Quantexa is a data analytics company founded in 2016, originally innovating in FinTech to combat financial crime. The company now serves a broader market with cloud-based analytics solutions. You'll join one of the DevOps teams in the R&D department, working on the Quantexa Cloud Platform—a landscape of low-maintenance, on-demand, highly secure environments that host software for customers, partners, and internal R&D teams.
Your responsibilities will include improving platform availability and resilience, enhancing usability and security, driving technical innovation, and reducing operational toil across the infrastructure estate. You'll work closely with software engineering teams to support release activities and develop cloud-based product offerings that enable customers to run their own DevOps processes on their cloud infrastructure.
The tech stack centers on Docker, Kubernetes, and Istio for orchestration. DevOps tooling and automation are built with Bash, Python, Groovy, Jenkins, and Golang. You'll provision and manage software frameworks including Elasticsearch, Spark, Hadoop, and PostgreSQL. Infrastructure management uses Configuration as Code (CasC) and Infrastructure as Code (IaC) tools like Ansible, Terraform, and Packer. Observability is handled through Fluentd, Prometheus, Grafana, and Alertmanager. The primary cloud platform is GCP, with secondary support for AWS and Azure.
Quantexa is a diverse, multinational organization with nearly half of colleagues from ethnic or religious minority backgrounds, representing 47 nationalities and speaking over 20 languages. The culture emphasizes collaboration, thoughtful engineering, and ambitious problem-solving.
