Job technologies
Your role in the team
- You are responsible for the IT infrastructure in our Karlsruhe office: network, firewall, VPN, Wi-Fi, and internet connectivity.
- You’ll support Microsoft 365 as well as our Mac and Linux notebooks, which you manage centrally. You’ll also provide support for Windows devices managed by EnBW’s corporate IT.
- You’re the first point of contact when colleagues run into problems.
- Whether it’s a fresh start with us, an internal move, or a departure: you keep access and permissions under control.
- You manage our IT service providers and suppliers as part of your responsibilities and coordinate with EnBW Group IT. This includes obtaining quotes, keeping track of contracts and licenses, and escalating issues when things aren’t working as they should.
- In IT, you implement the security requirements defined by our ISMS.
- You’ll spend about half your time working with our Platform team, for example on our business continuity management or cloud operations.
Our expectations of you
Education
- You have at least 3 years of experience in IT administration. Whether you gained it through vocational training, a degree, or a career change is up to you.
Qualifications
- You’re familiar with networks, firewalls, and VPNs, for example OPNsense, UniFi, NetBird, or IPSec. Knowledge of Azure, Kubernetes, Terraform, or the Grafana stack (Loki, Grafana, Tempo, Mimir) is a plus; you can learn anything else you need with our Platform team.
- You’re familiar with Microsoft 365 and managing macOS and Linux devices (e.g., with Intune or Jamf). It’s even better if you also have experience with identities and permissions (e.g., Entra ID) or administering Jira, Confluence, and AI tools such as Claude.
- You automate recurring tasks and can read and review a script in PowerShell, Bash, or Python before it runs. You also use AI tools, but check what they produce.
- You get up to speed on new topics independently and take action, whether it’s a firewall rule or a laptop that won’t start. Your documentation is so clear that others can take over when you’re away.
- You speak German well because, as the point of contact for all teams, you work closely with your colleagues. You explain technical topics clearly and stay friendly, even when things get hectic.
Experience
- You have independently managed an IT environment and worked with external service providers. Experience with information security in accordance with ISO 27001, business continuity management, or IT emergency planning (e.g. in accordance with BSI 200-4 or ISO 22301) is a plus.
What we offer
- A flexible hybrid work model: 2 days in our modern office in Karlsruhe, with the rest of the week up to you.
- Allowance for your home office furniture.
- Flexibility to organize your working hours (40 hours/week).
- Clear responsibilities and transparent development opportunities through job OKRs.
- Open and constructive exchange within the team through structured in-person team days.
- Fair salary plus a share in the company’s success, as well as 30 days of vacation.
- Contributions toward your retirement savings and capital-forming benefits.
