About the project

We’re looking for engineers to join our DevOps team and take care of our cloud infrastructure. We work closely with developers, focusing on automation, self-healing systems, and best practices like Infrastructure as Code, code reviews, and CI/CD.

Cloud is at the heart of everything we do — we use modern solutions and continuously improve our architecture. A big part of your work will support our in-house Smart Kitchen Operating System (SKOS) — a platform made up of applications that optimize all aspects of our cloud kitchens in real time. It's the engine behind our operations, and your work will directly impact its performance, scalability, and efficiency.

We avoid manual work — everything should be defined in code. We're looking for people curious about new cloud technologies, who manage priorities well and can deliver work in small, manageable chunks. Strong communication skills are key. We value team players who actively share knowledge and care about collaboration.

Your responsibilities

• Managing cloud infrastructure with a focus on scalability, reliability, and automation
• Owning and evolving our Infrastructure as Code setup to support fast and safe deployments
• Collaborating closely with Platform Team and Product Teams to understand their needs and deliver infrastructure solutions that enable efficient delivery
• Building tools and processes that help teams work more effectively — from CI/CD improvements to system monitoring and self-healing mechanisms
• Ensuring our systems run smoothly in production by improving observability and resolving infrastructure issues proactively
• Sharing knowledge and contributing to a DevOps culture within the wider tech organization
