Your role in the team

  • You will take on an architecturally challenging role with room to shape things: you will design and operate automated deployment processes for software and infrastructure.
  • Using Infrastructure as Code, CI/CD, and GitOps, you develop reusable solutions for our private cloud and implement them in practice together with the development and security teams.
  • Your focus is on implementing, operating, and continuously improving our DevOps tools and deployment processes.
  • You further develop the associated architecture and turn standards into practical, automated solutions.
  • You further develop the overarching architecture for Infrastructure as Code, CI/CD, GitOps, and automated provisioning, and implement it in reusable modules, pipeline templates, and deployment configurations.
  • You define and implement standards and patterns for GitLab, pipelines, repositories, artifacts, Helm charts, and deployment procedures, and maintain the associated templates and configurations.
  • You implement and operate standardized deployment workflows across different stages and environments, and automate the provisioning and configuration of software and infrastructure.
  • You define architectural requirements for versioning, traceability, rollback, repeatability, and technical approval mechanisms, implement them in deployment processes, and verify that they work as intended.
  • You integrate version control, deployment, observability, and security into a consistent software lifecycle.
  • In doing so, you take into account requirements for availability, scalability, resilience, disaster recovery, and compliance.
  • You analyze and troubleshoot issues in pipelines, automation, and deployments, evaluate monitoring, logging, and tracing data, and reduce technical debt and manual processes.
  • You work closely with Development, IT Operations, Security, and other specialist departments, support the use of standardized deployment processes, and document solutions and operating procedures.

  • Ideally, knowledge of regulatory requirements, such as DORA, BSI standards, and audit requirements.
  • Analytical thinking, decision-making skills, and a structured, quality- and goal-oriented approach to work.
  • You think across disciplines, recognize technical interdependencies, and develop robust solutions to complex requirements.

  • Strong Linux skills, experience with scripting and automation, and a good understanding of networking, storage, virtualization, and private cloud.
  • Practical experience with containers, Kubernetes, and Helm, as well as deploying and troubleshooting applications on cloud-native platforms.
