Title : Platform Engineer Department : Engineering Location : Espoo, Finland Reports to : Infrastructure Engineering Lead   Employment type : Permanent Working style : Hybrid Employment is subject to applicable security screening (incl. SUPO) The Mission of the Platform Engineer Own the foundations that all services rely on. Build and operate a secure, scalable Kubernetes platform with automated infrastructure, observability, and lifecycle management. Enable product teams to ship faster by reducing platform friction and strengthening engineering reliability. Who We Are ICEYE delivers space-based intelligence, surveillance, and reconnaissance (ISR) capabilities to governments and allied nations. This includes sovereign and turnkey ISR missions leveraging ICEYE’s world-leading synthetic aperture radar (SAR) satellite technology, as well as access to data from the world’s largest SAR satellite constellation. These capabilities enable partners to detect and respond to critical changes anywhere on Earth with unprecedented speed and accuracy – day or night and in any weather, supported by ultra high-resolution imagery and high-frequency revisits. As a trusted partner for defense, intelligence, security, and maritime domain awareness, ICEYE’s near real-time data creates a tactical advantage for mission-critical operations. Designed for dual use, the platform also serves civil protection and commercial users for natural-catastrophe intelligence, insurance, maritime monitoring (including oil-spill detection), and finance, contributing to global security and community resilience. ICEYE operates internationally with offices in Finland, Poland, Spain, Japan, the UAE, Greece, and the US. The company has more than 900 employees, inspired by the shared vision of improving life on Earth by becoming the global source of truth in Earth Observation. Expected Outcomes A scalable and secure platform foundation is in place and continuously improved , with standardized Kubernetes building blocks (Istio, ingress, secrets management) enabling reliable and consistent service delivery. Infrastructure provisioning is fast, repeatable, and auditable , through reusable Terraform modules supporting both AWS (VPC, IAM, KMS, compute, storage) and on-prem environments (vSphere/VxRail). System health and reliability are transparent and actionable , with well-defined SLOs/SLIs, unified metrics, logs, and traces, and alerting that minimizes noise while surfacing real issues early. Product teams ship faster with fewer platform-related blockers , supported by clear architectural guidance, hands-on enablement, and improved engineering maturity in Kubernetes, networking, identity, and observability. Platform operations are predictable and low-touch , with automated cluster lifecycle management (bootstrap, upgrades, scaling) that reduces manual effort, risk, and operational toil. Role-specific Competences 5+ years in DevOps/SRE/Platform roles operating production services. Deep hands-on with Kubernetes (install/upgrade, control plane, CNI, ingress, storage) and Linux systems. Understanding of AWS fundamentals (networking, IAM, compute, storage). Experience with IaC tools like Terraform and comfort working with platform APIs/CLIs. Practical observability experience: SLO design, metrics/logs/traces instrumentation, dashboarding, alert strategy, and capacity/perf analysis. Proficiency in at least one backend language ​​(for example Python or Go) for automation/tooling. Nice to have Experience with Rancher, Istio, External Secrets/Vault, and supply-chain hardening (SBOM). Operating clusters in restricted or air-gapped environments. FusionAuth/SSO integration and policy-as-code. Background in regulated or mission-critical domains. Experience bridging hybrid environments (AWS + vSphere/VxRail). How we work Platform as a product: clear interfaces with our internal customers. Automate the boring stuff: replace repetitive steps with code and templates. Secure by default: controls are built-in, not bolted-on. Blameless learning: we iterate based on data and outcomes. Key Competences In addition to the requirements above, we evaluate candidates on these key qualities throughout the hiring process: Intellectual Firepower : Rapidly comprehends, structures and synthesizes complex information, draws accurate conclusions, and communicates them with clarity.
