We are looking for a skilled DevOps Engineer with determination and a self-starting attitude to join our team of developers and scientists. You'll have freedom to operate in our SaaS infrastructure development. You will work with various other experts, all with their own specific expertise and all contributing to making our product a success.

As we are currently still a small team, there are many shared responsibilities in the upkeep and development of the technical infrastructure. It is expected that you will take part in the work and decisions regarding both the SaaS and office infrastructures.

**What are some of the challenges we are facing?**

- Efficient and resilient cluster infrastructure
- Dealing with different cloud providers
- Effective monitoring / resource usage metrics
- Backup strategies
- Infrastructure hardening
- Definition of security policies

**For you?**
Our team is talented, diverse, and enjoys the support of a well-defined growth plan. You’ll enjoy working in an inspiring environment with great colleagues and flexible working hours. Having started out as a fast-paced start-up, we’re growing into becoming a scale-up company. We have entrepreneurial mindset and keep our "small company work ethic". Whether working together in our office at the Science Park, or remotely from our homes, we like to get things done. A competitive salary and secondary benefits are all part of a package that makes it attractive to join our tech-company. Please be aware that an EU work permit is mandatory, and we do not offer relocation.
