Senior Kafka Platform Engineer

LinuxRecruit; London; On-site; GBP 50,000 - 90,000; Full time

Job description

Hola!

Kafka expert who dreams in connectors, Kubernetes clusters, and DevOps? Want to do it all under the Spanish sun? Then this is the role for you, working for one of the world’s most high-profile FinTech platforms.

They’re on the lookout for a new team of DevOps Engineers with strong Kafka skills to help scale their systems and support the internal dev platform; all from their office just a stone’s throw from the beach.

You’ll take charge of Kafka clusters running in Kubernetes (yep, Strimzi too), automate lifecycle tasks, implement security, solve production issues, and make sure everything’s running smoothly. You’ll also help developers onboard to Kubernetes and lend a hand on infrastructure maintenance about one day a week.

If you’ve worked with Kafka in production, tuned performance, set up replication, and secured it with SSL, SASL or ACLs, you’re already a great fit. Bonus points if you know ClickHouse, Ansible, observability tools such as Prometheus, or just have a knack for high-throughput systems.

In return, you’ll get private health insurance, performance bonuses, and a comfy, well-equipped office. Oh, and a gym, annual team events, and flexible working hours to suit your lifestyle.

So if Kafka is your thing and you’re ready to swap cloudy skies for cloud-native systems in sunny Spain, apply now!
