Position

Jodel is looking for a Site Reliability Engineer for their Engineering team. They are dealing with dynamics such as being local, signup-lean and many more, which give us new problems to solve, and we’re literally breaking new ground in the Social Network space.

• Advanced experience with Linux, Networks, and CDNs
• Experience with running Kubernetes in production
• You are passionate about infrastructure as code using tools such as Terraform and Ansible
• You are ready to contribute with coding skills in Go or Python as well
• Experience with CI/CD pipelines to push code from dev to prod with confidence
• You know how to monitor services using Prometheus and use it to find problems within infrastructures

Will be a plus

• A good experience operating a multi-cloud environment, preferrably AWS and GCP
• Experience with CI/CD pipelines in the Kubernetes ecosystem
• Experience with security best practices
• You know the sweet stop for documentation and that it’s never “all or nothing”

What we offer

• An Empowered Team – Engineering owns tech debt and tech improvement decisions; we collaborate tightly with our product team but we’re all very mindful not to step on each other’s toes. We own technical decisions, take responsibility and are accountable for them
• Preventive, rather than reactive culture – While some of us participate in on call activities, we have a very low amount of actual production emergencies. A lot of energy goes into fixing root causes and we are very proud of not having anyone in firefighting mode
• Career building is part of the deal – you don’t join to just write tests and contribute to the product - you also join to improve your career. We pay special attention to your personal development and make sure you’re focusing on the skills that matter the most to you
• Lean processes – we try hard to cut meetings and processes to a minimum, to ensure that you’re focusing on being productive
• United in diversity – with people from all over the world, from Tunisia to France, from India to the Poland, we are multicultural by default and proud to be so
• We’re building a team, not just making money – we solve hard problems together but we also relax and have fun. From team cooking to going on company trips, from office parties to go-karting, we’ll make sure you have a good work-life balance
• The future will be amazing – the list of non-trivial challenges we’ll be dealing with includes developer APIs, security issues, scaling access to a lot of data (among other things we can’t tell you about :-) ); all of this with location and anonymity as their own dimensions in Jodel
• No one else is doing what we’re doing – it’s that simple. We’re pioneering local communication and since communication is a basic human need, our work is just very very exciting. On top of that, we are one of the few large scale European Social Networks. There’s not that many and we’re very proud to be “Made in Europe”
