About Staffbase
At Staffbase we believe that Communication moves people, and people move companies. Our mission is to empower leaders and communicators to drive transformation through internal comms solutions, strategies, and insights. Our most recent Series E funding led by General Atlantic, officially launched us to UNICORN status!
We're headquartered in Chemnitz, Germany, with offices in many locations throughout the world, including New York, London, Berlin and Dresden. Our international team counts more than 800 employees from 45+ nationalities and we have a growing base of 2500+ customers that want to transform their employee experience. We are rapidly scaling, post-Series E ($115 million funding), have strong-growing revenue, and our customers love us.
At Staffbase, we face the challenge of incredible growth and year after year, we are multiplying - not only in terms of headcount and customers, but also in terms of traffic and resource usage. Our growing customer base actively uses their respective employee experience apps on a daily basis. We build hundreds of these custom-branded apps, need to store tons of data and serve a magnitude of HTTP requests.
To achieve this, we rely on Kubernetes and other tools from the CNCF Landscape, such as Istio, Prometheus, FluxCD and Terraform. Together with our development teams we operate a service-oriented architecture that communicates over REST, gRPC, and Kafka. Furthermore, we store data in multiple databases, including MongoDB, ClickHouse, Elasticsearch and PostgreSQL. In addition to that, we also work on our own tools and services, such as our observability platform, which we mostly develop with Go.
To be able to sustainably grow our infrastructure further we are looking for a self-driven individual who is passionate about site reliability engineering and is committed to delivering high-quality services to our customers. You will play a key role in ensuring the reliability, availability, scalability and sustainability of our platform. If you are an empathetic team player who is motivated by growth and ownership, we would love to hear from you!

- Design, implement and maintain the infrastructure and tools necessary for the reliable operation of our platform
- Monitor and analyze system performance to identify and resolve issues before they impact our customers
- Work collaboratively with development teams to deploy new features and services in a reliable and scalable manner
