Who are we?
We are Penneo, and we are on a mission to scale!
At Penneo, we want to build a world where you can trust the way businesses do business.

Penneo combines digital signing and Know Your Customer (KYC) workflows into a single platform that streamlines critical business processes for anti-money-laundering regulated B2B companies.

Founded in Copenhagen and operating throughout Europe, Penneo is fast becoming the go-to platform for companies looking to save time on administrative tasks while ensuring complete regulatory compliance and peace of mind for themselves and their clients.

Following our listing on Nasdaq Copenhagen Main Market in April 2022, we are now more than ever in a position to execute our European expansion strategy and scale our operations to maximize value to our existing and future customers.

Who are we looking for?
At Penneo, we are always looking to forge new long-term relationships with people who resonate with our culture and values and are passionate about getting Penneo to the next level.

Do you want to be part of it?
We are now hiring a Senior DevOps Engineer who will be responsible for building and supporting a shared platform that is used by multiple teams and products, focusing on performance, availability, security, scalability, and automation. We’re building this platform so that other engineers can focus their efforts on building the products.

You will report to our Platform Engineering Manager and have our awesome Engineering Teams as your closest collaborators.

This is a full-time position at our Penneo HQ in Copenhagen, Denmark.

About the team
Previously called “Infrastructure Team”, The Platform Team was rebranded to better fit our ambitions to build a platform that can be used across products to enable our engineers to be more independent.

To fit the growth of our Engineering department, we want to scale the Platform team to meet the demands of the other product teams. The good news is that joining a growing team will give you the opportunity to shape how this team evolves, which best practices to follow, and establish ways of working. The Platform team is growing and is currently formed by a Platform Engineering Manager and a Senior Platform Engineer. The Engineering team consists of 20+ people, and zooming out, Penneo as a whole, recently became a 110+ people company

What would be your responsibilities?
A big part of your role will be developing, deploying, and maintaining DevOps tooling and Infrastructure to make the software delivery system run smoothly. This also involves building reusable components, creating new and maintaining existing environments.

You will be expected to design, plan and implement, taking into account security, reliability and performance into account, as most of our services are used around the clock.

You will also be expected to:

• Design well-architected solutions, based on proven design patterns or paradigms.
• Lead initiatives to improve any aspect of the Platform like reliability, performance, security, costs, etc.
• Approach challenges in a creative and innovative manner, always trying to find the best solution for each requirement.
• Collaborate closely with others, specially but not limited to product teams, developers, and senior management.
• Keep up to speed with emerging technologies, learn new skills (how to make use of them too!), and follow multiple work streams in parallel.
• Build and evolve our incident management processes, to ensure that we know how to react if something stops working.

What makes you a great match?
Even though we appreciate your experience with other technologies and tools, we are currently specifically looking for someone that has experience with the following:

• Cloud Providers: Amazon Web Services (at least IAM, EC2, RDS, Route53, EBS, S3; extra points if you have worked with EFS, CloudHSM, MSK, CloudFront, ACM, and more).
• Infrastructure as Code: Ansible, Terraform, and CloudFormation (extra points if you have experience with TFSec, CheckOV, OpenPolicyAgent).
• CI/CD Platforms: GitHub Actions (TravisCI is a plus).
• Kubernetes: Service Meshes (Istio preferred), CNIs, Runtime Security, CRDs, Operators, Sidecars, etc.
• Logging: Loki, ElasticSearch
• Metrics: Prometheus and CloudWatch (experience with Thanos is a plus)
• Tracing: Jaeger, OpenTelemetry (experience with Grafana Tempo is a plus)
• Cloud Networking: Experience with L3/L4 Firewalls, Routing, and IPSec VPNs (BGP, AWS Transit Gateway, and DirectConnect are a plus). Knowledge of Juniper Routing/Switching are nice to have.
• Software Engineering: Experience with Python 3, Go, Node.js, Java, Kotlin and its ecosystems are nice to have.
• PKI: Experience with OpenSSL, certificate lifecycle are a plus.

Every engineer has a unique mix of skills and experience, we will definitely take into consideration any relevant experience outside the ones mentioned above.
