Infrastructure Engineer (Next-Gen Virtualization & Automation)

İstanbul, TR • Technology / System & Infrastructure • Full-Time

🚀 Who we are & What we believe?

We believe the internet is the great equalizer and enabler. It provides essentially unlimited access to knowledge, education, entertainment, services and commerce. And it’s an incredible tool to publish, create, share and communicate.

We think everyone deserves first-rate internet, and we have gone about creating an internet service that we ourselves want to use.

We believe in the power of curiosity, creativity and imagination. We use technology to realize our creations, to simplify and to enable. In addition, we add in hard work, sheer sweat and will power where that is not quite enough. If the idea is right, “that can’t be done”, or “that’s not how things are done” will not stop us.

Offering the best customer experience is dear to our hearts. Our industry is not very good at this, and we have lots of room to improve. We want to be the best and are looking for a leader that shares our passion.

If that’s you, we’d love to meet and get to know you. Let’s talk about how we can work together to make it happen!
