Spacelift is an infrastructure orchestration platform that manages your entire infrastructure lifecycle—provisioning, configuration, and governance. It integrates with all your infrastructure tooling (e.g., Terraform, OpenTofu, CloudFormation, Pulumi, Ansible) to provide a single integrated workflow so you can deliver secure, cost-effective, and resilient infrastructure quickly.
By automating deployment and configuration, providing developer self-service, golden paths with guardrails, and an OPA policy engine, Spacelift empowers businesses to accelerate developer velocity while maintaining control and governance over their infrastructure. Spacelift offers unrivalled support, no-nonsense pricing, and a range of deployment models to fit your specific needs.
Spacelift was founded in 2020 by Marcin Wyszynski, a long-time DevOps practitioner, and Pawel Hytry, a successful entrepreneur. In 2025, Spacelift raised a $51M Series C.
The Team
We work in product teams (8), a team lead, backend and frontend engineers, a UX/UI designer, and a product manager. To move fast and make better decisions, we work closely and pair up on problems and issues. We care about each other. We believe that having Engineers leading the projects and initiatives is the best solution, as our platform is very technical.
- Build and own the platform that powers all of Spacelift - from CI/CD to observability to incident response
- Improve our code delivery pipeline: reduce friction, tighten feedback loops, eliminate flakiness
- Strengthen our SLOs and observability posture - give every team better signals
- Sharpen our on-call experience by improving alert quality, response speed, and postmortem hygiene
- Optimise platform cost and scaling behaviour across workloads and regions
- Own developer experience internally: from local dev to debugging production
- Keep learning about our problem space
- You build it, you run it - you will also be part of the on-call rotation
