support the migration of legacy infrastructure, bringing the You build it, you own it mindset to our product squads while maintaining a high level of security and permission controls

Participate in our regular on-call rotation (off-hours) & firefighting (during working hours), leveraging lessons learned to continuously reduce toil through automation, self-healing systems, and smarter alert routing

What we're looking for

A motivated individual contributor with a platform mindset—someone who enjoys solving developer pain with elegant, scalable systems and takes pride in enabling others to deliver faster.

You're a fit for this role if you have:

3-5 years of engineering experience in DevOps, Infrastructure, or Platform Engineering roles

Hands-on experience with Kubernetes in production, including debugging containerized services at scale

Proficiency in Bash, Python or Go for building reliable tooling and automation

Experience with AWS and Infrastructure-as-Code (Terraform or similar)

A bias for automation: you replace playbooks with code and eliminate toil wherever possible

Strong communication skills: clear documentation and async updates are second nature to you

Fluency in English (spoken and written)

Nice to have

Experience with CI/CD platforms (ArgoCD, GitHub Actions) or observability stacks (Grafana, Prometheus, Datadog)

Familiarity with SLOs, incident management, and on-call practices

Background in regulated environments (fintech, GDPR)

Contributions to open-source tooling

As we are an international team, please submit your application and CV in English.
