About Gigs At Gigs, we're building the operating system for mobile services—a platform that lets tech companies embed global connectivity into their products effortlessly.

Just as Stripe lets any business add a payment button in seconds, Gigs empowers platforms to weave in connectivity—bridging the traditional world of telecom with modern tech. From fintechs launching mobile services to HR platforms offering work phone plans, we automate provisioning and remove telecom complexity.

Our team of around 100 people across the US and Europe, backed by nearly $100 million in funding from Ribbit Capital, Google, and Y Combinator. As one of the fastest-growing tech companies, bringing together early-stage engineers, product builders, and business athletes from companies like Stripe, Airbnb, and Shopify. We’re tackling deep technical and regulatory challenges to make connectivity truly seamless.

If you’re driven by curiosity, creativity, and the chance to shape the future of telecom, we’d love to hear from you.

The Role As a Senior Platform Engineer at Gigs, you'll work at the foundation of everything we build. You'll design, build, and operate the infrastructure and developer tooling that powers our connectivity and payments platform — enabling product teams to ship faster, more reliably, and at scale.

Our Foundation team owns the systems that every engineer at Gigs depends on: CI/CD pipelines, cloud infrastructure, observability, deployment tooling, and the shared platform services that keep our product running. You'll take ownership of complex infrastructure challenges end-to-end and drive them to production with a high bar for reliability and developer experience.

This is a role for someone who cares deeply about the craft of platform engineering — who gets energy from making other engineers more productive, who thinks in systems, and who isn't satisfied until the solution is both robust and elegant. You'll be joining a small, high-impact team where your work will directly shape how Gigs scales over the next few years.

What You Will Do

• Own and improve Gigs' cloud infrastructure, ensuring our platform is reliable, scalable, and cost-efficient as we grow.
• Design and build internal developer tooling and platform services that accelerate how product teams ship — from CI/CD pipelines to deployment workflows to local development environments.
• Drive improvements to our observability stack, making it easy for every engineer to understand system behavior, debug issues, and respond to incidents with confidence.

What We Are Looking For

• You have 5+ years of professional software engineering experience, with meaningful time spent on infrastructure, platform, or DevOps/SRE work in a production environment.
• You have hands-on experience with cloud platforms (GCP preferred) and infrastructure-as-code tools like Terraform. You understand networking, compute, and storage at a level that lets you make good trade-offs.

Bonus Points If

• You have experience with our stack: GCP (cloud run), Docker, Terraform, Ruby on Rails, Go, PostgreSQL, Kafka, PubSub.
• You have worked in fintech, payments, telecom, or other regulated industries where reliability and compliance matter.
• You have experience building developer-facing platforms or internal tooling at a high-growth startup (Series B–D).
• You have contributed to open-source infrastructure tooling or have a track record of improving developer productivity at scale.
• You use AI tooling as part of your engineering workflow and have developed a practical sense for where it adds value and where it doesn't — for example, using it for infrastructure scaffolding, debugging, exploring unfamiliar APIs, or drafting documentation, while knowing when to rely on your own judgment.

Before You Apply...

The truth is, what we're building isn't easy. We expect a lot, and operate with urgency and ownership. This won’t be the right place for everyone, and that’s okay.

This role probably isn't a fit if:

• You need a lot of structure, or layers of process to do your best work
• You prefer to specialize narrowly and wait for direction rather than taking initiative
• You’re uncomfortable making decisions with imperfect information or wearing multiple hats
• You’re looking for a “big company” setup — we’re still building many things for the first time

But if you’re excited by the idea of building from zero, working with passion, and leaving your mark on something that matters — we’d love to meet you.

Work at Gigs

At Gigs, we value in-person collaboration. We believe the best ideas, decisions, and relationships are built when teams spend meaningful time together, and our culture is designed around that belief. We support flexibility where it makes sense. Some focused work can be done remotely, and not every role or week looks the same. You should expect regular time in one of our hubs , as well as occasional travel for team workshops, customer meetings, and Gigs Republic, our bi-annual company off-site . Our offices are designed to feel like home-inspired workspaces, with plants, thoughtful tools, and small, tight-knit teams that make collaboration feel natural, energizing, and effective.

What We Offer

At Gigs, we believe in rewarding excellence. We offer competitive compensation and stock options because we see you as a true partner in our growth. We also provide stipends for your home office or work setup, a budget for learning and development to fuel your career, and of course, a free phone and international data plan
