About The Role

We are seeking a highly skilled DevOps Engineer to join our dynamic team. In this role, you will be instrumental in shaping and maintaining our infrastructure, ensuring the reliable operation of our Python-based applications and containerized environments. Your primary responsibility will be to automate and optimize our infrastructure using Infrastructure as Code (IaC) principles, with a focus on Ansible.

• Providing IT support and managing service requests: Act as a central point for technical inquiries, handling and resolving tickets at 2nd and 3rd levels via ITSM tools such as Jira and ServiceNow.
• Managing containerized environments: Oversee the operation of Docker and Docker-Compose deployments for static applications and utilize Nomad for more dynamic service orchestration.
• Developing and maintaining CI/CD pipelines: Build and optimize GitLab CI/CD workflows to support the deployment and operation of Python applications (FastAPI, Airflow) and Vue.js frontends.
• Monitoring system health and stability: Administer Linux servers, utilize Prometheus, Grafana, and Greylog to monitor system performance, identify bottlenecks, and ensure high availability.
• Supporting process integration: Assist in managing Docker-based applications such as KIDICAP and collaborate with database teams working with Oracle and PostgreSQL to ensure seamless data operations.

Benefits

• Flexible working arrangements including up to three days of remote work per week and flexible working hours.
• Comprehensive onboarding and ongoing training opportunities, including an annual budget for courses and certifications to enhance your skillset.
• Secure employment with a permanent contract, 30 days of paid vacation, and additional paid days off during Christmas, New Year, your birthday, and a half-day on Gründonnerstag.
• Competitive salary based on TVöD Bund, supplemented with Christmas bonuses, performance bonuses, and meal allowances.
• Additional social benefits such as a company pension scheme, asset-building options, bike leasing, and free parking—including EV charging stations.
• State-of-the-art technology and workstations to ensure efficient and frustration-free work processes.
• A vibrant team culture with regular events like barbecues, company outings, summer parties, and holiday celebrations fostering community and engagement.
