About IONOS

At IONOS, we don't just manage servers – we shape the digital future for more than 6.2 million customers worldwide with our solutions. As Europe's leading hosting provider and a pioneer in independent cloud solutions, we are building next-generation infrastructure – from sovereign cloud architectures and high-performance GPU clusters to integrated AI automation tools.

What drives us is digital sovereignty for Europe and real impact for small and medium-sized businesses (SMBs) as well as large enterprises. We work in agile teams, rely on transparent structures, and believe that excellence and innovation only emerge through true team spirit.

Ready for your next step? Become part of IONOS and grow with us.

We are looking for experienced Cloud Operations Engineers with strong backgrounds in Linux, Windows, networking, and cloud environments to join our Customer Operations team.

You will support our Business and Enterprise customers across the full lifecycle of incident handling from initial intake and root cause analysis through to full service restoration. You bring a customer-first mindset and a strong drive to solve complex problems. While we receive requests directly from customers, we operate as an L2/L3 team. You are comfortable managing multiple tasks simultaneously and can set clear priorities even under pressure.

We operate 24/7 across three shifts. You are comfortable participating in shift rotation and being scheduled accordingly. Some of our work touches sensitive areas; you are willing to undergo an extended security vetting process (SÜ2). Our customers communicate in both German and English, and you are equally confident in both.

Tasks

• Act as both technical advisor and ops engineer for Enterprise customers in complex, multi-layered environments
• Analyse customer workloads, debug complex incidents, and deliver lasting resolutions or effective workarounds
• Automate recurring tasks and problems using scripts, tooling, and AI-assisted solutions
• Collaborate with Development and Sales teams to improve overall service quality and platform stability
• Work in security-sensitive environments under strict compliance and regulatory requirements
• Monitor cloud infrastructure proactively and respond decisively when anomalies arise

Qualifications

• Several years of experience operating cloud infrastructure, Linux, networking, virtualisation (QEMU/KVM), containers (Kubernetes), storage systems, and web APIs
• Strong customer-first mindset with a genuine drive to find solutions
• Enthusiasm for root cause analysis; log files, traces, metrics and hands‑on troubleshooting
• Solid network debugging skills across LAN, WAN, VPN, DNS, and DHCP
• Familiarity with S3 and storage concepts (file, object, block)
• Experience with monitoring and alerting tools such as Prometheus, Grafana, and OpsGenie
• Knowledge of common development and deployment tooling: Bash, Python, Ansible, Terraform, Git
• Experience with ticketing and documentation systems (Jira, Confluence, or similar)
• Scripting and software development skills; experience using AI tools in this context is a plus
• Willingness to undergo extended security vetting (SÜ2)
• Fluency in German and English
• At some locations a subsidized canteen and various free drinks.
• Modern office space with very good transport connections.
• Various employee discounts for activities and products.
• Employee events such as summer and winter parties, as well as workshops.
• Numerous training and development opportunities.
• Various health offers, such as sports and health courses.
