Job description

At Baracoda we are avid DevOps practitioners and cloud native computing adepts. Our systems are entirely cloud-based, mostly built on AWS but also on Alicloud and Azure. Our infrastructure is defined as code using Terraform and Kubernetes. We build systems that are extensively tested and can be deployed automatically through a CI/CD pipeline, and that can scale automatically to support millions of users.

We use an event-based microservices architecture centered around the NATS queue system in our new projects, while existing projects are being refactored towards this architecture. Some other components of our tech stack:

  • CI/CD: werf + ArgoCD
  • Monitoring: Prometheus, Grafana
  • Logging: EFK stack
  • Authentication: Ambassador

Baracoda already operates infrastructure at scale for some of its companies, such as Kolibree, the company building connected toothbrushes under the Colgate brand. We are ambitious and intend to replicate this success in many other projects across the oral care space. As lead infrastructure engineer, you will design and implement infrastructure for new projects in Baracoda, as well as improve and maintain the infrastructure of existing projects. You will be the only dedicated infrastructure expert in the group, but you will be working with our backend lead and with several of our backend developers who are experienced in infrastructure.

At Baracoda, we strive to keep learning to improve both ourselves and our systems continuously. New ideas are encouraged, and we often dedicate time to researching new technologies and working on Proof of Concepts while designing infrastructure. Each of us can also take half a day per month to self-train on any topic, even if not directly related to the projects at hand.
