We're looking for a DevOps Engineer (m/f/d) who owns the infrastructure behind our apps — including our Backend for Frontend architecture in Azure — and the deployment processes that ship them. You will act as an important interface between our various digital products, and you'll value active contribution and the continuous optimisation of existing processes to improve ourselves as a team and, above all, our solutions.
This role can be hired in Koblenz, Amsterdam or Barcelona. The local team needs you onsite at least 3 times a week.
