Fetcherr builds responsible AI that transforms market complexity into measurable profit growth. The company's proprietary Market Model delivers accurate, granular demand predictions with 96% forecast accuracy and real-time decision intelligence for commercial teams. Built on a glass-box architecture using market data with full transparency, it is deployed across global aviation and scales across volatile markets, delivering an average profit uplift of 7% for corporate partners including Delta, Virgin Atlantic, WestJet, Viva, and Azul.
The company is experiencing rapid growth into new verticals and markets, requiring a transition to a highly scalable, Kubernetes-native architecture. This is both an engineering and leadership opportunity: you will build and grow the DevOps/Platform Engineering team while establishing how platform engineering is done as the company scales.
Key Responsibilities:
- Self-Service Enablement: Empower cross-functional teams with secure, automated pathways that accelerate development while maintaining organizational standards.
- Architectural Modularization: Evolve infrastructure into a decoupled, scalable architecture supporting rapid iteration and independent service lifecycles.
- Unified Infrastructure Management: Implement "Everything as Code" strategy, treating infrastructure, policy, and configuration with the same standards as application software.
- Proactive Reliability: Foster operational excellence through robust observability, clear Service Level Objectives, high operational hygiene, and safety.
- Team Leadership: Build and grow a high-performing Platform Engineering team, define technical domain ownership, and scale globally.
Success Metrics:
- 6 months: Lead transformation to self-service infrastructure platform with 30% reduction in deployment lead times, 50% increase in self-service adoption among R&D teams, and platform-wide observability with 99.9% uptime for core services.
- 12 months: Evolve Platform Engineering team into a high-scale, autonomous unit setting the standard for engineering excellence.
Leadership Philosophy:
Deliver value sustainably at a pace the team can hold indefinitely. Empower rather than assign; provide context and autonomy while holding accountability. Build a learning team through data-driven retrospectives, blameless postmortems, and deliberate engineer growth. Maintain non-negotiable standards: tested, reviewed, observable, highly available, staging-first. Stay hands-on enough to earn technical trust and make hard calls.
