Senior Backend Engineer, Deployment Environments
from GitLab · read the original and apply on their site
Remote, United Kingdom
Our take: The real work here is building the tooling, environments, and platform contracts that make GitLab easier to deploy and validate across every environment it runs in.
If you love the seam where developer workflows meet production infrastructure, this is your patch: building the tooling, contracts, and ephemeral environments that make GitLab easier to deploy and validate everywhere it runs. You will get to modernise legacy deployment guidance into a clean cloud-native model and give engineers confidence long before things reach production. It is remote, pragmatic, systems-thinking work where durable platform capability matters more than quick wins.
