If you love building platforms that other engineers love using, this is your role.
Why Platform Engineering at DoubleVerify?
Real Impact at Scale
Your work directly enables engineering teams across the company to move faster and more reliably. The platforms you build process billions of advertising verification events daily for Fortune 500 brands—real infrastructure challenges at meaningful scale.
Ownership & Autonomy
Senior platform engineers own entire systems end-to-end. You'll make architectural decisions, define standards, and have the freedom to implement the best solutions—not just follow tickets.
Cutting-Edge Technology
Work with modern cloud-native technologies and emerging tools. We invest in the latest CNCF ecosystem innovations and give you the space to experiment and learn.
Collaborative, Global Team
Partner with talented engineers across US, Israel, and Europe. You'll work with specialists in SRE, AI infrastructure, security, and development—learning from diverse perspectives while mentoring others.
What You'll Achieve
Own Company-Wide Infrastructure Platforms
Design, deploy, and operate Kubernetes platforms across GCP, AWS, and data center environments that serve as the foundation for 100+ engineering teams
Build and maintain critical shared services: streaming (Kafka), data storage (Aerospike), workflow orchestration (Airflow), and observability (Prometheus, Grafana) that process billions of events with 99.9%+ reliability
Elevate Developer Experience
Create tooling and automation that transforms complex platform operations into simple self-service workflows—empowering developers while maintaining security and stability
Drive CI/CD evolution by building operators, controllers, and management tools that reduce toil and accelerate deployment velocity
Shape Infrastructure Standards
Partner with product teams from day one to ensure new features integrate cleanly and reliably into DV's infrastructure, preventing technical debt before it happens
Define and promote best practices for automation, observability, security, and maintainability that scale across the organization
Lead Technical Projects
Plan and deliver high-impact infrastructure initiatives in collaboration with multidisciplinary DevOps, SRE, and engineering teams across US, Israel, and Europe
Use metrics, logs, and traces to proactively identify and resolve performance bottlenecks, turning insights into lasting improvements
Who you are
5+ years in DevOps, Platform Engineering, or SRE roles operating production infrastructure at scale
3+ years hands-on experience with Kubernetes in production environments (bonus if you've owned/managed a K8s platform)
Strong cloud platform expertise in GCP or AWS (multi-cloud experience valued)
Software engineering mindset - you write code (Python, Go, Bash) to solve infrastructure problems, not just configure tools
Observability-driven troubleshooting - you're comfortable diving into metrics, logs, and traces to diagnose distributed system issues
Platform thinking - you design for reliability, scalability, and developer experience, not just "getting it working"
Your Tech Stack
Core Infrastructure
Cloud: GCP (primary), AWS
Orchestration: Kubernetes (GKE, on-prem), ArgoCD, Helm, Kyverno
Service Mesh: Envoy Gateway
IaC: Terraform, Crossplane
Data & Streaming
Streaming: Kafka
Observability & Testing
Monitoring: Prometheus, Mimir, Grafana, Grafana Alloy
Load Testing: K6
Tracing & Logging: Distributed across the stack
Access & Security
Access Management: Teleport
Policy Enforcement: Kyverno, custom admission controllers
CI/CD: GitLab CI/CD, GitHub Actions
Databases: Aerospike (NoSQL), various SQL systems
Workflow: Airflow
Nice to Have
Hands-on experience with Kafka, ArgoCD, Aerospike, or Airflow in production
Background with service mesh technologies (Envoy Gateway, Istio)
Experience with GitOps workflows and infrastructure-as-code (Terraform, Crossplane)
Contributions to open-source platform tooling or CNCF projects
Site Reliability Engineering (SRE) practices and culture
Beyond the Resume
Empathy for developers - you care deeply about improving the experience of engineers using your platforms
Systems thinker - you see the big picture and understand how components interact across distributed systems
Strong communicator - you can explain complex infrastructure concepts to application developers and collaborate across teams
Initiative and ownership - you don't wait to be told what to do; you identify problems and drive solutions
The successful candidate’s base salary will be determined based on a number of non-discriminatory factors, including qualifications for the role, level, skills, experience, location, and internal equity considerations.
The estimated salary range for this role, based on the qualifications set forth in the job description, is between €70K – €120K. This role may also be eligible for bonus or commission (as applicable), equity and benefits.
Not-so-fun fact: Research shows that while men apply to jobs when they meet an average of 60% of job criteria, women and other marginalized groups tend to only apply when they check every box. So if you think you have what it takes, but you’re not sure that you check every box, apply anyway!
