Job Technologies
Your role in the team
- Own and Evolve Our Infrastructure - You take ownership of our AWS and Hetzner environments and evolve them further - everything as Infrastructure as Code, running, scaling, and upgrading our Kubernetes clusters along the way.
- Operate Our Platforms - You keep our webapps, self-hosted tools, and ML stack running in stable, secure production environments, with solid monitoring, logging, and alerting across systems - including observability for LLM-based workloads.
- Keep Us Secure and Compliant - You handle patching, secrets management, access control, and backups, and support audits and certification efforts as part of your routine work.
- Build Paved Roads for Engineers and Data Scientists - You provide the containerization, CI/CD, and deployment tooling that let both teams ship and run their own services - from webapps to RAG pipelines - enabling rather than taking over, as deployment stays a shared responsibility.

Our expectations of you
Qualifications
- IaC and Kubernetes as Your Craft - Infrastructure as Code is your default working mode (OpenTofu/Terraform), backed by solid scripting skills (e.g. Bash, Python) and confidence troubleshooting Kubernetes in production.
- Fluent in the ML/LLM Ecosystem - You're conceptually familiar with RAG architectures, vector databases (e.g., Qdrant), and ML tooling (e.g., MLflow, Langfuse) - enough to speak the data scientists' language and support their infrastructure needs; deep hands-on ML engineering is explicitly not required.
- Enabler Mindset, Pragmatic Approach - You share knowledge through pairing, reviews, and reusable templates, explain trade-offs clearly to any audience, prioritize autonomously, and choose 'good enough' over over-engineered.
Experience
- Production-Grade Cloud Experience - You bring strong hands-on AWS experience (EKS, RDS, EC2, IAM, networking) and are open to hybrid setups including bare-metal/VPS providers like Hetzner.
