We provide casino, sports betting, platform and payments, and affiliate management to 300 customers worldwide.\nBut that's not all! We're not just about numbers, we're about people. With a team of over 1400 passionate individuals spread across twelve countries in Europe and Asia, we're all united by our love for innovation and teamwork.\nJoin us on this exciting journey as we continue to redefine the iGaming landscape, one groundbreaking solution at a time.\nWe are looking for Platform Technical Leader to join our team in Bucharest!\nAbout the job:\nThe Platform Technical Leader (EM3 & PaaS) will define and drive the architecture and technical operating model for EveryMatrix’s next-generation Platform as a Service. The role will enable EM3 and the wider EM2030 transformation through secure, reliable, automated, and self-service platform capabilities that can operate across datacentres and cloud environments at fleet scale.\nThe role reports to the Platform Engineering Leader and remains within the existing Platform Engineering organization. It will initially have no separate team or direct reports. Delivery will be achieved through technical leadership and dedicated contributors allocated from the existing Platform Engineering streams and specialist teams on a project basis. The role will help shape the future technology-oriented Platform Engineering model and the development of SRE and DevSecOps capabilities without creating a parallel organization.\nThe successful candidate will initially lead the EM3 and PaaS technical direction without a separate team or direct reporting line. Results will be delivered through architecture ownership, technical leadership, organizational influence, and dedicated capacity allocated from existing teams. The candidate must be able to lead engineers and technical outcomes at scale while people management, capacity ownership, and operational accountability remain with the existing Platform Engineering leadership structure.\nResponsibilities:\nDefine the EM3 and PaaS target architecture, platform principles, roadmap, and reference patterns.\n\nDesign the platform control plane, management APIs, desired-state model, and fleet-wide lifecycle-management approach.\n\nDefine automated provisioning, configuration, upgrades, patching, recovery, rollback, version compliance, and decommissioning across infrastructure, Kubernetes, and platform services.\n\nDesign deployment patterns for single-tenant and smaller multi-tenant environments across datacentres and public cloud.\n\nEstablish platform products, self-service interfaces, service catalogue standards, golden paths, and reusable blueprints.\n\nDefine reliability standards, service ownership, production readiness, SLI/SLO practices, observability, resilience testing, and the future SRE operating model.\n\nEmbed security by default through DevSecOps practices, policy as code, secrets and identity controls, supply-chain security, compliance automation, and automated evidence.\n\nLead cross-team architectural decisions and align Platform Engineering, Infrastructure, DBA, Networking, Security, Architecture, and Product Engineering.\n\nDefine technical acceptance criteria and decision gates for proof of concept, production readiness, lifecycle readiness, security readiness, and operational readiness.\n\nWork with the Platform Engineering Leader on capacity planning, project allocation, skills development, targeted hiring, and the progressive transition to technology-oriented platform domains.\n\nMentor senior engineers and help develop future Platform Engineering, SRE, and DevSecOps leaders.\n\nDrive outcomes that allow platform scale to grow without proportional growth in manual operational effort.\n\nOwn our private cloud infrastructure as a product, setting the technical direction and the roadmap for how it evolves;\n\nDefine and publish a service catalogue with clear ownership and clear interfaces, so that provisioning compute, storage, environments and infrastructure is a self-service call for our development teams;\n\nDeliver secure CI/CD as a service, with pipelines, secrets management, access control and compliance controls built into the platform by default rather than added afterwards;\n\nSet, measure and report on SLAs, capacity plans and cost transparency for every service the chapter provides;\n\nEstablish the engineering standards of the chapter, including infrastructure as code, peer review, automated testing and observability, and hold the team to them;\n\nEmbed AI-assisted engineering in how the chapter works day to day, and measure the effect it has on delivery speed and quality;\n\nPartner with development, architecture and security so that platform capabilities match what our product teams need;\n\nTake accountability for the reliability of the platform, including on-call arrangements, incident response, and post-incident learning.\n\nRequirements:\nProven experience designing, building, or transforming a large-scale internal platform or Platform as a Service capability.\n\nExperience with Kubernetes and infrastructure lifecycle management across multiple clusters, locations, or tenants.\n\nStrong knowledge of Kubernetes, containers, networking, identity, secrets, storage, distributed data services, and observability.\n\nExperience with Infrastructure as Code, GitOps, declarative configuration, reconciliation, platform APIs, and policy-driven automation.\n\nExperience delivering automated upgrades, patching, rollback, recovery, and version management.\n\nExperience defining platform products, self-service services, service ownership, and operating models.\n\nStrong understanding of SRE practices and the design of reliable, observable, production-ready services.\n\nStrong understanding of DevSecOps, software supply-chain security, platform security, and automated compliance controls.\n\nExperience leading complex technical change across multiple teams without direct organizational authority.\n\nExcellent communication and stakeholder-management skills.\n\nNice to have:\nExperience establishing Platform Engineering, SRE, or DevSecOps capabilities.\n\nExperience with hybrid, on-premises, private-cloud, and public-cloud platforms.\n\nExperience with single-tenant and multi-tenant deployment models.\n\nExperience with Kubernetes fleet management, progressive delivery, upgrade rings, and low-downtime change.\n\nExperience with PostgreSQL, ClickHouse, Kafka, Redis, Elasticsearch, or similar distributed services.\n\nExperience in regulated, audited, or high-availability environments.\n\nHere's what we offer:\nStart with 22 days of annual leave, with 2 additional days added each year, up to 32 days by your fifth year with us.\n\nHybrid work schedule is available after the first three months of employment, in line with the company policy.\n\nBenefit from two Free Fridays each year, limited to one per quarter.\n\n3 sick leave days per year, no doctor's note required.\n\nDaily catered lunch or monthly lunch allowance.\n\nPrivate Medical Subscription.\n\nAccess online learning platforms like Udemy for Business and a budget for external training.\n\nAccess to an Employee Assistance Program through TELUS Health.\n\nOur office perks include parking, on-site massages, and frequent team-building activities in various locations. And did we mention our amazing office space complete with its own pool and gym?\nAt EveryMatrix, we're committed to creating a supportive and inclusive workplace where you can thrive both personally and professionally.
