It consists of a team of highly motivated software engineers focused on cutting-edge, security-focused shared components, and a DevSecOps platform that supports the entire lifecycle of our products. This is a dynamic and evolving team, offering exciting challenges and opportunities for growth.

This position combines both software and systems engineering to build and run IT infrastructure. You will keep an eye on the capacity and performance of our systems, ensuring that they run reliably and have an appropriate uptime for our needs. We value fast and incremental improvements.

• Liaison with secunet's internal IT to keep strategy aligned
• Document your work, both for users of the infrastructure as well as for fellow developers
• Ensure the security of our services using modern technologies

Qualifications:

• Excellent problem-solving and communication skills
• Expertise in architecting and operating on-premises deployments
• Extensive experience with the NixOS ecosystem

• Proven skills in contributing to open source
• Programming experience in Rust, Python, Go, or similar languages
• Ability to execute autonomously in alignment with other teams in the broader Software Factory
• Familiarity with the German language is an advantage but not strictly required

• We value open communication, innovation, and teamwork, fostering a collaborative environment with flat hierarchies.
• Flexible working hours and remote work options support a balance between professional and personal life.
• Opportunities for professional development, including coaching, mentoring, and leadership pathways.
