Spacelift is an infrastructure orchestration platform that manages your entire infrastructure lifecycle — provisioning, configuration and governance. Spacelift integrates with all your infrastructure tooling (e.g. Terraform, OpenTofu, CloudFormation, Pulumi, Ansible) to provide a single integrated workflow so you can deliver secure, cost-effective, and resilient infrastructure, fast.

By automating deployment and configuration, providing developer self-service, golden paths with guardrails, and an OPA policy engine, Spacelift empowers businesses to accelerate developer velocity while maintaining control and governance over their infrastructure. Spacelift offers unrivaled support, no-nonsense pricing, and a range of deployment models to fit your specific needs.

Spacelift was founded in 2020 by long-time DevOps practitioner Marcin Wyszynski and successful entrepreneur Pawel Hytry and has raised $31.3M in funding over three rounds from top venture capital firms including Insight Partners, Blossom Capital, Hoxton Ventures, and Inovo Venture partners.

As a software engineer, you will work with your product team to build and extend new features. In addition to that, you will also be contributing to the discovery phase that our UI/UX designers facilitate. You might work on integration with IaC, add support for new policies, or make a change that will make Spacelift even more powerful, easier to use, and loved by our users.

The backend tech stack is Go, AWS, PostgreSQL, GraphQL, OpenPolicyAgent, OpenTofu/Terraform FOSS, Infrastructure-as-Code, CloudNative/Kubernetes, Datadog, and Launchdarkly
