About Octopus Deploy

Octopus Deploy sets the standard for Continuous Delivery, empowering software teams to deliver value in an agile way. Over 4,000 organizations globally – including Ubisoft, Xero, Stack Overflow, NASA, and Disney – rely on our Continuous Delivery, GitOps, and release orchestration solutions.

Founded in Australia in 2012, our team of over 300 Octonauts now spans the globe. We combine high growth and big ambitions with a sustainable, balanced working environment. Our revenue has grown consistently between 20–50% every year for the past 9 years, and we’ve been profitable for 10 out of the past 12 years. Octopus now provides the industry's most comprehensive Continuous Delivery solution for organizations operating at scale.

We’ve been remote-first since 2015 and work with an uncommon level of transparency. You can read our public handbook to learn how we work. We have a transparent approach to compensation that ensures people doing the same work with the same skill get paid the same, with well-defined career pathways. We foster a supportive, collaborative, and high-trust environment. We leave our job titles at the door and focus on doing what’s best for our customers and team. Our leaders never shy away from answering the tough questions at our all-hands calls or in 1:1s. We conduct interviews and onboarding virtually as part of being a remote-first company.

About The Role

Kubernetes has become the standard, but deploying to it is still painful. We're fixing that. You'll build the tools that make Kubernetes deployments as simple as they should be - from the agent running in-cluster to the platform orchestrating it all.

We're looking for a Software Engineer to join our team of 7 (Principal Product Manager, Engineering Manager, Lead Engineers, and Senior Engineers).

This is a permanent, full-time role in our Ramat Gan office, with a hybrid working setup.

Who We're Looking For

We want engineers with agency - people who operate like owners, not task-takers.

You take initiative. You don't wait to be told what to do. You see problems, propose solutions, and drive them forward. You're comfortable with ambiguity and turn it into clarity for yourself and others.

You own outcomes, not just tasks. When something breaks, you fix it. When something's unclear, you clarify it. You don't say "that's not my job" - you say "I'll figure it out."

You ship. You have a bias toward action. You'd rather iterate on something real than debate something theoretical. You know when to ask for permission and when to ask for forgiveness.

You leverage AI. You actively use AI tools to amplify your impact. You're not threatened by AI-you're excited by it. You experiment with new tools and share what works with your team.

What You'll Be Doing

• Design, build, and maintain backend services and platform components
• Collaborate on feature delivery, architectural decisions, and technical design
• Improve existing systems-scalability, reliability, technical debt
• Collaborate with teammates to improve code quality through reviews and knowledge sharing
• Operate and support the software you build
  
  

Technical Skills

• At least 3 years of professional experience building backend software in C#
• Experience with Kubernetes (deploying/operating containerized workloads)
• Experience with SQL and relational databases
• Solid understanding of software fundamentals (API design, System Design, Testing Strategies)
• Experience building and operating production systems
• Strong communication and a pragmatic, problem-solving mindset
  
  

Nice To Have

• Experience with Go (or interest in learning)
• Experience with React or frontend development
• Familiarity with container tooling, cloud-native systems, or CI/CD
• Experience with Argo CD or GitOps workflows
• Background in developer tools, platforms, or infrastructure products
  
  

How We Work

• End-to-end ownership-you're responsible from code to production
• Humane on-call that respects your time
• Results-oriented: iterate quickly, ship value, change direction based on data
• Collaborative problem-solving with passion, pragmatism, and empathy
