About the role
The AI orchestration of your wildest imagination. n8n is the open workflow orchestration platform built for the new era of AI. We give technical teams the freedom of code with the speed of no-code, so they can automate faster, smarter, and without limits. Backed by a fiercely inventive community and 500+ builder-approved integrations, we’re changing the way people bring systems together and scale ideas for impact. Since our founding in 2019, we’ve grown into a diverse team of over 220 - working across Europe and the US, connected by a shared builder spirit and with our centre of gravity in Berlin. Along the way, we’ve: Cultivated a community of more than 650,000 active developers and builders Earned 145k+ GitHub stars, making us one of the world’s Top 40 most popular projects Been ranked as one of Europe’s most promising privately held SaaS startups (4th in Sifted’s 2025 B2B SaaS Rising 100) Raised $240m to date, from Sequoia’s first German seed to our recent $180m Series C - bringing us to a $2.5bn valuation That’s the company we’ve built. Now we’d love to see what you can build. If you’re applying, try n8n out - whether you’re technical or not - and share a screenshot of your first workflow with us. The easiest place to start is here: app.n8n.cloud/register . We’re in a defining moment of an incredible journey. Come and build with us. 🎯 Your main goal will be to design, build, and operate the cloud infrastructure and networking foundations powering n8n Cloud, enabling us to scale securely and reliably across regions and customers. To do so, you’ll help shape the infrastructure architecture, systems, and deployment patterns that allow n8n Cloud to grow with speed, resilience, and confidence: DESIGN & BUILD CLOUD INFRASTRUCTURE Design, build, and operate cloud infrastructure across Azure with a focus on reliability, scalability, and operational excellence. Create infrastructure solutions from the ground up rather than simply operating existing tooling or templates. Support the evolution of our platform architecture as n8n Cloud scales to millions of users. SCALE MULTI-REGION PLATFORM SYSTEMS Build and improve infrastructure patterns for multi-region deployments, high availability, and fault tolerance. Use Kubernetes and managed Kubernetes services such as AKS to run and scale cloud-native workloads. Identify and resolve infrastructure bottlenecks before they impact customers or internal teams. STRENGTHEN NETWORKING, SECURITY & HARDENING Improve the security, resilience, and hardening of our cloud infrastructure and deployment practices. Apply strong infrastructure architecture principles to build systems that are secure, maintainable, and scalable. Contribute to networking-related platform decisions, including Kubernetes networking, tunneling, routing, and connectivity patterns. DRIVE INFRASTRUCTURE AS CODE & COLLABORATION Use Terraform and Infrastructure as Code practices to build repeatable, reliable, and well-governed infrastructure. Collaborate with Cloud Platform engineers, product engineers, and other technical teams on cross-functional infrastructure initiatives. Bring a hands-on, pragmatic approach to architectural decision-making, technical trade-offs, and platform evolution. RELIABILITY (KTLO) & ON-CALL Contribute to on-call rotation, helping keep our systems healthy and performant. Own and evolve KTLO (keep-the-lights-on) work: tackle reliability, performance bottlenecks, and critical bug fixes. REQUIREMENTS Must-haves ☁️ Cloud infrastructure experience: You have hands-on experience managing and deploying infrastructure on Azure or alternatively GCP or AWS. 🏗️ Infrastructure design: You have designed infrastructure solutions from the ground up, not just operated tools or systems built by others. 🧱 Infrastructure as Code: You’re confident using Terraform and IaC practices to build scalable, repeatable cloud infrastructure. ☸️ Kubernetes: You have strong experience with Kubernetes and managed services such as AKS, or GKE, EKS. 🔐 Security-first mindset: You know how to build secure, hardened systems using cloud and infrastructure best practices. 📈 Scale experience: You have worked on larger-scale deployments and understand the operational challenges that come with growth. 🧭 Architectural judgement: You can make thoughtful infrastructure design decisions and explain the trade-offs behind them. 🌱 Growth mindset: You’re curious, resourceful, and comfortable figuring things out when the answer is not immediately obvious. Nice-to-haves 🌐 Networking fundamentals: You have a strong understanding of networking principles, architecture, routing, and connectivity patterns. 🕸️ Kubernetes networking: You’re familiar with Kubernetes networking concepts, tunneling, ingress, service meshes, or related patterns. 🧑🏫 Mentorship: You enjoy sharing knowledge and helping junior engineers build stronger infrastructure judgement. 🟦 Azure experience: You have hands-on experience building or operating infrastructure on Azure. 🏁 Startup experience: You’ve worked in a scrappy startup, high-trust small team, or entrepreneurial environment. Why join us? At n8n, you’ll work on the infrastructure challenges that define the next stage of our growth: scaling n8n Cloud from hundreds of thousands of users to millions while keeping the platform secure, reliable, and fast. You’ll help shape the foundations of a multi-cloud, multi-region platform used by a rapidly growing community of builders and technical teams around the world. You’ll join a small, high-trust Cloud Platform team with deep infrastructure expertise, lots of ownership, and real influence over architectural decisions. This is a chance to build hardened systems from the ground up, work across our AKS powered stack and help define the infrastructure patterns that will support n8n’s next chapter.
