As a DevOps Engineer (m/f/d) on the DevEx team, your goal is to make the Internal Developer Platform (IDP) as intuitive and efficient as possible for our developers.
You act as the enabler who removes friction from the software delivery process.
You develop features of our IDP that enable teams to quickly and independently bring applications to the cloud.
Depending on where you live, you either work together with your team at our headquarters in Erkrath twice a week or you have the option to work up to 100% remotely.
You design and implement self-service capabilities within our Internal Developer Platform as well as high-performance CI/CD pipelines in GitLab.
You also establish modern deployment workflows using ArgoCD.
You support teams in taking full responsibility for their services — from the initial code commit to stable operation in the cluster.
As a mentor, you actively coach development teams and convey best practices in cloud-native development and deployment strategies.
In addition, you automate application delivery with Helm.
You act as a service-oriented bridge between development and operations and continuously improve the tools used across the developer journey.

You bring several years of professional experience in software development or the DevOps field with a strong focus on automation.
You are proficient with GitLab CI, Helm, Kubernetes, ArgoCD and Terraform / OpenTofu.
You demonstrate a high level of service orientation and strong mentoring skills to effectively transfer knowledge into teams.
You have a passion for simplifying processes and creating self-service infrastructures.
Ideally, you have an interest in databases and want to further develop your skills in this area.
To communicate well within your team, you have very good German skills (C1 or above) and good English skills (B2 or above).

Your working hours and location are as flexible as you are: you can use our modern Multispaces and work on-site, mobile or remotely.
Through hybrid collaboration we promote direct exchange.
With us you can work from abroad for up to 120 calendar days per year as part of a workation — so you can extend your vacation or visit family and friends overseas.
On our internal learning platform you can choose from over 20,000 courses and offers.
Thanks to development plans with concrete content, you can easily plan your further training.
Your health is important to us: that's why we offer health activities and after-work events, such as an individual stress check, back courses or a running group.
We think in an environmentally friendly way: you can lease an e-bike or bicycle. Alternatively, we are happy to support you with a discounted job ticket or a travel allowance.
We take care of your children: we offer daycare places in Erkrath and parent-child offices in our head office.
Working with us means cooperation and collaboration on equal terms — we are team players because we know what we can achieve together.
