Are you a DevOps pro, looking to join a growing platform team where you can make a real difference?
As a Platform Engineer at Cambridge Intelligence, you’ll design and maintain reliable infrastructure and delivery pipelines for our acclaimed graph data visualization toolkits, sites and systems.
What’s involved?
This is a varied technical role requiring extensive experience in both Platform and Software engineering with a particular focus on the building, delivering and monitoring of TypeScript/Node.js applications running on Kubernetes and AWS Cloud. Day to day, you could be applying yourself to anything from Platform architectural design or AWS Cloud management using Pulumi, to debugging CICD performance of Docker wrapped Node.js apps or integrating a JavaScript authentication library into our product sites.
You should be comfortable leading on projects, debugging complicated systems and have an appreciation for the need to occasionally set project work to one side to debug and fix high priority issues in real time.
You’ll need a passion for your work, along with a desire to help others progress their technical skills through close collaboration, coaching and mentoring.
Who’s the ideal candidate?
Our products are market leaders thanks to the innovation of our developers. To excel in this role, you should enjoy leading and collaborating on the design, implementation and maintenance of stable and reliable infrastructure for our products, sites and systems. You’ll enjoy working closely with the development teams to make the development process as frictionless as possible.
As a Platform Engineer, you’ll get involved in various projects and processes including helping to mentor more junior members of the team. Our main programming language is TypeScript, so experience in that or JavaScript is essential.
