• Strong DevOps mindset and hands-on experience with CI/CD, test automation and observability
• Experience providing technical leadership across team boundaries, coaching engineers and driving improvements to engineering practices
• An ownership mindset: you shape your environment, break down complex problems independently and enjoy moving between domains and unfamiliar systems
• Clear, respectful communication with engineers, product managers and stakeholders, with fluent English; German is a plus
