Job Description
About Us
We are big believers in autonomous teams and iterative development. We are crazy about continuous improvement and knowledge sharing, and we want people who share our enthusiasm.
We strive to always build the right thing and build the thing right, so we place great emphasis on code quality, testability, continuously integrating and pairing.
We make designing the product everyone’s business - what we are going to do and how we do it are team decisions. And we focus on meeting exactly what the customer needs now, always aiming to build the minimum lovable product.

- Infrastructure as code with Terraform.
- Application deployments with Helm.
- Tooling and platform services written in Go.
- CI/CD with Concourse, Github Actions and Bazel.
- High-performance data & messaging on Postgres and Kafka
- Observability using Prometheus, Grafana and Jaeger.

First we assess the flexibility options 11:FS provides and then we anonymously survey a statistically significant proportion of their employees to make sure 11:FS is as flexible as they say they are. Our assessment is based on the six key elements of flexibility: location, hours, autonomy, benefits, role modelling and work-life balance.
We ask the hard questions so you don’t have to.
