About the Role
The Core Resource Management (CRM) team is looking for a software engineer to help us build and maintain the Kubernetes-powered platform that underpins Anaplan. We’re after someone who loves engineering, is excited by the chance to use Rust to create robust and elegant solutions, and wants to make an impact from day one.

Specifically, you'll be working on a cost optimisation project to track what hosting resources our customers are using and automatically right-size them (either larger or smaller). It's a fast-paced and strategically important project that we hope excites you as much as it excites us.

Who are you?

• A Strong Engineer: You’ve built a solid foundation of software engineering skills and know how to put them to work.
• A Quick Learner: Anaplan moves fast — you’re ready to pick up the skills your team needs and curious enough to explore beyond them.
• Collaborative: You’re a team player who asks for help when needed, gives and takes feedback well, and can explain complex ideas with clarity.
• Hungry & Energised: You have drive, curiosity, and the motivation to achieve great things.
• Confident: You bring your voice and passion to high-energy technical discussions and thrive in an environment where ideas are tested and improved together.

Requirements:

• Experience as a professional software engineering  
• Delivery: A track record of delivering complex projects into production.
• DevOps: Hands-on experience deploying and maintaining services in live environments.

Tech we use

• Rust: We use Rust every day. You don’t need to be an expert yet, but prior exposure will give you a head start.
• Kubernetes: Our services integrate deeply with Kubernetes. You’ll be working with it from your first week.
• Helm: We install our Kubernetes applications via Helm charts so like Kubernetes, you'll be working with it from your first week.
• Grafana: From alerts to dashboards, Grafana is what we use for observability and supporting our services. It doesn't need to be Grafana, but you'll need experience with an observability tool like this.
• Jenkins: We practice continuous build through Jenkins pipelines. Experience with Jenkins or an equivalent tool will help you hit the ground running.
