A Senior Infrastructure Solutions Engineer responsible for making infrastructure easier to use in a space and data company.
Обязанности
- A Senior Infrastructure Solutions Engineer makes Planet's infrastructure easier to use. Infra Solutions is a small, multi-disciplinary team: engineers who are as comfortable operating a system as building one, and as comfortable in a hard conversation as in a code review. We sit between the teams who build Planet's platform capabilities and the teams who need them, and our market is every engineering team at Planet, which we earn one engagement at a time. Teams work with us because we make their week lighter, not because anyone told them to, and every team that lands on the platform is infrastructure Planet no longer has to duplicate, secure and pay for.
- Most of what you do takes the shape of a hands-on engagement with a team that is blocked, mid-migration, or arriving on the platform for the first time. They usually arrive with a proposed solution rather than the problem behind it, and working out the difference is where the engagement starts. From there you own it end to end: the diagnosis, the hands-on fix, the argument for what should change upstream, and the durable artifact that stops the next team hitting the same wall. This is a role driven by unreasonable hospitality (value out of proportion to what anyone asked us for) and backed by solid engineering and operator depth. You have run things in production, and you write the code other engineers depend on. The ideal candidate is energized by other teams' success: someone who would rather ship the thing that makes ten teams faster than own a system outright, and who does their best work in a room they don't own, with people who are not yet convinced they need help.
- This is a full-time, remote position based in Germany, the Netherlands or Slovenia. If located near a Planet office, you are expected to work from that office 3 days per week.
Требования
- 6+ years of professional experience in Platform Engineering, DevOps, or Site Reliability Engineering, including experience leading at least one cross-team project or migration.
- Bachelor’s degree in a relevant field.
- Background in technical enablement, developer experience, or solutions architecture with a focus on internal developer productivity.
- Hands-on experience operating and maintaining production infrastructure environments.
- Deep expertise with Kubernetes orchestration, including workload optimization and operations.
- Working knowledge of Google Cloud Platform (GCP) or other public cloud providers, including its compute, storage, quota, and capacity mode.
- Experience with Infrastructure as Code (Terraform, Helm, ArgoCD) and CI/CD pipelines.
- Proficiency in software development using Go or Python.
- Ability to translate ambiguous requirements into structured, actionable engineering tasks.
- Excellent written and verbal communication skills for technical documentation and cross-functional collaboration.
