Description:

At Perlego, there's just over 100 of us working hard to make education accessible to all.

In this digital age, we believe that anyone should be able to learn anything at any time. Knowledge should be more accessible, not locked behind sky-high price tags.

Over the past 5 years our goal has been to support students across the UK & Europe to access quality books. The next stage of Perlego is two fold:
1) expand our support to students globally, and
2) build a product that goes beyond the book, a platform that helps students study smarter and more effectively.

  • You will help shape infrastructure designs and architecture helping to build a better learning experience for our users in collaboration with our technical leaders.
  • You will collaborate with other Engineering Managers in the team to support product squads in their infrastructure needs.
  • You will provide mentoring, guidance and coaching for a group of cloud infrastructure engineers helping them grow their skills and collectively achieve their goals.
  • You will run process improvement and measurement activities across the engineering organisation.
  • You will contribute to growing our engineering organisation, its capabilities and culture.

  • A good understanding of security best-practices & DevSecOps principles.
  • Commercial experience as a Senior Cloud Infrastructure Engineer.
  • A strong desire to lead and motivate a team to achieve their best.
  • An excellent understanding of Linux
  • AWS certifications

⭐️ It’s a plus if you have:

  • A degree - preferably in a computing related subject
  • Experience in a startup environment
  • Experience with other infrastructure as code technologies (Terraform & AWS CDK(Typescript))
  • Experience with configuration management tooling (Ansible)
  • Experience operating globally deployed infrastructure.
  • A good understanding of CDN's (Cloudflare) and caching
