Platform Engineer

Tower (tower.dev) is a Python-native serverless data platform company. Data teams write plain Python, and Tower handles packaging, dependency resolution, scheduling, and execution across a serverless runtime built on Apache Iceberg. The product aims to let local Python scripts run in production at scale without a Databricks detour. The team is small and senior, split between London and Berlin.

Senior Backend / Platform Engineer (Hybrid)

The work is deep systems work including scheduling, distributed execution, and performance.

Stack includes Go and Rust for the platform, Python everywhere it matters, Kubernetes (EKS + Karpenter) on AWS, RDS Postgres, ElastiCache Redis, S3 / Iceberg, and WorkOS for auth.

Looking for:

• strong distributed-systems fundamentals
• comfort owning a system end to end
• taste for correctness under load
• Bonus: data-platform, query-engine, or Iceberg experience
• async Rust
• Kubernetes internals
