SCAYLE is one of the fastest-growing enterprise commerce platforms in the world, enabling brands and retailers to realize their D2C ambitions. SCAYLE stands for innovation, international collaboration, and a strong focus on data. We believe that stepping outside of our comfort zone and making bold decisions is key to growing both professionally and personally. Instead of seeing problems as obstacles, we approach them as opportunities to find better solutions. We work in an environment that encourages flexibility, creativity, and continuous development. What drives us is the shared motivation to make an impact and actively shape the future of eCommerce.

  • Architect and evolve: Maintain and continuously improve our AWS infrastructure using Infrastructure as Code (IaC), focusing on engineering a robust, secure, and cost-efficient environment

  • Ownership: Take full ownership of critical platform components running on Kubernetes, including scaling strategies, secrets management, and core networking (VPC, ingress)
  • Ensure availability: Design, implement and maintain comprehensive observability solutions (monitoring, alerting, and logging using Datadog, Opensearch, and fluentd) to guarantee the platform's flawless, uninterrupted 24/7 availability
  • Partner and enable: Act as an autonomous partner and expert consultant to internal development teams, treating them as key customers and collaboratively driving operational excellence across the organization
  • At least 5+ years of experience as a Platform or Site Reliability Engineer
  • You have strong experience with AWS and Infrastructure as Code (IaC)
  • You are confident working with containerization and orchestration (Docker, Kubernetes)
  • You bring a solid background in CI/CD tools (e.g. GitLab CI)Terraform is more than a science fiction term for you
  • You can Go (basic to intermediate level)
  • You are a strong collaborator, working closely with agile development teams and internal stakeholders
