## Description

SENIOR SOFTWARE ENGINEER, INFRASTRUCTURE




THE ROLE

We are hiring a Senior Software Engineer to help rebuild the platform underneath Stream. Over the next year the infrastructure team is moving from AWS to GCP, moving onto Kubernetes, and relocating 35 to 40 Postgres shards off managed RDS to self-hosted, while the platform keeps serving billions of API requests a month. You will own parts of that outright.

This is a small, senior team without the support structures of a large organisation. You will write code most of the time and make infrastructure calls on your own. Success looks like systems that scale predictably under load, cloud spend that falls per unit of traffic, and migrations that land without incident.

This is a full-time job opening based in Amsterdam (3 days hybrid) or remote in Europe/EU.
