About the Opportunity

We are seeking a Site Reliability Engineer to join the Observability group inside our Platform Engineering domain. Platform Engineering’s goal is to provide easy-to-use, self-service platforms to enable other segments to easily build, deploy, and monitor their business applications. Observability’s role in that part of the company is to provide our users with end-to-end observability that’s easy to use.

As one of the first banks completely hosted in the cloud, our security, resilience, and productivity standards require a motivated and well-balanced team. We are using a modern technology stack to match our principles when it comes to providing the framework for our development team, the company, and our customers.

Responsibilities

In this role, you will:

Build the tools for monitoring and measuring infrastructure, microservices, and sometimes totally unique workloads.
Put the developer experience at the front of your mind and implementations.
Contribute deeply to understanding and preventing incidents through tooling, automation, and people-centered processes.
Use automation to speed up repetitive tasks and contribute to the security and compliance of the tech stack that you run and support.

Requirements

You need to be successful if you:

Have an understanding of the basic building blocks of observability: metrics, logs, and traces.
Have experience using the right tools to extract data (e.g., Prometheus, StatsD, OpenTelemetry libraries), transform data (e.g., Vector, Beats, FluentBit), and load data (e.g., OpenSearch, Grafana, Datadog, etc.) so that your fellow engineers can make sense of it.
Have solid skills with at least one glue language like GoLang or Python.
Can build in a cloud-only environment with infrastructure as code tools like Terraform and AWS CDK.
Have a brain that runs on Linux.

We Offer

Accelerate your career growth by joining one of Europe’s most talked-about disruptors.
Employee benefits that range from a competitive personal development budget, work-from-home budget, discounts on fitness & wellness memberships, language apps, and public transportation.
Come together with your team in the office for a dedicated day of teamwork each week, plus another day of your choice, and enjoy the flexibility of remote work the rest of the time. Some roles may require additional in-office presence.
As an N26 employee, you will have access to a Premium subscription on your personal N26 bank account, as well as subscriptions for friends and family members.
Additional day of annual leave for each year of service.
A high degree of autonomy and access to cutting-edge technologies - all while working with a friendly team of peers of diverse nationalities, life experiences, and backgrounds.
A relocation package with visa support for those who need it.
