Join our international platform team in Madrid and help application teams expose APIs and connect to AI services securely through a critical shared Kong platform.
This is a hands‑on engineering role, not a pure administration position. You will operate Kong in production, reduce toil through automation and build self‑service paths for API onboarding and policy delivery.
The role suits an experienced engineer who already handles production topics independently and wants to broaden technical ownership. Direct Kong experience is welcome. Experience with another API gateway is equally relevant. What You’ll Build First: Turn Kong AI Gateway into a production‑ready service that gives application teams a secure,



observable and self‑service path to LLM and MCP connectivity. Build the guardrails for policy enforcement, traffic routing, rate limiting, auditability and reliable operations.
What You Will Do

Operate and continuously improve our business‑critical Kong API Gateway across OpenSnd Microsoft Azure, including incidents, changes, upgrades, security, capacity and lifecycle management.
Design and build automation and self‑service capabilities that make API onboarding, policy delivery and platform changes safer, faster and more consistent.
Develop platform services and tooling using APIs, GitOps, CI/CD pipelines and infrastructure as code.
Establish actionable observability across metrics, logs and traces using OpenTelemetry, Prometheus, Grafana and the Elastic Stack, and strengthen API security through policies, certificates, secrets and modern identity standards.
