Job description

Lenstra was founded by engineers with a passion for Computer Science and a track record of delivering high-quality solutions. We work at the intersection of Cloud Computing, DevOps, Data Platforms, and IT Security, helping top-tier clients in Banking, Insurance, Luxury, and Tech solve their hardest technical challenges.

Our team takes a holistic approach to each client's environment, building solutions that are as elegant as they are impactful. Most of our engineers are core contributors to open-source projects like CPython, Postgres, and Terraform, and we hold strong commitments to engineering excellence and ethics.

About the role

• Own infrastructure management, monitoring and disaster recovery.
• Take on DevSecOps responsibilities — secrets management, security posture, pipeline hardening.
• Optimise cloud architecture for performance, security and cost.
• Share knowledge, write documentation, and stay sharp on what's new.
• One thing worth flagging: part of the ramp-up will involve getting hands-on with HashiCorp Vault. If you haven't used it yet, that's fine — we'll support you. If you already have, even better.

What we look for

• Precision-minded. You care about the details and hold yourself to a high standard.
• Strong problem-solver. You analyse before you act, and you keep the customer's success at the centre.
• Clear communicator. Fluent in English and French, both written and spoken.
• Fluent in Python. You're comfortable writing production-quality code.
• Infrastructure-as-code mindset. You think in code, not in click-ops.
• Comfortable in cloud environments. Solid knowledge of public or private cloud.
• Humble and growth-oriented. You take code reviews as a chance to learn, not as a verdict.
• Hands-on experience with Terraform or similar IaC tools.
• Familiarity with Docker and Kubernetes.
• Experience with CI/CD pipelines and DevOps practices.
• A Master's degree in Computer Science, Engineering, or a related field.
• Fluency in both English and French.

Salary from 48k to 70k — based on seniority and interview performance, no surprises
