Platform Engineer
WFA Digital Insight
Trafilea’s Platform Engineer sits at the intersection of infrastructure and developer productivity. The team treats the internal cloud platform as a product, meaning engineers will be accountable for both reliability and the day‑to‑day experience of the engineering squads that depend on it. With a clear AI‑first mindset, the role isn’t just about keeping servers running; it’s about embedding automation that lets the broader organization ship faster. Candidates should expect to own end‑to‑end cloud design on AWS, shape Terraform‑based IaC pipelines, and champion self‑service tooling for Kubernetes. The position is fully remote from Argentina, offering a chance to influence a global e‑commerce engine while collaborating across 19 countries.
