Jobbeschreibung

We're looking for a hands-on System, Infrastructure and Operations Engineer to keep our people, office, and systems running smoothly. There are growth opportunities into cloud systems, security and DevOps as we scale. You'll be the person who makes sure everything technical just works.

Who is Ethon?

We are the number one Industrial AI Platform. We are a technology leader trusted by global manufacturers to optimize cost, quality, and speed.

The Ethon Platform understands how production processes behave in real-time. It surfaces deviations and explains what drives variation. It guides teams to optimize cost, quality, and speed while keeping operations under control across factories.

As a team, we are multinational, multifaceted, and action-oriented. We are intentional about the principles that guide us every day: create immediate impact and value, play in the top league, and create the best place to work and grow.

What is this job about?

As we grow, the systems and tools our team relies on need an owner. That's you. This is a broad, high-trust role: one day you're setting up a new hire's laptop and fixing a meeting room, the next you're tightening up our AWS access policies or scripting away a recurring annoyance. It's a great fit for someone who likes variety, takes pride in things running reliably, and wants to grow their cloud, infrastructure, and security skills in a place where there's real room to do so.

As our System, Infrastructure and Operations Engineer you will:

• Own the endpoint lifecycle: set up, configure, and manage our laptops (imaging, MDM), and support colleagues across macOS (and Linux/Windows where needed).

• Keep the office running: own our network (WiFi, switching, firewall/VPN) and continuously improve our meeting-room and A/V setups.

• Manage identity and access: provisioning and deprovisioning, SSO/IdP user lifecycle, and keeping permissions clean and tidy.

• Run smooth onboarding and offboarding across our SaaS stack.

• Help with day-to-day operations: vendor and SaaS administration, procurement, corporate cards.

• Grow into infrastructure and platform work over time: AWS company-wide settings, server and monitoring administration (e.g. Grafana, Linux/GPU servers), security improvements, and DevOps automation.

• Spot the things that should be automated — and automate them.

Job requirements

First and foremost, we believe in curious people who are eager to learn and grow. If you like solving practical problems and making systems better, we want to hear from you. Please also reach out if you don't check every box below.

Must-Haves:

• Solid hands-on experience administering and troubleshooting endpoints (laptops, MDM) and supporting non-technical colleagues with patience and clarity.

• Working knowledge of office networking fundamentals (WiFi, switching, firewall/VPN) and the ability to diagnose connectivity issues methodically.

• Experience with identity and access management: user provisioning, SSO/IdP, group and permission management.

• A service mindset: clear communicator who documents solutions and owns problems end-to-end.

• Genuine interest in improving IT processes through automation.

• The motivation to grow into cloud, security, and DevOps topics — even where you're not strong yet today.

Bonus:

• Familiarity with AWS and Google Workspace administration (IAM, account-level config, SSO).

• Security knowledge: endpoint hardening, MFA, basic compliance hygiene.

• Experience with server and infrastructure administration: Linux (incl. GPU servers), monitoring stacks like Grafana.

• Scripting and automation skills (bash, Python) and curiosity about DevOps and CI/CD.

• Familiarity with compliance processes (ISO27001, SOC2)

• Prior startup experience.

Why is Ethon right for you?

We work from our office in the center of Zürich. You will be here at least three days a week, because the hardest problems get solved in person.

Feedback loops are short. Access to founders is direct. People who prove themselves here grow fast and take on real responsibility — and this role in particular has a clear path into deeper infrastructure and security work.

Additionally, we offer:

Performance-based career & growth paths

• A learning and certification budget — we'll actively support you in growing toward credentials like AWS and CKA.

• On-site work with significant scope for flexible schedules

• Competitive compensation including stock options giving you a stake in Ethon's long-term success

• Vacation bonus if you take two consecutive weeks of vacation

• Flexible parental leave

• Learning budget for courses, conferences, and coaching

If this sounds like your kind of work, we would like to meet you.

We're committed to building a team that reflects the diverse world we live in. We encourage applications from all backgrounds, and we especially welcome voices traditionally underrepresented in tech.
