At a glance
- Work mode
- Remote · UK
What you'll do
- Lead client implementations across cloud, hybrid, and on-prem environments, from requirements to a working Seqera Platform deployment
- Stand up the environment the Platform runs in and the compute it dispatches to, including networking, DNS, TLS, private CAs, IAM and secrets, container runtimes, and the storage that pipelines depend on
- Deliver whether you have full account access or almost none, guiding the client's own IT through each change while respecting their security and compliance posture
- Build the tools that make deployment repeatable and safe for non-experts, with pre-flight checks, clear failures, tests, and documentation
- Partner with Sales and Scientific Development to shape solutions and run proof-of-concept deployments
- Act as a senior escalation point, turning recurring client problems into lasting fixes alongside internal teams
- Run technical onboarding and pre-sales, elicit real requirements, navigate ambiguity, and stay credible with both scientists and DevOps engineers
What we're looking for
- Strong in at least one of AWS, Azure, or GCP
- Confident across networking, TLS and certificate management (public and private), IAM, and access control
- Judgment to work within a client's security and compliance constraints and explain it to a non-expert
- Terraform is a must
- Docker and Kubernetes are expected
- Have built and shipped tools that other people depend on, structured and commented for readers who are not you
- Comfortable in Python and Bash
- Treat tests, scanning, and documentation as part of shipping
- Understand how a workflow engine runs against remote compute, storage, and container runtimes
- Client-facing instinct: can run technical onboarding and pre-sales, elicit real requirements, navigate ambiguity
- Grit in the face of adversity
- Bringing people together to find shared goals when there is disagreement
Nice to have
- Multi-cloud expertise
- Exposure to HPC schedulers such as SLURM or Grid Engine
- Familiarity with other IaC (CloudFormation, Pulumi, Ansible)
- Helm
- Life sciences, bioinformatics, or scientific computing background
- Technical pre-sales experience
- Nextflow experience
- Startup experience
