Let’s scale what’s possible! With you!
We’re one of Germany’s fastest-growing B2B scale-ups. On a mission to bring full market transparency to the world of industrial spare parts. Our software redefines how pricing is done in manufacturing.
To make this happen, we’re building an architecture that’s scalable by default, cloud-native at its core, and ready to support bold experimentation - without compromising reliability or security.
We’re not looking for someone to just operate the cloud - we want someone to help shape it.
Join us as a (Senior) Cloud Engineer (f/m/d) and help us push boundaries — in tech and in business.
Your Mission
- Own and lead complex cloud deployments in AWS, from planning to operations
- Help build a cloud platform that reduces complexity and elevates developer experience across the engineering org
- Drive architectural decisions and evolve our cloud platform to meet product and scale needs
- Collaborate closely with the Cloud Architect and cross-functional teams to define the cloud vision and roadmap
- Ensure service quality through automation, observability, and high-quality delivery
- Identify, solve, and prevent reliability and performance issues in a fast-moving production environment
- Be a mentor for others and a multiplier for great engineering
Your Skills
- 5+ years of hands-on cloud engineering experience in AWS or other hyperscaler environments
- Deep understanding of cloud-native patterns: autoscaling, stateless services, managed infrastructure
- Expertise in Terraform, CI/CD pipelines, and container orchestration (EKS, ECS or similar)
- Strong security mindset: IAM, compliance, least privilege, encryption
- Fluent in scripting (Python, Bash, or similar) and experienced in automating everything
- Familiarity with modern observability stacks (CloudWatch, Datadog, Prometheus etc.)
- Experience with microservices, APIs, and event-driven architecture is a big plus
- Startup energy, a pragmatic mindset, and a healthy dose of curiosity
- You aim for technical excellence, but you know that shipping 80% today often beats chasing 101% forever
