About Strava

Strava is the app for active people. With over 180 million athletes in more than 185 countries, it’s more than tracking workouts—it’s where people make progress together, from new habits to new personal bests. No matter your sport or how you track it, Strava’s got you covered. Find your crew, crush your goals, and make every effort count.

• Create and operate the infrastructure that makes Strava possible, from data stores and the container platform to observability software and deployment tooling.
• Develop software that empowers your engineering colleagues, providing them the tools and platforms to deliver scalable, reliable, and observable products.
• Find mentorship and growth opportunities with more experienced engineers on your team and beyond.
• Demonstrate empathy for other engineers and think about how the platform enhances and enables their work.
• Have an eye for detail and thoroughness, as you will work on the most important production systems at Strava.
• Display ownership of your work by managing deployment and participating in an on-call rotation.

• 5+ years of infrastructure engineering experience with a strong focus on cloud platform development.
• Passion for building reliable, scalable, and observable platforms that empower engineering teams to move quickly and with confidence.
• A track record of fully owning your work end to end, from architecture and implementation through ongoing maintenance and on‑call support.
• Proven ability to collaborate across engineering teams, driving adoption of platform standards and best practices without direct authority.
• Familiarity with incident management tooling and a methodical, composed approach to diagnosing and resolving complex operational issues.
