Mid-Level Senior Cloud Infrastructure Engineer (fmx)

Hi! We are verkstedt.

Were a distributed team of software developers passionate about delivering high-quality applications with a strong focus on performance scalability and robust solutions that dont bother us during a nice board game session on a Saturday night.

We specialize in digital healthcare and retail media - building products and services in German healthcare that make a real difference.

We are looking for a Cloud Infrastructure Engineer to join our team.

Youll have the opportunity to shape and evolve our cloud setup focusing on code not bureaucracy. We value pragmatic solutions over dogma.

Tasks

As Cloud Infrastructure Engineer you will design the systems that keep our applications running smoothly and communicating effectively with the team is a big part of it.

Your tasks will involve a combination of the following:

• Managing our multi-cloud setup across GCP AWS and European providers including managed Kubernetes services.
• Exploring and evaluating new tools and services to improve reliability and developer experience.
• Bringing fresh perspectives on tooling automation and architecture to the team.
• Working on greenfield projects in the healthcare sector.
• Contributing to open source projects or collaborating with the team building fun projects during our Open Fridays (usually on a Wednesday) :)

Requirements

Our primary requirement is a genuine passion for building reliable well-automated systems with clean code and an eagerness to collaborate with the team.

Coupled with significant experience building cloud setups using Terraform and Kubernetes (or a similar stack) youre the kind of professional were excited to invite for a coffee chat!

What were looking for:

• Strong experience with cloud platforms (GCP AWS or similar)
• Proficiency with Infrastructure as Code (Terraform or similar)
• Experience with Kubernetes and container orchestration
• Familiarity with CI/CD pipelines and automation
• Scripting skills for automation (Python Bash or similar)
• Understanding of monitoring and observability practices

We embrace AI tools to improve our workflows - and were looking for someone who shares that mindset.

As someone whos been around the block you should be a great communicator who finds pragmatic solutions for complex problems - and accepts that there are always multiple ways to achieve a goal. No one should be afraid of failures; as a team we only try not to repeat them.

Fluency in English is crucial for our international team. And if you can sprinkle in some German thats a delightful bonus we appreciate.

Benefits

• A competitive salary
• Flexible working hours and hybrid work (mainly from home with one office day per week in Berlin or Cologne)
• Learning budget for conferences courses and books
• Choose the gear you like
• Relocation support if youre moving to Berlin or Cologne
• Minimal meetings - we take planning seriously and spend our time coding not in meetings

Cloud infrastructure doesnt build itself so we make sure to keep the office stocked with coffee fruits Club Mate & snacks. We hold regular team events dinners game nights chess evenings and board games at the office plus seasonal whole-company events like go-kart racing and escape rooms.

If this sounds like you get in touch! Simply fill in the application form below and well get back to you within a week.

Well start with a quick chat via Zoom (or whatever works) to get to know each other and answer any questions you might have.

If were all keen to continue well invite you for a coding demo - a chance for a deeper conversation about infrastructure and your experience.

And thats basically all the application process there is.
