Senior DevOps Engineer

Job Title: Senior DevOps Engineer

Location: Vienna, Austria

Type: Permanent

Salary: €60,000-€65,000/year

Start Date: ASAP

Are you a seasoned DevOps professional ready to make a real impact? I’m currently supporting an innovative, global medical technology organisation that is pushing boundaries and scaling rapidly. This is a chance to join a highly collaborative engineering environment where your expertise will directly contribute to life‑changing products used around the world.

This business is investing heavily in modern cloud infrastructure, automation, and robust engineering practices—and they’re looking for a Senior DevOps Engineer who can help drive that transformation.

If you're passionate about automation, cloud architecture, CI/CD excellence, and coaching teams toward true DevOps culture, this is a role where your voice will be heard and your ideas will help shape the future.

Why This Role Stands Out

• You’ll join a business that truly values engineering excellence and invests in modern cloud technologies.
• Your work directly contributes to high‑impact medical innovations that improve lives globally.
• You’ll have the autonomy to shape DevOps strategy and influence long‑term architecture.
• A supportive culture where mentorship, continuous improvement, and technical leadership are encouraged.

Responsibilities

In this influential and hands‑on role, you will:

• Design, build, and maintain scalable, secure CI/CD pipelines powering complex software products.
• Implement Infrastructure as Code (IaC) using tools like Terraform to deploy and configure cloud resources across Azure (and possibly AWS).
• Develop secure Azure cloud environments, ensuring stability, scalability, and industry‑leading safety standards.
• Collaborate with and guide development teams, helping to automate their workflows and strengthen continuous integration practices.
• Integrate security into every stage of the pipeline, including code signing, static analysis, and automated security testing.
• Champion DevOps culture across the organisation—coaching teams and promoting best practices.
• Mentor junior team members, offering architectural guidance and sharing your technical expertise.
• This is a high‑impact position with the freedom to bring new ideas, improve processes, and influence architectural decisions.

Experience

To succeed, you should have:

• A bachelor’s degree in computer science, software engineering, or a related field.
• 5+ years’ experience in a DevOps or development environment with strong cloud administration background (ideally Azure).
• Strong communication skills and the ability to influence cross‑functional teams.
• Experience with modern pipeline and automation tools such as GitHub Actions, Azure DevOps, Jenkins, Snyk, Sonar, or New Relic.
• Expertise with DevOps and IaC frameworks like Terraform, Ansible, or Packer.
• Understanding of network administration and monitoring.
