Senior Platform Engineer (DevSecOps)

Build the Infrastructure Behind Space Missions

At Creotech Instruments, we develop advanced technologies for space missions, satellite systems and critical infrastructure projects.

We’re building a Platform & DevSecOps team responsible for creating and operating the engineering capabilities that support software development, cybersecurity, AI workloads and mission-critical systems across the organization.

This team serves the entire engineering organization. We identify bottlenecks, improve reliability, automate operations and deliver shared platform capabilities that enable teams to move faster and operate with confidence.

If you enjoy building robust systems, solving complex technical challenges and taking ownership of infrastructure that truly matters, we’d like to hear from you.

Your Role

As a Senior Platform Engineer, you will help design, build and operate the internal platforms that support the development and operation of advanced space technologies.

Your responsibilities will include

• Operating and evolving the organization’s CI/CD platform and build infrastructure.
• Designing and maintaining observability solutions covering metrics, logging, tracing and alerting.
• Building and managing infrastructure through Infrastructure as Code and automation-first practices.
• Maintaining software artifact repositories, container registries and distribution services.
• Designing, implementing and regularly validating backup, recovery and disaster recovery procedures.
• Operating production Kubernetes clusters deployed on-premises.
• Improving platform reliability, security and operational efficiency.
• Developing self-service capabilities that simplify infrastructure consumption across engineering teams.
• Supporting the implementation of DevSecOps practices and secure-by-design solutions.
• Contributing to the continuous improvement of engineering processes and technical standards.
