About The Role

The Amsterdam Infrastructure team is part of Uber's global Platform Engineering organization and aims to provide the highest quality, reliable, scalable, and secure compute/data platforms to Uber employees globally, backed by a strong commitment to customer service.

We have a sophisticated infrastructure spanning both on-premise data centers and cloud, supporting a diverse variety of workloads, each different in its characteristics and requirements that support our internal corporate use cases and teams.

Our Amsterdam-based Infrastructure team will be responsible for designing, developing, and managing cloud infrastructure to automate the provisioning, configuration, and deployment of cloud resources across various cloud platforms to ensure scalability, reliability, and security within the infrastructure environment.

Our Amsterdam team is growing fast! If you are interested in solving infrastructure engineering challenges at a massive scale, we would love to hear from you.
