Senior Platform Engineer
AWS - Terraform - Python
High Level
As a Senior Platform Engineer at Bidnamic you will be contributing towards building and maintaining a high performance engineering culture. You will be given an environment where you will be challenged yet able to lean on your experience to deliver real tangible value.
How we work
We are strong proponents of async working - this means we have set up our working ways to accommodate for the fact that not everyone will be online when you need them. This means we don’t do on-call or in person standups, rather we have a standup channel engineers post daily goals to. After reviewing these goals you can provide input to steer the ship and answer any questions. You might also arrange a quick huddle if you feel the project or discussion point warrants it. This makes for a very proactive culture, as each engineer is responsible to ensure they have what they need in good time in order for them to maximise their time and effort - like this we support each other.
What we are looking for
- Strong understanding of AWS Compute, Storage, Container and Networking services
- You are able to comprehend and break down complexity into smaller tasks and work in small increments to solve it
- You are able to continually reshape the scope of your work, always leaning towards delivering value early
- Able to deep dive into an AWS service and evaluate its usefulness to Bidnamic
- You understand the benefits of building and maintaining CI/CD pipelines and are able to do so
- You understand when to scale vertically and horizontally for maximum business value
- You’re a master collaborator and able to work with all stakeholders, understanding their needs and offering solutions
- You are able to write minimal yet meaningful documentation
- You handle incidents with care and attention to detail - ensuring we log and handle incidents mindfully, gather learnings so to be better going forwards
- Always look to uphold best practises and refactoring our IaC to ensure we remain lean
- Proficient in or have a deep desire to learn our tech stack.
