Here is how you can shape our journey as Lead Platform Engineer (m/f/x):
Your tasks
As Lead Platform Engineer (m/f/d) you will own the cloud-native infrastructure that engineering teams rely on to move fast.

Your responsibilities:
Own the reliability, security, compliance, and cost efficiency of our cloud platform
Automate the provisioning, scaling, and maintenance of our cloud infrastructure using Terraform, Kubernetes, and more
Drive architectural discussions and align platform standards across engineering, product, and security teams, negotiating constraints where needed
Approach platform engineering with a product mindset, where internal teams are your customers
Identify gaps and inefficiencies before they become incidents and own the solution end to end
Evaluate and integrate AI-assisted tooling into platform workflows where it creates real value
What you bring
What you bring:
Must have:
Professional experience with AWS, Kubernetes, and Terraform
Proven experience influencing technical decisions beyond your immediate team
Communicate technical and architectural tradeoffs clearly to both engineers and non-technical audiences
Experience coding with Go or Python as well as with scripting languages like Bash
Experience with monitoring, logging, and alerting
Knowledge in platform security best practices
Strong communication skills and fluency in English
Nice to have:
Familiarity with GitOps workflows and infrastructure automation pipelines (Terragrunt, Atlantis, SST)
Your Benefits - Why CLARK
At CLARK, you don't just work; you shape things. To help you give your best, we support you with a package that combines flexibility, security, and personal growth.
We give you real choice and autonomy:
Work 100% remotely or in a hybrid setup from our modern offices in Germany
Workation option of up to 182 days within a 12-month period from more than 50 countries, (subject to applicable legal, tax, and social security regulations)
30 vacation days, with an extra half day on December 24 and December 31
Flexible working hours, allowing you to structure your workday in a way that fits your life
We invest in you, professionally and personally:
2 paid Impact Days per year to support your voluntary or community engagement
A wide range of development formats including hackathons, leadership programs, internal trainings, and monthly Lunch & Learn sessions
Access to internal and external learning and development opportunities
Team spirit: Quarterly workshops and annual global events strengthen our cohesion across borders.
To give you peace of mind and let you focus on the things that are really important:
Attractive employer contributions to an occupational pension scheme
Exclusive employee discounts and partner offers
