Job Zusammenfassung
In dieser Rolle bist du verantwortlich für die Entwicklung und Wartung unserer Cloud-Infrastruktur, führst CI/CD-Pipelines ein und mentorst das Team in Best Practices der Softwarebereitstellung und Automatisierung.
Job Technologien
Deine Rolle im Team
- As our DevOps Lead, you will own the infrastructure, delivery pipelines, and reliability of our cloud-native platform, and lead how we build, deploy, and operate software as we scale.
- You will report directly to the CTO.
- This is a technical leadership role with a meaningful hands-on component: roughly 60% of your time on infrastructure engineering, automation, and technical decision-making, and 40% on team leadership, mentoring, planning, and cross-functional collaboration.
- Lead and mentor engineers on infrastructure and operational best practices, supporting a culture of ownership, transparency, and continuous learning.
- Own our GCP infrastructure-as-code (Terraform), our CI/CD pipelines (GitHub Actions), and our GitOps delivery model (Flux CD, Helm, Kubernetes), making releases fast, safe, and boring.
- Drive our observability practice across Prometheus, Grafana, and GCP Cloud Monitoring, turning alerts and dashboards into real reliability and reducing toil through automation.
- Identify and reduce infrastructure tech debt, lead the evolution of our IaC strategy, and drive our migration to a managed secrets solution and stronger platform security.
- Champion the team's use of modern AI development tools, helping engineers integrate them into their daily workflow while maintaining high standards for quality and operational integrity.
Unsere Erwartungen an dich
Qualifikationen
- You are highly proficient with Terraform and treat infrastructure as a first-class, version-controlled codebase.
- You have built and operated CI/CD pipelines (GitHub Actions or similar) and understand GitOps delivery (Flux CD is a strong plus).
- You have run production monitoring and alerting stacks (Prometheus/Grafana or equivalent) and know what good reliability looks like.
- You understand the fundamentals of networking, distributed computing, and asynchronous messaging, and you automate with Bash and Python before repeating yourself.
- You take responsibility beyond your immediate task and dig deep into the stack to find and fix the source of a problem.
- You're hands-on with AI engineering tools (Claude Code, Copilot, agentic workflows) and have opinions on using them well.
- You communicate fluently in English, both verbally and in writing.
- You are legally entitled to work in Germany and do not require visa sponsorship.
Erfahrung
- You have 7+ years of professional experience in DevOps, SRE, or platform engineering, including 2+ years leading engineers through mentoring, code reviews, knowledge sharing, and team development.
- You have deep, hands-on experience running production workloads on a major cloud (GCP preferred) with Kubernetes, Helm, and Docker.
- You have hands-on experience with distributed tracing and APM (OpenTelemetry, Jaeger, or similar) and can introduce it to deepen observability across our services.
Unser Angebot
- You will have direct influence on technical decisions, architecture, and the growth of our engineering team.
- Work hybrid from our Berlin office, combining focused remote days with regular in-person time for workshops, planning, and collaboration.
- Join a diverse, multicultural team with an open office culture and a few four-legged colleagues.
- Once a year, we take the whole team on a trip abroad. The trip combines team bonding, training, and the chance to live our mission: making vacation smart.
