Have a look at the Innovation department
At Swile, the Innovation department (80 tech) is divided into 14 feature teams spread over our 4 Tribes 🦾
Swile Card (Employees benefits; gifts, cards, meal vouchers, mobility… )
Swile App (Praise, insights, messaging…)
Affiliates (our affiliate partners; restaurants / GMS brands / marketplace / e-commerce site, etc.)
Core (our cross-functional teams; security, finance, payment, engineering efficiency, platform, etc.)

Our technology is mainly made up of web developers experienced in Ruby / Ruby-on-Rails (40%) and JS Node & React (60%) technologies and frameworks, fullswift iOS mobile side and fullKotlin Android.
The Swile platform is made up of several web applications and micro-services, each of which has its own database and API. Our infrastructure is hosted on AWS and described in Terraform. We are starting a migration of all our servers to Kubernetes ⚙️ Joining Swile means working on a service with very high potential, which is deployed internationally (LATAM), and which involves real technical challenges; scalability, user traffic, B2B2C, payment… 🚀
Our IT relies on a fleet including macOS, Windows workstations, an Azure ADDS, MDM and collaborative tools like Google Workspace

We are looking for our first Chaos Engineer Intern !

Your team: Attached to the Platform & SecOps Scope, you will join our Platform Team (6 Site Reliability Engineers + you).

You’re working closely with other Tech teams (Backend, Data, Security, etc.) to craft and operate efficient, reliable, and scalable environments for customers and Swilers.

Your role: You will work alongside Software Engineers and Site Reliability Engineers to lay the foundation of the Chaos Engineering culture at Swile. As a forerunner on this domain, you will help uncover weaknesses in our applications and infrastructure by recreating real world conditions such as instance outages, large traffic spikes and unforeseen applications calls to help developers make our products more resilient and secure. In short, break stuff in a controlled way in order to study how they fall apart!

Your mission 🔥 :

• An understanding of how distributed systems work, their patterns, their weakness and their pitfalls
• Curiosity! Be constantly looking out for new tools, taking initiative and proposing improvements!
• An interest in helping and guiding people! Helping our development teams to understand where issues are and how to fix their problems is paramount once they have been revealed
