Description

Job Overview

We are seeking a Staff Engineer to lead our EU Infrastructure team, focusing on building and operating compute, cloud, and networking capabilities for Wolt, Deliveroo, and DoorDash. As a hands-on technical leader, you will set direction for the platform, solve complex problems, and mentor engineers.

Responsibilities

  • Set technical direction for shared AWS and Kubernetes infrastructure, balancing reliability, security, developer experience, and cost.
  • Lead substantial initiatives from design through rollout and operation, coordinating dependencies and decisions across Wolt, Deliveroo, and DoorDash.
  • Evolve Kubernetes clusters, cloud networking, identity, and infrastructure provisioning to support growing and varied workloads.
  • Build reusable Terraform patterns and self-service tooling for safe and consistent infrastructure provisioning.
  • Improve deployment and operational practices, including GitOps, observability, capacity planning, incident response, and recovery.
  • Use production signals and developer feedback to identify platform friction and measure the effectiveness of changes.
  • Assist with supporting the platform, focusing on GPU infrastructure and compute in general.
  • Mentor engineers through design reviews, implementation, and incidents.

Requirements

  • Deep experience building and operating Kubernetes and AWS infrastructure in production.
  • Strong software engineering skills in languages like Go or Python.
  • Experience with infrastructure as code (Terraform) and designing systems for other engineering teams.
  • A track record of leading complex technical work across teams.
  • Strong judgment on trade-offs in distributed systems, networking, security, reliability, and cloud cost.
  • Clear communication and the ability to bring people together around a practical technical direction.

Benefits

  • Scope and influence: shape infrastructure used globally while staying close to engineering.
  • Real problems at global scale: work on multi-cluster Kubernetes, AI/ML workloads, cloud networking, and more.
  • Autonomy and ownership: set direction and see it through from design to operation.
  • Growth: room to expand your scope through deeper technical leadership or broader cross-domain influence.
  • Great people: work with talented engineers and leaders in a diverse, international environment.
