What we’re looking for:
You’re a mid-senior Platform/Cloud Engineer with:

We offer:
A fully remote role within Europe, with flexible working hours that support focus, autonomy, and effective collaboration across teams and clients.
A mid–senior platform engineering role with real ownership - you design, build, and evolve cloud platforms that support data science and ML workflows in regulated life sciences environments.
Meaningful work on real client projects, typically with one main engagement at a time, allowing you to go deep rather than constantly context switch.
A strong consulting setup: close collaboration with cross-functional teams and the opportunity to advise clients on architecture, best practices, and long-term platform decisions.
Competitive B2B compensation aligned with your experience and impact, with clear and transparent terms.
A transparent growth framework and defined career paths that support long-term development as a platform engineer.

Modern equipment (MacBook or ThinkPad with Linux) and tools that enable efficient, high-quality engineering work.
A remote-first culture built on trust, ownership, and collaboration, where delivery excellence goes hand in hand with mutual respect and strong team relationships.
