Site Reliability Engineer (SRE) – Kubernetes/Platform - Berlin
If you're an experienced SRE who enjoys working close to the infrastructure and shaping how platforms evolve, this is a role with real ownership and impact.
The company is investing heavily in its platform - with a clear focus on Kubernetes, automation, and building a more scalable, modern infrastructure across a hybrid environment.
This isn't a "plug into an existing system" role. You'll be part of defining how things are built going forward.
Why this role stands out
- High level of ownership across infrastructure and platform decisions
- Strong focus on Kubernetes and modern platform engineering
- Hybrid setup combining on-prem and cloud environments
- Opportunity to influence architecture, tooling, and engineering standards
- A stable environment with long-term investment into technology
What you'll be working on
- Building and improving Kubernetes-based platforms
- Working across infrastructure, networking, and system reliability
- Driving automation and configuration management (Ansible and similar)
- Improving monitoring, performance, and system resilience
- Supporting the evolution towards a more scalable, API-driven environment
What they're looking for
- Strong experience in Linux-based systems and infrastructure
- Hands-on experience with Kubernetes
- Solid understanding of infrastructure fundamentals (networking, storage, virtualisation)
- Experience with automation tools (Ansible highly relevant)
- Cloud exposure (e.g. GCP) is a plus, not essential
- Fluent English
This role is ideal for someone who enjoys getting into the detail of systems, but also wants to have a say in how things are built and improved over time.
Hybrid working (around 3 days onsite) in Berlin or Frankfurt.
