About the Role and Our Work Culture
Hello I’m Colin, Head of EMEA Engineering. With years of experience leading engineering teams in startups, I understand the vital role of infrastructure engineers. I’ve built initial infrastructures from the ground up and appreciate the rigor and discipline they bring to the table.
Our infrastructure is currently in a stable state, but as Ashby grows rapidly, we face new challenges that put pressure on it. We are committed to providing our customers with powerful hiring software, which often requires new infrastructure components.
Having managed complex infrastructures in the past, I value code-as-infrastructure. As a Platform Engineer at Ashby, you will tackle scaling challenges, enhance our platform's capabilities, and consider how our team interacts with infrastructure. Our engineers take ownership of their projects from inception to deployment, operating with minimal oversight. We prioritize common sense over excessive roadblocks while also being mindful of our responsibility to manage personal and confidential data. As we expand, we must adapt our internal operations to meet the needs of our growing customer base.
