About Celonis Labs:

Celonis Labs is an independent R&D unit within Celonis. We look ahead, for Celonis. We go out and identify new business models and validate their potential. We conceptualize what’s new and what’s next. Our inspiration stems from untapped potential in process mining and execution management as well as adjacent markets.

We are seeking a talented Senior or Staff DevOps Engineer to join our team at Celonis.

The Role:

As a Senior/Staff DevOps Engineer, you will bring your expertise in DevOps engineering to our innovative projects and continuously evolving concepts. While we are primarily looking for a DevOps Engineer, we expect you to have a baseline knowledge and willingness to expand into other areas such as Backend, Frontend, and Data/ML Engineering. You will have the opportunity to work with cutting-edge cloud technology, stay on top of trends, and drive projects with an ever-increasing degree of independence. This is a unique opportunity for talented engineers to push their boundaries and think big.

Responsibilities:

• Innovate beyond our existing products and bring new ideas to life for Celonis.

• Work as part of our engineering team to implement projects with a focus on infrastructure and deployment.

• Improve and maintain our team's cloud infrastructure on AWS and GCP.

• Identify and deploy services required for our projects.

• Own our CI/CD pipelines and ensure that our code is deployed.

• Implement observability and monitoring for operations, with very rare occurrences of out-of-hours work.

• Set standards for DevOps and coach other engineers in the team.

• Participate in adjacent areas of software engineering, such as backend development.

• Participate in testing our work with selected customers to gather feedback.

• Learn and grow, not only in technical expertise but also in any other necessary aspects of bringing a new idea to life. We offer amazing training that will have a lasting impact on your skills and career.

• Expand your knowledge beyond DevOps engineering to gain a holistic understanding of the things we create. Embrace other areas like backend or frontend development and Machine Learning.

• Brainstorm with the entire Celonis Labs team, research potential solutions, and ultimately bring them to life.

The qualifications you need:

• A bachelor's or master's degree in a relevant technical field (e.g., Computer Science, Software Engineering) or a comparable education.

• A minimum of 5 years of relevant experience in DevOps or similar roles.

• Experience in leading DevOps efforts in an engineering team.

• Expertise in cloud-native technologies and proficiency in Terraform, Kubernetes, Helm, and related projects (e.g., Istio, Prometheus, etc.).

• Experience specifically with GCP and AWS, and deploying and managing infrastructure with a GitOps/IaC approach.

• Experience in implementing CI/CD pipelines, preferably with Github Actions, for operations (GitOps/IaC) and application development.

• Experience in observability, monitoring, and analytics tooling.

• Proficiency in an established scripting language (Python, Perl, Bash, etc.).

• Deep understanding of operating systems, container technologies, networking, and databases.

• Ability to learn new things quickly without tight supervision.

• Ability to understand business problems and the needs of our users.

• Problem-solving attitude.

• Collaborative team spirit.
