We are looking for a Senior Platform Engineer to join our team on a full-time basis.

In this hybrid role based in Germany, you will help us strengthen the digital infrastructure that enables our project teams to deliver reliable, cloud-native applications. We value a collaborative environment where technical excellence meets a commitment to public service.
Responsibilities
- Drive the innovation and optimization of our platform infrastructure by developing internal tools and refining our Infrastructure-as-Code setups using Terraform, ArgoCD, Helm, and Kustomize.
- Foster collaboration and technical enablement across teams by creating comprehensive documentation, managing platform roadmaps, and providing expert guidance on self-service solutions.
- Partner closely with project teams to identify technical challenges, manage technical debt, and ensure our Kubernetes clusters remain performant, secure, and cost-efficient.
Requirements
- Extensive hands-on experience in Platform Engineering, DevOps, or SRE, with deep knowledge of cloud infrastructure and container orchestration.
- Strong proficiency in programming languages such as Go, Python, or Java, alongside a solid understanding of Linux system administration and networking principles.
- A product-oriented mindset that prioritizes the needs of developers, combined with the ability to communicate complex technical concepts clearly to diverse audiences.
- Fluency in English (C1 level) and a strong command of German, as both languages are used in our daily operations.

- Flexible working arrangements, including the option for remote work and flexible hours to help you balance your professional and personal life.
- A commitment to hybrid collaboration, allowing you to choose your preferred operating system and work in a way that best suits your needs.
