Your Challenge

• Own the migration of our CI/CD from Bitbucket + Bamboo to GitHub Actions, building reusable pipelines integrated with JFrog Artifactory and Devin Cloud
• Take on a longer-term architectural mandate: planning and building new infrastructure from the ground up - reverse proxy, container orchestration, message brokers, and more - while owning platform reliability, observability and security
• You act as the technical interface between our software department and IT to ensure efficient, secure and scalable development and operational processes
• In close collaboration with your agile team, you tackle technical and conceptual challenges and jointly develop suitable solutions and ideas for our current and future plant software and its surrounding components
• Among other responsibilities, you ensure the timely completion of all assigned tasks

The skills needed

• Strong Linux administration and shell scripting, plus comfort with Docker/containers
• Familiarity with artifact repositories (JFrog Artifactory, Nexus, or similar)
• Interest in AI-assisted dev tooling
• A pragmatic, ownership mindset - comfortable driving a migration and making decisions
• Any of the following will be considered an advantage: Bamboo/Bitbucket → GitHub Actions migration experience, Kubernetes/Podman, reverse proxy tuning (nginx/Traefik/HAProxy), message brokers (Kafka/RabbitMQ/MQTT), IaC (Terraform/Ansible), or monitoring (Prometheus/Grafana/Loki)
