At Jamf, we empower people to be their best selves and do their best work. In this role, you will become a member of the team responsible for DNS gateways that are the cornerstones of many of our products. These gateways are deployed in our clusters all over the globe, and it will be your responsibility to keep them in a good shape. You will be cooperating closely with the team of developers who are the main contributors and maintainers into these gateways and other microservices that form our infrastructure. You will definitely be in touch with other Cloud Engineers in our Secure Connectivity unit, addressing the issues and coming up with improvements that take our infrastructure to another level.

As a member of our Agile Team, you'll be involved in code reviews, velocity estimation, planning, and other Agile workflows. We value good communication and collaboration with Product Owners, Development teams, and Cloud and Delivery teams to keep everything running smoothly.

You'll also help create and maintain technical documentation and take on other tasks as needed, following our departmental policies and procedures. If you're looking for a dynamic and supportive team, we'd love to have you on board!
