Journey that awaits you

At Staria, we are proud to develop our own BI & Planning software, Naviloq, which plays a crucial role in our business operations and service offerings. As a Senior Cloud Operations Specialist, you will be a key member of the product development team dedicated to this software. Your role will involve managing and enhancing our cloud infrastructure to support and scale this critical business area.

Your main responsibilities will include maintaining, upgrading, and monitoring our cloud and SQL servers to ensure optimal performance and security. You will manage cloud services, troubleshoot issues, and oversee the scalability of our server environments. This role involves constructing VPN tunnels with service providers, modifying firewall settings, and automating routine system tasks to increase efficiency.

You will also participate in projects with the Naviloq cloud infra team to enhance platform scalability and service availability globally. These projects are essential for developing server architecture in collaboration with the product development team for new service initiatives.

Expectations for your first year include automating server environment monitoring, centralizing service analytics, and building a globally scalable platform together with the team. You will also contribute to ensuring our security processes are ISO 270001-certified.

This role offers the freedom to influence architectural decisions and the strategic direction of our cloud infrastructure, making it ideal for someone looking to make a significant impact in a technology-driven company.

Our hybrid work model offers the best of both worlds. You are invited to enjoy our modern office in the heart of Helsinki, where our BI & Planning team often gathers for collaboration and casual lunch meetups. While you have the flexibility to work remotely, occasional face-to-face engagements in Helsinki are essential for maintaining effective teamwork and collaboration.

Why join us?

• You'll play a key role in enhancing our server environment and expanding it into international markets. We're currently scaling our product globally and preparing to market it through partner channels. Join us at this exciting time to help develop and launch our product worldwide.
• We are like a startup under the wing of a larger organization. Staria acts as our incubator, providing the support and stability as we innovate and grow within the venture. Enjoy the best aspects of a startup environment with the robust backing of an established company.
• Our team is agile; we quickly pivot and bravely experiment. As a growth company, we develop our operations genuinely centered around our customers without rigid practices.
• At Staria, work is done with quality and professionalism, yet in a relaxed atmosphere and flat hierarchy. We have received the Future Workplaces certification as a testament to our excellent employee experience.
• Working at Staria is genuinely flexible. We operate on a hybrid model, so you are warmly welcome to our beautiful office in the heart of Helsinki, but you can also work flexibly from remote locations, occasionally even from abroad.

Keys to success in this role:

• 5+ years of experience in cloud operations or infrastructure management, with a strong background in server environment development projects and automation.
• Experience in maintenance of virtual servers in Linux server environments.
• Experience in scripting (eg. Bash, PowerShell).
• You thrive in managing complex cloud environments and are passionate about enhancing system scalability and reliability.
• Excellent communication skills in English; Finnish is a plus.
• Experience working with API interfaces and expertise in network design and planning are considered advantages.
