About Buynomics:
Buynomics is the next-generation SaaS company in pricing and product optimization. It employs large-scale simulation technologies to digitize customers and predict their purchase behavior - in any environment. Our clients use Buynomics to make data-driven decisions about their current and new products, overall portfolio structure, pricing, promotions, trade terms, and more, 100x faster and more precisely than every other solution.
Our mission is to enable transparent, customer-centric commercial decisions. We’re building the operating system for commercial strategy, providing companies with a single source of truth for all market-facing questions related to pricing, products, and promotions.
About the role:
Buynomics is building a modular, service-oriented platform to power advanced commercial decision-making for enterprise customers.
As we expand from multi-tenant SaaS into enterprise single-tenant deployments, we are looking for a Lead Platform Engineer to design and build our multi-cloud Kubernetes foundation.
This role focuses on:
- Secure single-tenant deployments in customer-controlled environments (Azure-first)
- Kubernetes-based service architecture across clouds
- Scalable infrastructure for distributed compute and ML workloads
- Infrastructure automation, security, and operational excellence
You will operate as a senior technical leader, defining the deployment architecture that enables our next-generation platform to run reliably across AWS, Azure, and GCP.
Why this role:
- Greenfield architecture: You are not inheriting legacy — you are designing the deployment platform from scratch
- Enterprise impact: Your work deploys into Fortune 500 customer environments across industries
- Real autonomy: You make architectural decisions, choose tooling, and own the platform roadmap
- AI-native engineering culture: We are all-in on AI-assisted development — you will work alongside a team that ships with AI daily
- Growth path: As enterprise deployments scale, this role grows into leading a dedicated platform team
What you'll do:
- Design and implement cloud-agnostic, single-tenant deployment architecture (Azure-first, with AWS and GCP support)
- Build and maintain reusable Infrastructure-as-Code modules (Terraform)
- Define and standardize the Kubernetes platform, including workload isolation, auto-scaling, and security policies
- Implement GitOps-based CI/CD and automated environment provisioning
- Enable scalable execution of compute-heavy workloads (e.g. async job queues, ML training pipelines)
- Design secure networking patterns (private endpoints, VNet/VPC design, DNS, IAM/RBAC, zero-trust principles)
- Establish observability standards (structured logging, metrics, distributed tracing, alerting)
- Own cost governance across customer environments: cost attribution, right-sizing, and spend optimization
- Collaborate with engineering teams to define clean service deployment contracts
- Define platform standards, architectural decision records, and operational runbooks
- Ensure platform compliance with SOC 2, ISO 27001, and GDPR through automated policy-as-code guardrails
- Champion AI-assisted infrastructure workflows — we use AI coding tools across engineering and expect platform tooling to follow suit
What you'll need:
- 6+ years of experience in platform engineering, infrastructure, or DevOps/SRE roles
- Strong production experience in Azure (AKS, Azure AD, Managed Identity, Private Networking)
- Solid experience with at least one additional cloud provider (AWS preferred; GCP a plus)
- Hands-on production experience operating Kubernetes at scale (cluster lifecycle, upgrades, multi-tenancy)
- Deep expertise in Infrastructure-as-Code (Terraform), including module design, state management, and CI integration
- Strong knowledge of cloud networking (VPC/VNet, DNS, private routing, firewall configurations)
- Experience designing CI/CD and GitOps workflows
- Experience operating distributed or high-concurrency workloads
- Understanding of compliance frameworks (SOC 2, ISO 27001, GDPR) and ability to implement compliant infrastructure patterns
- Strong system design skills and ability to operate at Staff-level technical depth
- Ability to navigate ambiguity and move initiatives forward independently
Nice-to-Haves:
- Experience deploying software into customer-controlled enterprise cloud environments (single-tenant / BYOC models)
- MLOps experience (model lifecycle, training pipelines, experiment tracking with MLflow, artifact versioning)
- Databricks integration experience (workspace provisioning, Unity Catalog, job orchestration)
- GPU workload optimization and scheduling
- Experience building Internal Developer Platforms using tools like Backstage, Crossplane, or Humanitec
- Service mesh technologies (Istio, Linkerd) and zero-trust networking patterns
- Policy-as-code tooling (OPA/Gatekeeper, Kyverno)
- FinOps practices and multi-environment cost governance
What we offer:
- A vibrant, international, and diverse work environment.
- Flexible work options: remote within the EU with occasional visits to our Cologne HQ or Barcelona office or a hybrid setup in one of these locations.
- A dedicated learning budget to support your professional growth and development.
- Local language lessons (Germany and Spain)
- Health and fitness benefits (Germany and Spain)
- Personal and professional growth opportunities
- Regular company events
To ensure a smooth and efficient process and that no applications are overlooked, please apply directly to the role. While we'd love to respond to everyone who reaches out, applying ensures that your application is properly tracked and considered.
Buynomics is proud to be an equal-opportunity employer.
