Frontend Team Lead M/F

ABOUT US

This role is fully remote, you can be located anywhere in Europe.

Hi there! Thanks for being here and let’s get started.

At Cycloid, We aim to promote efficient infrastructure & software delivery alongside digital sobriety. We do this by optimizing platform engineering, alleviating the cognitive load on IT teams, and advocating for Green IT and FinOps practices. Our mission is to enable a future where technology and sustainability can coexist harmoniously, leaving a lasting positive legacy.

Platform teams design, build and run the platform enabling end-users to visualize and deploy existing and new projects, interact with cutting-edge DevOps and Cloud automation without the need to become an expert, while keeping best practices in place, cloud expenses under control with a minimum carbon footprint.

Cycloid, a sustainable engineering platform, provides a frictionless self-service portal with modules around Self-service portail and orchestration, infrastructures and ressources management and FinOps and GreenOps.

At Cycloid, we’re an open organization meaning that your voice and point of view will have a true impact on how we work and the decisions we make. So, as you can imagine, we’re looking for someone who is keen on sharing his/her ideas and opinions. Don’t be shy!

In fact, every semester, you will be meeting the teams f2f in order to discuss the product roadmap and the next key developments we want to implement.

One goal: to make our sustainable platform engineering the leading platform in the world

Sounds like a plan, right?

WHAT IS MY CHALLENGE ?

Join a team of 4 experienced Frontend Developers and be a key part of the development of our new features. Have you heard of our freshly baked Cost Explorer feature yet?
