Want to work on impactful cloud features? Comfortable designing resilient and secure microservices, keeping systems reliable? Then you could be a great fit for our team and help us in building and operating IAR’s next-generation cloud platform for managing software access and entitlements.

About the role

Our cloud license platform is a central component that is used by all IAR’s subscription-based products. As we're growing our service to include multi-region coverage, your focus is to make sure that the service delivers the best possible performance and experience for IARs customers, improving both availability and reliability at scale.

You'll join a lean, evolving team that already has a solid foundation in back-end/software engineering, as well product domain knowledge in licensing and customer workflows. Joining IAR you'll add complementary skills in CloudOps; making sure we secure multi-region readiness and hit our reliability targets. You'll also take part in further development projects contributing on both the cloud and client side.

Your role includes, but is not limited to:

• Develop, operate and continuously improve highly available web services running in Azure Kubernetes Service (AKS) clusters.
• Handle multi-region deployments in Sweden, US and China.
• Use Infrastructure as Code (Terraform and Helm) to define environments and manage service releases.
• Plan and run stress/performance tests
• Use monitoring, dashboards and alerting (Prometheus, Loki, Grafana) to validate reliability and drive improvements.
• Partner with IT on production operations under SLA and on related integrations; communicate clearly across teams to resolve incidents and follow up on improvements.
• Participate in technical design and code reviews
• Investigate and evaluate new technologies and practices.
• Train colleagues/users in your SME area and drive continuous improvement.
• Prepare and provide input for product documentation and internal guides.

Who we’re looking for

You’re an engineer who has experience building and running resilient cloud services. You’re confident taking initiative in cloud infrastructure, and you can solve complex problems both independently and in collaboration with other teams. You take pride in designing resilient systems, and you’re comfortable acting as the subject-matter expert for cloud operations and reliability.

You likely have:

• Proven experience operating live cloud services, with hands-on experience improving monitoring and alerting, conducting stress/performance testing, and strengthening resilience and failover.
• Experienced in building cloud services and comfortable working across different tech stacks
• Cloud and cluster expertise across Azure, AWS, or GCP, including Kubernetes traffic & routing fundamentals.
• Secure coding practices for cloud apps and can configure application edge configurations (gateways/load balancers—TLS/HTTPS, basic DNS, private endpoints).

Beneficial tools & knowledge (any-of):

• Observability stacks including Prometheus, Grafana and Loki.
• IaC exposure (we use Terraform).
• GitOps practices and tooling (e.g., ArgoCD).
• CI/CD (e.g. Jenkins)
• Multi-region design experience.
• NoSQL databases like MongoDB and Redis.
