Technical leadership & design: As the primary technical contact for project owners, you work with the team to develop precise, detailed technical designs, including for upcoming cloud migration projects.
Cloud migration & hyperscaler expertise: You actively drive the migration of our infrastructure to the cloud and bring deep, hands-on experience with at least one major hyperscaler platform (AWS, Azure, or GCP) — from architecture decisions to concrete implementation.
Team development & mentoring: Through targeted mentorship and knowledge transfer, you ensure the professional growth of the entire team and actively shape team structures.
End-to-end responsibility & quality: You manage complex projects from requirements to successful delivery, proactively proposing improvements to ensure long-term system and code quality.
On-call rotation: Joining our newly introduced on-call rotation is a welcome opportunity for you to share responsibility with the team for the stability and availability of our platform.

Professional experience & hyperscaler expertise: At least 5 years of professional experience in a DevOps environment, combined with deep, practical experience on at least one hyperscaler platform (AWS, Azure, or GCP).
Kubernetes & container technologies: Confident handling of Kubernetes (whether self-managed or on managed services such as EKS, AKS, or GKE) as well as solid knowledge of Docker and hosting highly available SaaS products.
Cloud migration experience: Upcoming cloud migrations are familiar territory for you. You have supported or independently executed migrations and are familiar with the typical challenges and solutions.
Tech stack & quality awareness: General interest in the JavaScript ecosystem; experience with Node.js, Vue, MongoDB, or Redis is a plus. A strong quality and security mindset and awareness of current technology standards are a given for you.
Solution orientation & ownership: With intrinsic curiosity and a startup mentality, you take ownership of topics end-to-end, keep an overview even in fast iterations, and drive them to structured completion.
Communication & on-call readiness: Open, clear communication at all levels is natural to you, as is the willingness to be part of a structured on-call rotation.

Excellence & ownership: Take full responsibility for your areas with a focus on quality, impact, and sustainable results.
Purpose & scope to shape: Contribute your ideas, shape your area of responsibility, and help build the future and long-term success of our company.
Openness and equal footing: We live open communication, direct exchange, and collaboration on equal terms at all levels.
Continuous growth: Whether through training, cross-functional learning formats, or individual mentoring, you will continue to grow professionally and personally.
Flexible working, celebrating together: We offer benefits that make a difference — workation options, team and company events, and subsidies for lunch, internet, and the Deutschlandticket to help you focus on what matters.
Equal opportunities: Not a buzzword but our stance — we welcome applications from people regardless of origin, identity, sexual orientation, or disability. At equal qualification, applications from people with severe disabilities will be given special consideration.
