OUR STORY?

🇪🇺 Join Scaleway and shape the sovereign cloud of tomorrow !

Since 1999, we have been designing secure, sustainable infrastructures aimed at supporting the most ambitious compagnies.

Historically known for our dedicated servers (Dedibox), we made a strategic shift to cloud computing in 2015. Staying true to our principles of simplicity, flexibility, and technical excellence, we have become one of the leading players in Europe in the sector.

With the rise of artificial intelligence, we have strengthened our commitment, supported by the Iliad Group, which is currently investing €3 billion to develop a serious, sovereign AI alternative to American and Asian giants. Every day, thanks to our rich catalog of products and services (bare metal, containerization, serverless, AI, etc.), Scaleway proudly serves 38,000 private and public sector clients, from Photoroom to Mistral AI, Golem.AI and ADEME.

📍 Our offices are located in Paris, Lille, Toulouse, Bordeaux, and Lyon.

WHY WE NEED YOU?

Our growth is driving us to strengthen our Serverless Compute team to accelerate the development of our serverless offerings and ensure their reliability and performance.

Your mission will be to lead and develop a team of engineers while contributing to technical innovation and strategic alignment, ensuring our products remain at the forefront of the industry.

YOUR FUTURE TEAM : SERVERLESS COMPUTE AT SCALEWAY 

At Scaleway, we work in a collaborative and international environment, where diverse backgrounds and idea-sharing drive ambitious cloud projects forward.

The Serverless Compute team is responsible for Serverless Functions, Serverless Containers, and Serverless Jobs:

> Serverless Functions & Containers allow running code or container images on demand, automatically scaling infrastructure and charging only for actual usage.

> Serverless Jobs enable running one-off or scheduled tasks using container images, dynamically allocating resources and billing only for what is consumed.

These products run on shared Kubernetes clusters, where security, stability, and performance pose major technical challenges. We leverage container security technologies like gVisor and Kata Containers to ensure user isolation and utilize various Scaleway products for system operations and monitoring. Additionally, we maintain open-source libraries, integrations, and examples to support our users.
