WEAVEWORKS

Weaveworks was founded in 2014 and we are the company behind popular Kubernetes tools like Flux, Scope, the official CLI for Amazon EKS called EKSCtl and the flagship enterprise product Weave Kubernetes Platform.

Our mission is to help the world's leading organizations to adopt Kubernetes and other Cloud Native technologies and working practices. Enterprises use our products and services to build better software and operate it reliably, at scale. Our approach brings together container-based application deployment, Kubernetes, and operations tooling in a model we call GitOps.

We want to bring an empathetic and collaborative engineer into one of our teams that focuses on a blend of open source, commercial code and splash of client facing interaction. This needs someone who is comfortable navigating sometimes unclear scenarios and is proactive in wanting to help figure things out. You will be helping to develop and maintain tools and products which make using cloud-managed and on-premise Kubernetes installations easy.
