Senior Software Engineer 

As a Staff Cloud Infrastructure Engineer, you will design and own the multi-cluster orchestration layer that allows our computer vision platform to scale reliably and cost-effectively. The workload processes hundreds of matches per month, with extreme bustiness&mdash;most demand concentrates into narrow weekend windows&mdash;creating GPU capacity challenges that cannot be solved with standard, off-the-shelf approaches.
&nbsp;
The foundational infrastructure is already in place (multiple multi-zonal Kubernetes clusters), but critical challenges remain:
<ul>
<li>replacing manual workload placement with automated, priority-aware scheduling</li>
<li>making spot/preemptible GPUs resilient without human intervention</li>
<li>guaranteeing capacity for high-importance workloads</li>
<li>and evolving toward a GPU strategy capable of supporting several times our current scale</li>
</ul>
&nbsp;
This is a high-autonomy role with full ownership of the infrastructure stack. Your mission is to turn operational bottlenecks into robust, automated systems.
&nbsp;
Who You Are
<ul>
<li>You&rsquo;ve operated Kubernetes in production at real scale, including multi-cluster or multi-region systems</li>
<li>You deeply understand GPU infrastructure: scheduling constraints, quotas, spot dynamics, and why GPUs behave differently than CPUs</li>
<li>You&rsquo;ve built automation that removed manual operational work</li>
<li>You&rsquo;re fluent in infrastructure as code (Pulumi preferred, Terraform acceptable)</li>
<li>You treat cost as an engineering constraint, not a post-hoc finance problem</li>
<li>You&rsquo;ve handled bursty, unpredictable workloads and the capacity planning challenges they create</li>
<li>You can analyse complex workflow DAGs and reason about failure modes and bottlenecks</li>
<li>You&rsquo;ve experienced enough operational pain to know what must be automated now versus later</li>
</ul>
&nbsp;
Core Technical Requirements
<ul>
<li>Deep Kubernetes expertise (managed Kubernetes experience strongly preferred), including multi-cluster operations</li>
<li>Hands-on experience with cloud GPU infrastructure: spot instances, capacity planning, instance selection</li>
<li>Strong infrastructure-as-code skills</li>
<li>Experience with workflow orchestration systems (Argo Workflows ideal; alternatives acceptable)</li>
<li>Proven ability to design for reliability: SLAs, graceful degradation, automated recovery</li>
<li>Strong understanding of cloud cost optimisation at the architectural level</li>
<li>Effective use of LLM-based developer tools to accelerate infrastructure and platform work</li>
</ul>
&nbsp;
Nice to Have
<ul>
<li>Experience designing multi-cloud systems or cloud abstraction layers</li>
<li>Background in video processing, media pipelines, or broadcast infrastructure</li>
<li>Familiarity with ML infrastructure patterns and GPU scheduling for inference vs. batch workloads</li>
<li>Contributions to open-source infrastructure projects (Kubernetes, Argo, or related tooling)</li>
</ul>

Hey, I'm Mitchell, I founded UMATR at the start of 2021 after spending three years collaborating with some of the coolest tech companies across the globe.&nbsp; ​ My driving factors behind UMATR are simple: to provide a growing market with a true specialist focusing on Cloud Computing. Ensure that both clients and engineers are listened to, and provided with a bespoke service. Last but not least, absolutely ensure that the UMATR team are valued and fulfilled. 👫🚀 Why? Because your hiring needs matter. Your career matters. Your goals &amp; dreams matter, and most of all - You Matter. 💙 ​ I started my recruitment career helping contract engineers within Europe, and then shifted my focus to working with full-time engineers across the United States. This has provided me with an in-depth knowledge of different markets and tech communities. My efforts in the recruitment sector have led to recognition from two reputable groups. The RDLC awarded me with the 'Rookie of the Year&rsquo;, and the Recruitment Awards Shortlisted me within the Top 4 &lsquo;Most Inspiring Recruiters&rsquo; within the industry. 🏆💫 ​ I love to travel and see the world. That is my passion and one of the reasons I love recruitment. I get to work with so many different people across the globe, and I get to visit my clients around the world. I have personally lived in Los Angeles &amp; Dubai which have been some of my best experiences of my life so far. But London is my home and, in my opinion, the greatest city in the world. 🌎🏌️&zwj;♂️

Hey I&rsquo;m Jai, 👋🏼 I am the Delivery Manager at UMATR, and one of the founding team members. 🦈
Over the past 9 years, I&rsquo;ve worked with some of the most exciting and influential brands in their respective spaces. From Dubai to London, I&rsquo;ve always had a passion for connecting people - whether that was finding someone a new home early in my career, or more recently, helping Software Engineers land their dream roles at some of the world&rsquo;s most innovative tech companies. 🏠🌵
My recruitment journey began by supporting freelance and contract engineers across Europe, and I now use that experience to help clients across Europe and the U.S. hire the top 1% of talent. I have a particular focus on Rust Engineers across Europe, working closely with specialists in this growing ecosystem to match them with cutting-edge opportunities. With a people-first approach, I ensure every search is shaped around the unique goals and needs of each engineer. 🎯🏄🏻&zwj;♂&zwj;
