In Short: You will treat infrastructure as software, building the automated platforms and resilient systems that allow Klar to scale 100x without breaking our "Foundation of Trust."

✅ About Klar

We are on a mission to banish spreadsheets from eCommerce and build the "Data Operating System" for growing brands. To understand who we are, where we come from, and why our guiding principle is "Do Work You Are Proud Of," please read our full intro: 👉 About Klar

🤝 About The Position

At Klar, we don't view Operations as a support function; we view it as a product engineering discipline. You will be a key guardian of our "Foundation of Trust," ensuring reliability, security, and speed are baked into the platform.

You won't just manage servers; you will build the "paved road" for our product teams. Your goal is to deliver "Sustainable Speed"—removing friction from the development lifecycle through automation so that shipping code is boring, safe, and fast. You will apply a broad engineering mindset to solve complex problems across the entire lifecycle of the application.

Your Responsibilities:

• Build Platforms, Not Just Scripts: You design and implement the foundational libraries and infrastructure abstractions that enable other teams to ship faster and safer.

• Architect for the Future: You act as a "Scalability Advocate," ensuring that the systems we build today can handle 10x or 100x the load tomorrow without needing a rewrite.

• Treat Infrastructure as Code: You reject manual procedures. You automate everything using Terraform and Kubernetes operators, ensuring our environment is reproducible and stable.

• Drive Systemic Reliability: You "own the incident" when things break, but more importantly, you drive systemic changes (like better observability or new CI/CD patterns) to prevent entire classes of failure.

• Collaborate on Architecture: You work alongside product developers from day one, helping them architect cloud-native applications that are secure and observable by default.

💪 About You

• The Mindset: You are a "Broad Generalist" with a software mindset. You embrace "Ownership & Trust," meaning you don't just find problems; you fix them, document them, and ensure they stay fixed.

• Experience: You have a strong background in software engineering but chose to apply those skills to infrastructure. You prefer writing a tool in Go or Python to automate a task rather than writing a runbook for a manual process.

• Hard Skills:

  • Kubernetes Internals: Expert-level knowledge of K8s, operators, and the ecosystem (Helm, Kustomize).

  • IaC: Extensive experience with Terraform or similar tools.

  • CI/CD: You know your way around GitHub Actions and GitOps principles (we use Flux CD ).

  • Coding: Proficiency in Go, Python, or Rust.

  • Linux: Strong understanding of Linux internals (namespaces, cgroups, systemd).

• Soft Skills: You are a "Collaborative Architect." You enjoy teaching others and "setting them up for success" by making your reasoning visible and your systems easy to use.
