DevOps Engineer

São Paulo-SP, Brazil or Porto Alegre-RS, Brazil

Who We Are

In 2021, Poatek was acquired by WillowTree, an award-winning digital product consultancy recognized as one of the fastest-growing and best places to work in the United States. Now a TELUS Digital company, with offices across the globe, we continue to partner with the world’s leading brands, such as HBO, PepsiCo, Domino’s, and more, to design, build, and transform their digital products and strategies. We’re looking to grow our Poatek offices in Brazil with top talent excited to collaborate with team members across the globe to deliver innovative solutions for our clients.

Will an update affect our teams up/downstream?). However, you won’t only be focused on our development stack of today; you’ll partner with our teams to better understand their future needs and recommend technologies to match.
