A little background
Who exactly are we?
Our story is the one of a group of Cloud and technology enthusiasts who always had a clear goal: make things much easier for tech companies. Since no one was really stepping up to fill that gap in Spain’s Cloud sector, we figured—why not build our own product?
We started small, and now we’re over 130 people and still growing. Today, Jotelulu’s products are used in thousands of offices and businesses in retail, construction, industry, hospitality, transportation, and more, across over 8 countries in Europe and the Americas.
Every step we take is driven by the desire to do things better, bring something new, and shake things up—because that’s the only way innovation truly has meaning.
The challenge
What are we up to these days?
After years of growth and continuous improvement, Jotelulu is at a key moment. We’re scaling fast across Europe and Latin America, expanding our product portfolio—Servers, Remote Desktop, DRaaS, File/Object Storage, and Marketplace—while strengthening our partner-first model.
As our infrastructure continues to grow, ensuring reliability, security, and performance across our storage layers is becoming more critical than ever. That’s why we’re reinforcing our Infrastructure Team with a Storage Engineer who can take ownership of the implementation, optimization, and administration of our storage systems.
That’s where you come in.
