Who will you be working with?  
In this role, you will work with a global team.  

How will you make a difference?   

We’re looking for a Staff Engineer who combines strong software engineering expertise with deep experience in cloud-native platforms — and a passion for innovation.
This is not an operational role. It is a high-impact, design-focused position centered around building, architecting, and evolving modern systems, while driving forward the next generation of technology in Wabtec

You will influence engineering standards, guide architectural decisions, and design scalable, cloud-native solutions. You’ll explore new technologies, prototype ideas, and help translate innovation into real, impactful products.

We want someone curious, investigative, communicative, hands-on, and comfortable exploring the unknown — someone who thrives on solving complex problems with clean, elegant engineering.

If you come from a software development or data science background and have strong cloud experience, don’t hesitate to reach out — this role may be a perfect fit.

What do we want to know about you? ​

• Bachelor’s degree in Computer Science, Software Engineering, or related field.
• Programming skills in Python or Go.
• Solid understanding of software design patterns, clean architecture, and distributed systems.
• Strong, hands-on experience with cloud platforms (AWS, Azure, or GCP).
  → AWS experience is strongly preferred.
• Experience with Kubernetes (deployment, architecture, usage for cloud-native services).
• Fluency in GitLab CI/CD and modern pipeline design.
• Experience with Infrastructure as Code (Terraform or CloudFormation preferred).
• Strong communication and collaboration skills — able to influence and guide teams.
• Advanced English proficiency.

Nice to Have

• Experience in multi-cloud environments.
• Experience with innovation environments, rapid prototyping, or research‑driven engineering.

What will your typical day look like? 

• Build cloud-native, distributed systems focused on scalability, maintainability, and performance.
• Use Python or Go to develop services, automations, and innovative cloud integrations.
• Work with AWS (or other cloud vendors) to design infrastructure, services, and platform components.
• Contribute to CI/CD improvements using GitLab CI.
• Write and evolve infrastructure using Terraform or CloudFormation.
• Design and guide Kubernetes-based deployments and workloads.
• Collaborate with cross-functional teams to explore new technologies and bring innovative concepts to life.
• Prototype ideas, validate hypotheses, and help shape the technical direction of the innovation group.
• Drive engineering excellence through documentation, patterns, mentorship, and technical leadership.
• Promote curiosity, investigation, experimentation, and continuous learning within the team.
