  • 2+ years of experience developing applications on K8S using HELM/Kustomize/Crossplane/CDK/Other

  • Experience working with open source K8S charts such as: Keycloak, Debezium, Airflow, Temporal, a feature flag system or LangSmith

What we offer:

- A culture that values product ownership, collaborative architectural planning, and building wins for your resume/portfolio as much as for the company.

Why it works

3×

more interviews than doing it yourself with ChatGPT.

ChatGPT writes a CV and never learns what happened to it. We see every reply. For each CV we know:

  • How it was written, and how the review scored it
  • When we applied, and how long after the posting went up
  • Which posting, which company, which city
  • Who got the interview, and who heard nothing

That is how we know which CVs get called.
