We’re trusted by more than 10,000 companies worldwide, including Wise, On Running, Breitling, and Fabletics, and we’re tackling the 7 hours of lost productivity per employee each week, a $1.7 trillion problem.

Job Description

We are seeking a Platform Engineer to join our team and help build, maintain, and scale the infrastructure and tools that empower our developers to deliver reliable, secure, and high-performing services. If you’re an experienced Platform Engineer, or a Software Engineer with a passion for Platform and Developer Experience, we would love to speak with you.

Responsibilities:
  • Design, build and maintain scalable, and reliable cloud infrastructure in AWS

  • Enable development teams to be owners of their systems and to deliver high impact products to our users

  • Partner with SRE and security teams to help developers build resilient and secure applications

  • Participate in our on-call and incident management process as part of a “you build it, you run it” mentality

Requirements:
  • 3+ years of hands-on experience managing systems in AWS (EC2, S3, RDS, IAM, VPC, etc.).

  • Strong knowledge of Infrastructure as Code (Terraform, Pulumi, etc.).

  • Solid understanding of CI/CD practices and tools (GitHub Actions, CircleCI, etc.).

  • Experience with monitoring and observability tools (Datadog, CloudWatch, etc.).

  • Experience with containerisation and container orchestration (Docker, ECS, Kubernetes, etc.).

  • Proficiency in at least one programming/scripting language (Python, Go, or Bash).

  • Strong problem-solving and troubleshooting skills in distributed systems.

  • Excellent communication and collaboration abilities.

Advantageous but not essential:
  • Experience with Windows systems and .NET applications

  • Experience with serverless architectures

  • Experience with defining advanced cloud networking setups

  • Familiarity with SOC2, ISO 27001, or other compliance frameworks

Compensation for this role is a combination of salary and stock options. The anticipated base salary range is $130000 - $150000 per year. Actual compensation may vary based on specific qualifications, experience, and other job-related factors.

How We Work

At Perk, we take an IRL-first approach to work, where our team works together in-person 3 days a week. As such, this role requires you to be based within commuting distance of our hubs. We fundamentally believe in the value of meeting in real life to improve connectivity, productivity, creativity and ultimately making us a great place to work.

For certain roles, we can help with relocation from anywhere in the world, English is the official language at the office. Please submit your resume in English if you choose to apply. Do not forget to submit an updated portfolio and/or resume.

Perk is a global company with a diverse customer base, and we want to make sure the people behind our product reflect that. We’re an equal opportunity employer, which means you’re welcome at Perk regardless of how you look, where you’re from, or anything else that makes you, well, you.

Protect Yourself from Recruitment Scams

All official communication from Perk will always come from email addresses ending in @perk.com or @externalperk.com, our verified social media channels, or recruiters listed on our official LinkedIn page. We will never ask you to pay for equipment, training, or fees, request sensitive personal information such as bank details early in the process, or communicate through unofficial apps like WhatsApp, Telegram, or Signal. If you receive a message claiming to be from Perk that seems suspicious, please do not respond. Forward it to [email protected], and we will confirm whether it is legitimate.
