About Us

Platform Engineering is reshaping how enterprises build and run their cloud-native setups, and Humanitec is leading this transformation. Our mission is to help teams build Internal Developer Platforms (IDPs) that unlock true developer self-service.

This is where you come in.

With our next-generation product, Humanitec Platform Orchestrator v2, successfully launched, we are focused on scaling and evolving our new product line. We’re looking for people who want to help us build the future of our product, shaping the roadmap, and defining what Platform Engineering looks like in the years ahead.

About the Role

We are looking for a Senior Software/Product Engineer to help us scale our work to build and scale our category-defining Platform Orchestrator. In this role, you will share ownership of how our products are built and evolve, contributing to our long-term vision and the products that help to realize it.

We work across a modern, diverse stack, including:

• Microservices (APIs) written in Go, running on Kubernetes

• Web apps built with React and TypeScript

• A CLI and ancillary tools/services primarily written in Go

• Pervasive unit, integration, and e2e tests written in Go, Robot Framework, Playwright, and more

• Infrastructure automation in Terraform/OpenTofu

• Emerging areas, including chat-based interfaces built on third-party LLMs

To thrive in this role, you must be comfortable with start-up life: shipping constantly, rolling up your sleeves to help debug customer issues, absorbing a frequently evolving roadmap, managing regular uncertainty, and picking up work across our stack. Our focus is on impact and value for our customers. That said, we invest the time to write design documents for our work, review docs and pull requests asynchronously, recognizing that engineers are more productive focused at their desk than on a video call.

Humanitec is an all-remote company. Our small teams work closely to do big things. We value the intersection of humility, drive, and intelligence. In this fully remote role, you’ll be given substantial autonomy in your work and consistent, empathetic feedback on your performance. Preferred time zones for this role are UTC-1 to UTC+3.

What You Will Bring:

• Excellent communication & collaboration: You are comfortable working in a fully remote environment, working across GitHub, Notion, Slack, Linear, Datadog, your IDE, and more. You prioritize and protect your focus time, but don't hesitate to jump on a call when a situation demands it. You don’t offload communication or coordination to product/project managers – you own our work end-to-end, from writing design docs for new work to hopping on a call with a customer to debug something in production.

• Strong problem-solving and coding skills: You value designing solutions to customer problems – from researching and defining use cases, to writing design documents, to implementing clean solutions that address them.

• Hands-on experience with infrastructure: whether you’ve been part of an on-call rotation or just working day-to-day observability tools, you are comfortable rolling up your sleeves to understand the factors at play in an incident or service degradation.

• Pragmatism: You are comfortable balancing “perfect” with “good enough,” as an individual and as part of a team.

• Modern cloud experience: You have built and run apps on Kubernetes on cloud platforms like AWS, GCP, or Azure. You are familiar with Docker, IaC (Terraform or OpenTofu), and modern CI/CD pipelines.

• Bias to action: You are comfortable working in a fast-paced, often ambiguous environment. You take initiative, ask questions, and use pragmatism when making decisions.

What You Will Do:

• Contribute to our core product: Engineering at Humanitec is a team sport. You’ll work across our stack - primarily in Go - on services that power our applications. (Experience working in Go is a plus, but not required.)

• Design and refine technical systems: You will share ownership of customer use cases and the systems that power them – microservices, customer interfaces, automated tests – and help shape them to remain scalable, reliable, and elegant as they evolve.

• Collaborate closely across disciplines: You will partner with colleagues across the organization to explore problems, prototype ideas, and iterate quickly.

• Improve how we build: We value thoughtful abstractions, clean interfaces, and solid testing. You will help to continuously evolve our engineering pratices.

If this sounds like a fit, we would love to hear from you!
