If you want to work with modern technologies in projects that make a difference then read on, we are now looking for a cloud engineer to join our growing team.

Depending on your experience and wishes, you will work closely with our partners AWS, Azure or Google Cloud Platform. You will learn how to use cloud technologies in various customer projects.

Our cloud team is responsible for the maintenance and operations of the IT-systems and platforms for our customers. In most cases the software and systems running on the platforms are developed by us and we can therefore take full responsibility for the quality and service level. In this strategic role, you will influence how we build our cloud business and team in Estonia.

We are forerunners in using the most modern cloud infrastructure and automation tools. We see that fully automated testing, installation, integration and maintenance is the best way to guarantee quality and service for our customers. We build, monitor and operate systems that run 24/7 without the need of us working all day round.


Where your expertise is needed:

- At least 2 years of hands-on system administration experience – both in building and designing infrastructure components

- Good troubleshooting skills, an analytical mindset with good communication skills; you consider yourself a self-learner and team-player
- Good skills either in Linux or Microsoft server platforms
- You have previously worked with VMware infrastructure technologies
- Language skills: English is a must, Estonian and/or Finnish are a big plus

It is an advantage if you:
- Have knowledge of cloud technologies
- Skills in Terraform and Ansible
- Experience with scripting (Python, Shell, Powershell etc)
- Knowledge or experience with Kubernetes clusters and Docker containers

We will offer you in turn:
- Challenging, impactful projects to work with

- Time that is allocated specifically for your professional development through trainings

- Work environment that breathes freedom as well as responsibility and where you can fulfil your true potential
- We want to make sure you have a good work-life balance. That's what our employees see as one of Solita's greatest assets
