About the role
- As a DevOps Engineer, you ensure our processes are efficient, automated, and future-proof.
- You accompany the entire development lifecycle — from the initial idea through implementation to production rollout.
- NixOS: You bring extensive knowledge of NixOS, especially in system-wide configuration management and declarative infrastructure.
- Terranix: You use Terranix to combine NixOS with Terraform and to extend and automate Infrastructure-as-Code (IaC) approaches.
- Colmena: You can use Colmena efficiently to orchestrate cluster deployments and roll out configuration changes safely and in a coordinated manner.
Requirements
- Practical experience over a purely academic background: A university degree is not required — what matters is that you have independently made technology decisions and delivered projects.
- Technical expertise & decisiveness: You can understand, structure, and implement complex technical concepts.
- Communication skills: You can communicate confidently in technical discussions in German and English and represent yourself clearly and confidently in both languages — with teammates and clients.
- Analytical and solution-oriented mindset: You are passionate about innovative technologies and can apply them purposefully in consulting and development processes.
Benefits
- Genuine remote-first culture: Whether in our Munich office, at home, or anywhere else in Germany — with us you can work from anywhere.
- Variable compensation components are paid flexibly as one-time bonuses upon achieving targets or through sales and consulting successes, for example for acquiring customers, unlocking potential, or accelerating project completions.
- Home office hardware: If you need equipment for your home office, let us know — you may of course use your own hardware as well.
- A team of experienced experts & senior engineers is always by your side — whether for a virtual coffee in the afternoon or to answer questions.
- Everyone is part of management: Employees all have the opportunity to make important decisions and help shape the company.
- A culture of responsibility and equal footing from day one.
- Urban Sports Club membership & team events on top, so you don't neglect your free time or your connection with the team.
