Your role in the team

  • Our measurement technology supports customers in industries such as building services, manufacturing, pharmaceuticals, food, and environmental monitoring. A growing share of measurement data is consolidated in our cloud solutions, where it is analyzed and documented for regulated environments. To enable development teams to bring products to market quickly, they need a reliable developer platform. This is where you come in: you ensure that the platform remains stable, secure, and continuously evolving.
  • You will take on the following responsibilities:
  • Ensuring the stable and efficient operation of the Testo Cloud platform and Kubernetes environments, including setting up and maintaining monitoring and alerting to detect incidents early.
  • Managing incidents from troubleshooting through root cause analysis to implementing lasting improvements.
  • Further development of the Developer Platform as a self-service offering for development teams, including co-designing the target architecture, providing reusable infrastructure modules (e.g., Terraform, Ansible), and optimizing CI/CD pipelines.
  • Ensuring the security of the cloud applications running on the platform.
  • Supporting development teams with onboarding, platform usage, and technical questions.
  • Coordination of the small team, including technical alignment, task allocation and prioritization across operations, incidents, roadmap items and requests, as well as medium-term planning of platform topics and team capacity.

Our expectations of you

Qualifications

  • Very good written and spoken English and German skills.
  • Willingness to regularly take on on-call duties outside normal working hours (with flexibility to work from home; call-outs are compensated separately).

Experience

  • Several years of hands-on experience in cloud, DevOps, or platform engineering, as well as operating cloud platforms.
  • Experience with at least one major cloud provider (AWS, Azure, or GCP), particularly in networking, identity, and storage.
  • Experience with monitoring, logging, and alerting, as well as structured incident management, from troubleshooting to root cause analysis.
  • Experience working in agile teams using Scrum or Kanban, as well as initial experience coordinating small teams in a subject-matter capacity.
