Job description

Online interview
We are looking for someone with a good understanding of the cloud native technology landscape. Someone with strong leadership skills, who is accountable, steer ways of working and technology strategy within an organization.

This role focuses on both engineering and people management.

You will be part of the cloud engineering space at VirtusLab, involved in day to day project work as well as more broad strategic initiatives within the company. You will ensure that the development processes, architecture, and standards are followed.

Azure Kubernetes Platform 
Project scope
We are part of the Azure enablement programme. We help application teams (Software Engineers) minimize the distance between onboarding and fully operational infrastructure. As part of our day to day work, we build reusable infrastructure components in Terraform which are open for contribution. Also, we’re building an internal platform for developers to centralize the technology and lower entry barriers to the cloud.
You can think about us as Enabling Team overcoming obstacles and helping organizations with cloud native technologies and modern ways of working.
Tech stack
Azure, Kubernetes, Terraform, Go, GitHub Actions, Azure DevOps, GitOps
Challenges
When building a centralized internal platform for developers the problem space is massive. In order to build truly scalable solutions we need to put a lot of effort into solid design and a good level of automation. This creates a room for really interesting problems to solve ranging from developing Kubernetes operators, operating complex distributed systems in production and building developer’s community around that. 
Team
We are a team of self-organizing and multidisciplinary engineers who are passionate about the cloud native technology landscape. We are distributed among different localisations, so we follow remote ways of working.  We value autonomy and high-level of automation. 

What we expect in general

  • Understanding the current trends in technology, especially cloud-native landscape.
  • Ability to design complex architecture in public cloud space (Azure, AWS, GCP). Experience with private cloud is a plus.
  • Managing and setting up expectations for the team and stakeholders.
  • Public speaking, good presentation skills.
  • Understanding software development lifecycle and modern software engineering practices.
  • A proven track record in working with large organisations, handling multiple stakeholders, effectively dealing with conflict of interest is a plus.
We do not expect you to qualify for all of the above points. A good understanding of some of these areas and a willingness to develop expertise in others may actually be sufficient.

We are not concerned with your education or any other formalism. What we are concerned with are your passion, knowledge and experience.
