Platform.shAbout Upsun (formerly Platform.sh)
Upsun is the cloud application platform humans and robots love. It is built for today’s hybrid teams, where AI agents write and test code and humans focus on solving the problems that really matter. Developers, DevOps engineers, and platform teams use Upsun to build, ship, and scale confidently without wrestling with backend infrastructure. We give you your time back. You get:
- Predictable performance, even at scale
- Secure, compliant environments by default
- Real-time observability and profiling built in
- Cloning, configuration, and provisioning in seconds
- AI-ready features that plug directly into your stack
The name says it all. "Up" means uptime, reliability, and acceleration. "Sun" reflects our follow-the-sun-support, a 24x7, globally distributed support team keeping the lights on while you rest. Our core belief is that software should power brighter solutions and greater innovation.
Upsunners are a remote, global workforce, and we thrive in a multicultural team. We are committed to open source and an open, welcoming environment. Our team spans the globe and the experience spectrum.
What's our commonality, our cultural fabric? A curious spirit and a thirst for knowledge; an eagerness for innovative ideas and cultures. We believe we can build anything together in an environment that frees you to do your best work.
Our values:
We make a positive impact.
✨ We aim for the stars.

You thrive in the "grey areas" of a scaling company, navigating the complexities of international remote work with empathy and data-driven precision. Whether you are coaching a first-time manager, designing a global performance framework, or leading a transformation project, your work directly influences the culture and success of our organization.
