About the job:

The Technical Platform Teams provide the foundations for the structure and operations of the entire Allegro platform. This is where we build tools, development and infrastructure stacks and automation systems used by more than a hundred Allegro product teams and by the customer support department. We develop the full stack, starting from our own server room and private cloud, through containerization, mobile apps and application software to tools which offer AI support to our customers. At the same time, we are responsible for the performance, availability and security of the entire platform.

Our team is responsible for service to service communication. Our Service Mesh proxies 2 million RPS. We are using Consul for Service Discovery and Envoy + in-house control plane for Service Mesh. We are migrating to Istio.

By joining us, you will have a real impact on the infrastructure at Allegro. You will design and implement highly scalable distributed solutions to facilitate business teams.

Important things for you

- Annual bonus based on your annual performance and company results.
Our team is based in Poznań.

We are looking for people who:

Are familiar with Go language (must have)
Good knowledge of Kubernetes

Want to be proud of the code they create. They eagerly accept comments and share knowledge during code reviews
Can look for effective solutions to the requirements set by users
Want to constantly develop and update their knowledge
Know English at B2 level (communication in the team is in English)

Nice to have:

Good knowledge of Istio or any other service mesh
Commercial experience in Java or any high level language
Practical experience building infrastructure on a cloud provider (GCP preferred) and/or on bare metal

What's in it for you:

Well-located offices (with e.g. fully equipped kitchens, bicycle parking, terraces full of greenery) and excellent work tools (e.g., raised desks, ergonomic chairs, interactive conference rooms).
A 16" or 14" MacBook Pro or corresponding Dell with Windows (if you don't like Macs) and all the necessary accessories.
A wide selection of fringe benefits in a cafeteria plan - you choose what you like (e.g., medical, sports or lunch packages, insurance, purchase vouchers).
English classes that we pay for related to the specific nature of your job.
A training budget, inter-team tourism (see more here), hackathons, and an internal learning platform where you will find multiple trainings.
An additional day off for volunteering, which you can use alone, with a team, or with a larger group of people connected by a common goal.
Social events for Allegro people - Spin Kilometers, Family Day, Fat Thursday, Advent of Code, and many other occasions we enjoy.

And that's just the beginning! You can read more about the benefits here.

#goodtobehere means that:

You will join a team you can count on - we work with top-class specialists who have knowledge- and experience-sharing in their DNA.
You will love our level of autonomy in team organization, the space for continuous development, and the opportunity to try new things. You get to choose which technology solves the problem and you are responsible for what you create.
You will value our Developer Experience and the full platform of tools and technologies that make creating software easier. We rely on an internal ecosystem based on self-service and widely used tools such as Kubernetes, Docker, Consul, GitHub, and GitHub Actions. Thanks to this, you can contribute to Allegro from your very first days on the job.
You will be equipped with modern AI tools to automate repetitive tasks, allowing you to focus on developing new services and refining existing ones (also leveraging AI support).
You will create solutions that will be used (and loved!) by your friends, family and millions of our customers.
You will meet the Allegro Scale, which starts with over 1000 microservices, an open-source data bus (Hermes) with 300K+ rps, a Service Mesh with 1M+ rps, tens of petabytes of data, and production-used machine learning.
You will become part of Allegro Tech - We speak at industry conferences, cooperate with tech communities, run our own blog (it's been over 10 years!), record podcasts, lead guilds, and we organize our own internal conference - the Allegro Tech Meeting. We create solutions we love (and can) to talk about!
