Qargo is a cloud-based (SaaS) Transport Management Platform. We are a scale-up based in London and Ghent (Belgium), rapidly expanding across Europe. The platform is an 'all-in-one system', handling everything from initial order entry to final invoicing. It optimises planning and has a built-in AI feature that automates lengthy manual tasks. Qargo is designed to help modern logistics operations run more efficiently, while increasing profitability and sustainability. We’re looking for a Site Reliability Engineer to join our team in Ghent.

You’ll work on improving our platform’s reliability by building internal tooling, enhancing our deployment systems, and evolving our cloud architecture. Rather than manually operating systems, you’ll focus on reducing operational overhead through automation and engineering solutions. You’ll collaborate closely with backend engineers and other engineering teams to ensure our systems are designed with reliability and scalability in mind from the start. This role offers a strong mix of backend engineering, infrastructure work, and problem-solving, with plenty of ownership and impact on how our platform behaves in production.
