Company Description Who We Are Cint is a pioneer in research technology (ResTech).
Our customers use the Cint platform to post questions and get answers from real people to build business strategies, confidently publish research, accurately measure the impact of digital advertising, and more.
The Cint platform is built on a programmatic marketplace, which is the world’s largest, with nearly 300 million respondents in over 150 countries who consent to sharing their opinions, motivations, and behaviours.
We are feeding the world’s curiosity! Job Description The Opportunity Cint seeks a Cloud Infrastructure FinOps Engineer to join our Infrastructure team, reporting to the Director of Infrastructure.
As a Cloud Infrastructure FinOps Engineer at Cint, you will contribute to designing, building and maintaining scalable and secure cloud infrastructure.
You will have the opportunity to work with the latest technologies, we always strive to be at the forefront of the latest tech stacks and tools used within our domain.
You’ll work closely with our product engineering teams to help support our cloud platform, focussing on automation, performance and reliability.
Whilst this is an engineering first role, you will help ensure cost efficient operations through FinOps aligned practices.
As a Cloud Infrastructure FinOps Engineer, you’ll contribute to cloud cost visibility and optimisation efforts by supporting tagging strategies, cost attribution tooling and integration of FinOps data into engineering workflows.
You’ll bring the confidence and influence to not only lead technical FinOps initiatives, but champion that mentality and understanding across R&D, driving harmony between infrastructure, engineering and product teams.
The Team The Infrastructure Team’s mission is to design, build and develop secure and highly available infrastructure, but also to provide a self-service environment that enables software development teams to move fast, stay compliant and take end-to-end responsibility for their products.
As part of this, we incorporate FinOps practices to ensure our Infrastructure is not only performant and reliable but cost efficient and transparent.
We enable engineering teams to understand the financial impact of their decisions and empower them to make cost conscious decisions through data and accountability.
Major elements of our platform include AWS (we make significant use of S3, RDS, Kinesis, EC2, EMR, ElastiCache, ElasticSearch and EKS), Linux, Terraform, Kubernetes, Docker, Packer, Ansible and Jenkins.
We support applications and services written in Golang, Python, Java, Scala and.
et.
We monitor and alert on everything we deploy via Grafana, Prometheus, Graphite and ELK stacks.
The team holds itself accountable to a high standard of build quality.
We have recently completed the first major phase of a completely green-field infrastructure and platform rebuild that is designed to underpin Cint’s business applications for the next decade.
We are compulsive about infrastructure as code (nothing in our platform is created or deployed unless via a code change), committed to cost visibility and optimisation, along with being driven to achieve a full end to end continuous deployment pipeline.
