System Engineer | Web Hosting | Based in Lithuania
Join the team building an AI-first company.
Hostinger serves more than 5.5 million clients across 150 countries, but we're still excited about what we're creating next.
AI is changing how we build products, support customers, work together, and solve problems. It helps us move faster, spend less time on repetitive work, and focus on bigger ideas.
If you want your work to influence both what we build and how we build it, we'd like to meet you.

Your role at Hostinger
As System Engineer, you'll work alongside other system, software, and network engineers who care deeply about performance, simplicity, and resilience - together designing, running, and evolving systems that don't just work, but stay fast and dependable under pressure. This isn't a role where you follow playbooks - you'll write them, digging into the details, automating what slows the team down, and sharing what you learn so everyone gets stronger.

Your day-to-day
Design, develop, and implement new features that make our hosting platform faster, more reliable, and easier to scale.
Deploy and run infrastructure using Infrastructure as Code and automation, because manual work doesn’t scale, and neither do shortcuts.
Operate and observe systems through real metrics: availability, latency, performance, capacity, reliability - understanding the “why” behind every graph.
Refine and tune systems to eliminate bottlenecks, simplify complexity, and improve reliability without adding overhead.
Improve monitoring and alerting, aiming to catch symptoms before they turn into outages.
Share knowledge with other engineers - guiding, reviewing, and helping raise the bar for how we build and maintain reliable systems.
What will help you succeed
Strong Linux OS experience (3+ years).
Ansible proficiency - you trust automation, and know how to do it right.
Programming or scripting skills in Python or Go (bonus if both).
Experience managing and optimizing web servers, databases, and caching systems.

Nice-to-have
