About the role

  • DevOps Engineer building and owning a scalable event streaming platform for data analytics. Working at Statista, a leading business data platform, with hybrid and international team environments.

Responsibilities

  • Design and operate a company-wide event bus built on Kafka, evolving our existing real-time event monitoring system into a scalable, self-service platform
  • Define and maintain all infrastructure as code using AWS CDK across ECS, Lambda, DynamoDB, VPC, IAM, and CloudWatch
  • Build and maintain CI/CD pipelines with zero-downtime deployments and robust rollback capabilities
  • Create self-service tooling and documentation so engineering teams can independently onboard to the platform
  • Instrument the platform with Datadog, define SLOs, and build runbooks that make operations manageable at scale
  • Embed security best practices from day one: IAM least-privilege, secrets management, and network segmentation

Requirements

  • 3+ years in DevOps, Platform Engineering, or SRE
  • Hands-on Kafka experience is a must — consumer groups, topic design, partitioning strategies, and operational troubleshooting
  • Strong AWS expertise across compute, networking, storage, security, and monitoring
  • Proficient with Infrastructure as Code — AWS CDK preferred, Terraform or CloudFormation also considered
  • Experience building CI/CD pipelines (GitHub Actions, GitLab CI, Jenkins, or similar)
  • Comfortable with Docker, Python scripting, and Linux administration
  • Kubernetes/EKS, Datadog, and FinOps experience are a plus

Benefits

  • Work from abroad up to 30 calendar days a year
  • Hybrid work and flex-time
  • International team and social events
  • Subsidized urban mobility and access to fitness and wellness options
  • Free access to Langdock and all its great features
  • Career and training opportunities
  • Attractive locations and modern offices
  • Mental health support with OpenUp
