Customer Success Manager - Europe

📖About Qovery

Back in 2019, our founders saw a gap: cloud infrastructure was supposed to simplify software delivery, yet teams were still spending too much time operating it. Kubernetes was becoming the standard, but running it well remained hard.

They built Qovery to change that.

Today, Qovery is a Kubernetes management platform built for the AI era. We help teams run production workloads across clusters and clouds without building and maintaining everything themselves. Our users focus on shipping products; Qovery handles the complexity of Kubernetes operations.

We are a remote-first team, working with engineers and platform teams across the world, solving concrete production problems at scale.

Qovery is backed by Crane VC, Speedinvest, and IRIS, alongside founders and co-founders from Datadog and Docker. We benefit from deep operational experience in building and scaling developer infrastructure companies.

We move fast and set a high bar. The infrastructure ecosystem changes quickly, and we design our product to keep up with real-world constraints: scale, security, cost, and reliability.

Ownership matters here. People are trusted to make decisions and are accountable for results. Information is shared openly. Mistakes are discussed and fixed. And when life interferes (as it sometimes does), we adapt.

Imposter syndrome shouldn't stop you from applying. Strong teams are built from different backgrounds, experiences, and ways of thinking. If our mission resonates and you believe you can contribute, we'd like to talk.
