We believe independent restaurants deserve the same advantages as big chains without giving up their independence. Ilir Sela started Slice in his family’s pizzerias, where he saw firsthand what it takes to run a local shop. Now we’re taking everything we’ve learned beyond pizza, to taquerias, delis, burger joints, and other neighborhood staples. We put technology, marketing, buying power, and support to work for more than 15,000 restaurants, so owners spend less time on admin, marketing, and order management and more time growing their business. They remain independent, but never alone. We’re growing our team to help bring this next chapter to life. That’s where you come in. This position is open to applicants across all of the UK, Canada and North Macedonia on a remote basis, with the physical office located in Belfast, Northern Ireland. What You'll Do As a Platform Engineer on the DevEx Deploy & Run team, you'll build and evolve the platform that powers engineering across Slice.

You will: Build and maintain our Internal Developer Platform, making it easier for engineers to deploy, operate, and troubleshoot their services. Create self-service tooling and automation that eliminate repetitive work and reduce operational overhead. Design and implement GitOps workflows using ArgoCD to provide safe, repeatable, and scalable application delivery. Improve our Kubernetes platform by developing reusable patterns, templates, and guardrails that make the right thing the easy thing. Build internal applications and developer tooling in Python that simplify infrastructure management and operational workflows. Enhance CI/CD pipelines using GitHub Actions, improving deployment speed, consistency, and developer productivity. Use generative AI to help build and maintain internal services, including agentic services Improve observability by leveraging Datadog dashboards, metrics, logging, tracing, and alerting to help teams operate confidently in production.

Who You Are We're looking for engineers who enjoy building platforms rather than products—people who love automation, reducing complexity, and enabling others to move faster. The ideal candidate has: Platform mindset You think in terms of reusable systems instead of one-off fixes. You enjoy creating platforms, guardrails, and automation that improve the experience of dozens or hundreds of engineers. Strong automation skills You're comfortable writing production-quality software—particularly in Python—to automate infrastructure, build internal tooling, and eliminate manual processes. Kubernetes experience You have experience operating or building on Kubernetes and understand modern cloud-native deployment patterns. GitOps & CI/CD You understand GitOps principles and have experience with tools like ArgoCD, GitHub Actions, or similar deployment and automation platforms.
