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 companies.

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 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, Hachette, France TV, Veepee, Copenhagen Municipality, European Central Bank and many more.

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

WHY WE NEED YOU ?

Our growth is driving us to strengthen our Web Cloud – Domains & DNS team to support the development of features across our Domains, DNS, and BookMyName products.

Your mission will be to design, build, and maintain functionalities within this ecosystem in order to support the modernisation of our registrar platform and contribute to the emergence of our new Web Cloud ecosystem.

YOUR FUTURE TEAM

We work in a collaborative and international environment where the diversity of Scalers, combined with a spirit of sharing, helps bring new projects to life every day, advancing our ambitions together.

You will be part of a team of 6 people (5 IC + 1 EM), working closely with a Product Manager and fellow Software Engineers. The team operates in a highly technical environment, balancing feature development with maintenance linked to registrar activity.

You will contribute to a roadmap focused on modernising our registrar, opening new TLDs, and accelerating the development of the Web Cloud ecosystem.

The team values collaboration, resilience, and a positive mindset.
