Sr. Platform Engineer | Cloud Infrastructure
Confirmed on the employer's own hiring board on Oct 14, 2026. First seen by Alion on Oct 14, 2026. TV4 scores B on the Alion truth index.
Sr. Platform Engineer | Cloud Infrastructure
At TV4, our engineers build and operate the technology behind TV4 Play and MTV Katsomo, used by millions of people every week.
Within Engineering Platform, we build the shared cloud infrastructure and platform capabilities used by engineering teams across TV4. We are now looking for a Sr. Platform Engineer to help develop our Internal Developer Platform.
Before you apply
To be considered, you need to already have the right to work and reside in Sweden and be able to work office-first from Stockholm. We are not able to offer relocation or visa sponsorship for this role.
What we are building
Our engineering teams own the software they build, from development through production. Engineering Platform provides the shared foundation that supports them.
Our platform is built around AWS, Kubernetes and infrastructure as code. We are moving more shared infrastructure capabilities into the platform, with clearer abstractions and self-service for engineering teams.
We want to provide clear interfaces and sensible defaults without taking ownership away from the teams running the software.
Our users are engineers, and the platform needs to work well for them.
What you will do
You will work in a small team responsible for our cloud platform and Internal Developer Platform.
You will:
Build and evolve shared cloud infrastructure and platform capabilities
Develop self-service capabilities for engineering teams
Improve how services are provisioned, deployed and operated
Turn recurring infrastructure needs into shared platform capabilities that teams can use themselves
Work with teams across TV4 to understand where the platform creates friction or unnecessary work
Improve reliability, observability, security and operational practices across the platform
Take responsibility for the capabilities you build in production
Contribute to technical direction and platform architecture
This is a hands-on engineering role. You will work close to both the underlying infrastructure and the engineers using it.
About you
You are an experienced platform or infrastructure engineer who has built and operated production environments at scale.
You understand cloud infrastructure deeply enough to know where abstraction helps and where it gets in the way. You are comfortable working below the abstraction when needed, but also interested in creating platforms that make good engineering practices easier for other teams.
We are looking for:
Strong experience with modern cloud infrastructure
Experience with Kubernetes and containerised production environments
Infrastructure as code and automated provisioning
Experience designing or building internal platforms, developer platforms or self-service infrastructure
Strong understanding of reliability, observability, networking and security
Experience operating systems in production and handling incidents
Good software engineering fundamentals and the ability to build platform tooling and services
The ability to make technical trade-offs across infrastructure, developer experience and operational complexity
Clear communication and experience working across engineering teams
You don’t have to have experience with all of these things to be a good fit for the role, but they are things you will encounter at TV4. Experience from a specific cloud provider or toolset is less important than understanding the underlying problems.
Platform as a product
Our users are engineers across TV4. We work closely with them to understand recurring problems, decide what belongs in the platform and build capabilities that work across teams.
This requires strong infrastructure knowledge as well as an interest in developer experience and product thinking.
Engineering Platform
Engineering Platform consists of two closely related parts:
Cloud Infrastructure / Internal Developer Platform builds the cloud platform and shared capabilities our teams use to build, deploy and operate software, with an increasing focus on self-service and platform abstractions.
Agent Platform focuses on how we build software: agentic workflows, developer tooling and AI-assisted engineering.
This role belongs to Cloud Infrastructure, but the two areas work closely together.
Technical environment
Your day-to-day may include:
AWS
Kubernetes
Terraform/OpenTofu
kro and ACK
GitHub Actions
Go, TypeScript and other languages used across our engineering organisation
PostgreSQL, DynamoDB and OpenSearch
Grafana and OpenTelemetry
You’ll build APIs, CLI tooling and internal developer tooling on top of this. The exact technologies will continue to evolve. We care more about strong platform engineering fundamentals than experience with every tool in our current stack.
What TV4 offers
A senior engineering role with significant influence over the platform used across our engineering organisation
Short paths from idea to decision and high autonomy
Experienced engineering colleagues and technically challenging problems
Collective agreement, occupational pension, insurance and wellness allowance
Benify, your choice of phone and MacBook Pro
Office with gym, restaurant and garage
Practical information
TV4 is office-first and we work from our Stockholm office four days a week.
The position is permanent with a six-month probationary period.
Union affiliation: Unionen.
A background check is part of the recruitment process.
We look forward to hearing from you.
