About the role

    We are looking for a Senior Cloud Engineer to design, build, and scale XTB’s hybrid and multi-cloud infrastructure, supporting systems for millions of clients worldwide. In this role, you will drive infrastructure automation and cloud engineering best practices, ensure platform resilience, and shape our highly available environments across multiple cloud providers, ensuring our systems remain robust, secure, and scalable.

Responsibilities

  • Design, implement, and maintain large-scale, highly available multi-cloud and hybrid infrastructure.
  • Deploy and operate containerized workloads using managed Kubernetes services (e.g., AKS, EKS, GKE).
  • Build, maintain, and improve Infrastructure as Code (IaC) using Terraform.
  • Design and implement robust CI/CD pipelines using GitLab CI/CD, incorporating GitOps principles.
  • Implement and manage core cloud services, including global content delivery, DNS, and object storage (e.g., CloudFront, Route 53, S3).
  • Ensure full operational visibility across cloud infrastructure by setting up metrics, dashboards, and alerts using tools such as Grafana and Prometheus.
  • Implement and manage Identity & Access Management (IAM) policies, Role-Based Access Control (RBAC), and least-privilege access across cloud environments.
  • Define and enforce Cloud Governance, Landing Zone structures, and Policy-as-Code standards (e.g., Azure Policies, AWS SCPs, tagging strategies).
  • Manage hybrid network connectivity and troubleshoot complex networking issues across distributed cloud and on-premises environments.
  • Collaborate with Security, SRE, and Platform teams to define and drive cloud best practices for observability, compliance, and operational reliability.
  • Support FinOps initiatives to optimize cloud environments for cost efficiency, scalability, and performance.

Requirements

  • 5+ years of hands-on experience in cloud engineering, DevOps, or infrastructure with large-scale environments.
  • Proven practical experience with highly available cloud environments in a multi-cloud setup (strong hands-on knowledge of at least two providers: AWS, Azure, GCP).
  • Strong understanding of DevOps, Platform Engineering, and GitOps principles.
  • Solid hands-on experience with managed Kubernetes orchestration (e.g., AKS, EKS, GKE).
  • Experience working in regulated industries (e.g., FinTech, banking) with strong compliance, security, auditability, and governance requirements.
  • Strong scripting or programming skills in Python, Bash, or similar languages.
  • Proficiency in creating and maintaining infrastructure using Terraform.
  • Strong experience designing and implementing CI/CD pipelines, preferably using GitLab CI/CD.
  • Practical experience configuring metrics, dashboards, and alerts using tools like Grafana and Prometheus.
  • Hands-on experience with Identity & Access Management (IAM), RBAC models, and implementing least-privilege security.
  • Solid understanding of hybrid networking concepts (e.g., BGP, VPN, Direct Connect / ExpressRoute, hybrid DNS resolution) and network troubleshooting.
  • Ability to work independently, take ownership of technical delivery, and support production-grade environments.

Nice to have

  • Experience with IaC PR-workflow automation and orchestration tools (e.g., Atlantis, Terragrunt).
  • Experience with GitOps delivery tools (e.g., Argo CD, Flux).
  • Experience with the Wiz security platform or similar cloud security posture management (CSPM) tools.
  • Experience with configuration management tools like Ansible.
  • Practical knowledge of FinOps practices and cloud cost optimization strategies.
  • Official certifications from AWS, Azure, GCP, or CNCF (e.g., CKA, CKAD).

What we offer

  • Real influence on the development of the company and the product.
  • Work in an experienced team that is happy to share its knowledge.
  • A clear vision of development thanks to regular feedback and clear career paths.
  • Regular team-building meetings.

Benefits

  • A training budget for courses and conferences that interest you.
  • An extra day off on your birthday.
  • An extra day off for parents.
  • Equipment tailored to your needs.
  • Private medical care and group insurance.
  • Access to an e-learning platform for learning English and a benefits platform.
  • Access to a wellbeing platform and the opportunity to take advantage of workshops and private therapy sessions.
  • Remote work, from the office in Warsaw or from a coworking space in your city.

Prepare your application

Use the description above to assess your fit for XTB. This checklist is guidance from Resumize, rather than additional requirements from the employer. Imported listings can be shortened or change after collection, so confirm the complete description and current availability before sending an application.

Match requirements to evidence

Identify the responsibilities and skills the employer explicitly names. For each important requirement, choose one example from your work, education, training, or projects. Explain what you did, how you did it, and what changed as a result. Include a measurable outcome when you can support it. If you lack a requirement, describe related experience accurately instead of adding an unfamiliar skill to your resume.

Put the most relevant examples near the top of your resume. Keep job titles, dates, qualifications, and contact details consistent across your application materials. Use the employer’s terminology when it describes your experience accurately; a copied list of keywords does not explain your contribution. A short, specific bullet is easier to review than a paragraph that mixes several unrelated duties.

Check the working arrangement

Confirm the location, schedule, employment type, and any eligibility requirements on the employer’s site. A remote label does not establish worldwide eligibility or flexible hours. If compensation, benefits, equipment, travel, or contract duration are missing from this listing, write down your questions for the recruiter. Do not assume details from another opening at the same company apply to this role.

Review before submitting

Follow the employer’s requested file format and application instructions. Open your exported resume and check that its text is selectable, its sections read in order, and its links work. Proofread names, dates, and contact information. Share confidential work samples only when you have permission, and use an anonymized example when necessary.

Submit through a trusted employer or recruiting destination. If the original listing has disappeared, search the employer’s careers page for the title rather than assuming the vacancy remains open. Save the application date, job reference, and the version of your resume you sent. Those details help you prepare for a later conversation and avoid submitting conflicting information through several job boards.

Review your resume for writing and readability feedback, or browse other openings if this opportunity is unavailable.
