  • Work in a hybrid infrastructure environment (cloud and on-premises), managing complex software deployments at scale.
  • Bring a software-operations mindset to monitor, maintain and improve software availability, including reliable updates, low latency and operational efficiency.
  • Apply and extend your experience in PLC or robot programming to help the team transition existing solutions to a fully flexible Software-Defined Manufacturing process.
  • Serve as a bridge between digital product delivery and physical logistics and manufacturing systems, ensuring alignment and integration.
  • Help define, monitor and evolve SLAs/SLOs as well as other key KPIs such as OEE for critical systems.

  • You possess practical experience in several key areas of modern software development, including infrastructure, observability, testing, deployment pipelines (including quality assurance), and scaling.
  • You have operated and supported large-scale software systems in cloud and non-cloud environments (on-premises), or PLC and robot systems in a manufacturing or logistics facility.
  • You have worked in companies with strong operational cultures, ideally in logistics or manufacturing — understanding the commercial impact of system downtime.
  • You are proficient with most of the following technologies: Kotlin / Spring Boot, Kubernetes, Linux, PostgreSQL; Python / Bash is a plus; OPC-UA / PLC (e.g. TIA) / robot programming (e.g. KRL).

  • Experience with Azure is a bonus.
  • You are familiar with monitoring and alerting practices for production systems.
