The team powers Developer Sandbox, which is a free public-facing production service which provides users with a 30-day trial experience to a selection of Red Hat products. Users get instant access to an environment (namespace-as-a-service) for evaluation and experimentation.

This role offers a unique opportunity to work in one of the most exciting production environments. Your job will be to develop, scale, and operate our service to become the default hands-on, no setup trial experience for Red Hat products.

As a Software Engineer on the Developer Sandbox team, you'll design and implement new features as well as robust security measures to fend off misuse, supercharge our monitoring systems for long-term sustainability, and automate tedious processes to free up your creativity. You'll also have the opportunity to explore specialized career paths in areas like monitoring, observability, alerting, feature and tool development, maintenance, and managing OpenShift production clusters. We develop, test, deploy, and maintain – while fostering an environment where transparency, teamwork, and diverse voices are celebrated. We embrace a culture of learning from our failures in a blame-free setting, ensuring every challenge is a stepping stone to growth. If you’re driven by the same passion for cutting-edge technologies and running OpenShift in the real world, we would love hearing from you.
