About the role

  • DevOps Engineer operating Kubernetes environments and AWS platforms for internal teams in Germany. Contributing to cloud-native initiatives with a focus on automation and security.

Responsibilities

  • Operate and evolve Kubernetes environments and deployment approaches using Helm and Kustomize
  • Work with AWS as the runtime platform, including EKS and security practices
  • Maintain and integrate key AWS services according to platform needs: S3, EFS, RDS
  • Build and improve CI/CD automation, preferably in Azure DevOps, so releases are repeatable and predictable
  • Introduce and maintain GitOps processes with Argo CD for consistent and traceable deployments
  • Maintain Infrastructure as Code with Terraform for reproducible environments and controlled changes
  • Apply Crossplane as an IaC/platform provisioning approach when the goal is standardization and infrastructure self-service
  • Strengthen platform security with network security concepts (controls, segmentation, rules, policies) and secure operations across environments
  • Implement and enforce Kubernetes security and governance policies using Kyverno (policy-as-code, admission control, compliance guardrails)
  • Operate and evolve the service mesh layer with Istio (traffic management, mTLS, policy enforcement, and observability signals where applicable)
  • Maintain identity: Keycloak as an Identity Provider and identity federation concepts (integrations, trust, identity flows)
  • Ensure visibility and operational readiness through monitoring in Grafana

Requirements

  • You think in automation: processes become pipelines / GitOps / IaC, not “procedures”
  • You have production discipline: stability, security, auditability, and clear ownership accountability
  • Troubleshooting approach: facts (metrics/logs/symptoms) → hypothesis → change → verification

Benefits

  • Work on real cloud-native initiatives for internal teams in Germany, with the flexibility to contribute where the need is highest
  • A small team, short decision paths, and real involvement in tooling and standards
