Description

Passionate about infrastructure and security, your head always in the cloud, and looking for new challenges? You might be a great fit for us at Divio. We’re a small hosting provider, but we punch above our weight with ambitious goals and an infrastructure that keeps things exciting. What is Divio? Divio is a remote-first company of 18 passionate people spread across Europe. We're small, focused, and genuinely into tech. Our main product is a multi-cloud Platform-as-a-Service (PaaS) that simplifies the deployment of Docker-based applications, a great fit for partner agencies and developers who want to move fast without getting lost in DevOps complexity. Feel free to try our Divio Cloud platform if you want to see what we’re building! In parallel, we manage a large-scale AWS setup for a single enterprise client, powering over 100 highly available websites. These two projects live on opposite ends of the cloud spectrum - one on minimal abstractions, one deep in the AWS ecosystem - and that mix is what keeps our work challenging and fun. More importantly, we care about how we work. We value curiosity, ownership, and clarity. There's no heavy hierarchy here - everyone brings ideas, and we build together. We’re looking for someone who’s not just technically sharp but genuinely enjoys solving problems with others. What tech are we playing with? Divio Cloud Our custom-built PaaS is based on Docker and Django microservices. Designed to be portable across clouds, it’s built on primitives like VMs, object storage, load balancers, and managed DBs (e.g., EC2, S3, RDS/OpenSearch). Deployed with Ansible reinforced with Python and custom tooling. External tools include Datadog, Redis, Elasticsearch, Nessus, and more. The platform supports any Dockerized app, which means we often get to explore new stacks, languages, and frameworks to help clients. Enterprise AWS Platform This environment is almost the opposite: purely AWS, highly serverless. Static frontends built with Gatsby and Storyblok, enhanced with Lambda APIs. Infrastructure as Code is written in AWS CDK (Typescript). Other tools in the mix: GitHub Actions, Cloudflare, DynamoDB, API Gateway, etc. It’s a landscape that requires flexibility: jumping between stacks, mindsets, and even languages! If you love variety, you’ll thrive here. What's the job? As a Site Reliability Engineer (SRE) at Divio, you’ll take care of the reliability, performance, security, and cost-effectiveness of both infrastructures. You won’t be doing it alone, but you will have autonomy and influence. Your week-to-week will involve: Keeping the lights on: patching, tuning, incident response, and keeping the stack healthy Pushing long-term improvements: migrations, internal tooling, security hardening, monitoring revamps Shaping the infrastructure: evolving our setup to stay modern, secure, and developer-friendly helping: our internal support crew for technical questions or the external dev team with their day-to-day We aim to balance quick fixes and deep refactors so there's always something meaningful to work on. Our workflows: On the Divio Cloud side, we work in 2-week sprints guided by quarterly OKRs. It’s a flexible, engineer-led process where priorities are set together. We keep things lightweight and adaptive, and rotate support/on-call weekly across the team. The Enterprise AWS project follows a more structured 3-week Scrum cycle, with regular planning and retrospectives. It involves tighter coordination with the client and an external development team. Are you the one? We work across a wide spectrum of technologies and patterns. If you’re an SRE who: Has solid experience in infrastructure and software (Python and Typescript are our main tools) Enjoys switching contexts and solving real-world problems Doesn’t mind complexity, and even enjoys taming it Can work independently but wants to build with a team Has ideas and wants a say in how things evolve Then you’ll probably feel at home with us. We're not looking for someone who knows everything, just someone who’s curious, reliable, and ready to grow with us. In summary... We’re a small team working on interesting infrastructure with a lot of freedom and responsibility. There’s real variety in the work, and plenty of opportunities to learn, improve things, and have an impact, both on the platform and on how we work as a team! If that sounds like your kind of job, we’d really like to hear from you. Must have: Excellent command of written and spoken English Solid expertise in Docker, AWS, and cloud-native infrastructure Programming experience, ideally in Python and TypeScript (but Go, Java, etc. also welcome) Experience with configuration management and Infrastructure as Code, ideally Ansible and AWS CDK Strong foundational knowledge (Linux, networking, the TCP/IP stack, load balancing, etc.) A reliable and proactive mindset, you take responsibility and can work independently Comfort with support tasks and professionalism when communicating with clients Nice to have: Hands-on Linux system administration and tuning experience Familiarity with Django or other Python web frameworks Experience using AWS CDK, specifically with TypeScript Operational knowledge of services like PostgreSQL, Redis, RabbitMQ, Elasticsearch Any experience with the tools and technologies mentioned in our stack
