In a dynamic and agile environment, you will work with cloud infrastructure across Azure, AWS, GCP, and Kubernetes-based environments. We emphasize a cloud-agnostic approach using open-source tools and modern DevOps/GitOps practices.
Your Responsibilities
- Design, implement, and manage cross-cloud solutions on Azure, AWS, GCP, and on-premises environments
- Administer cloud platforms and Kubernetes clusters
- Use Infrastructure as Code (IaC) tools to build and maintain cloud-agnostic, reproducible infrastructure
- Automate platform deployments and updates using CI/CD and GitOps pipelines
- Monitor and fine-tune cloud infrastructure for optimal performance, availability, and scalability
- Maintain security and compliance standards across cloud environments with the help of your Security Team
- Contribute to troubleshooting and performance optimization
- Document architectural decisions and platform best practices
Core experience we're looking for:
- Solid, hands-on experience with Kubernetes — cluster management, networking (CNI), RBAC, and containerized deployments
- Strong background in cloud infrastructure on at least one major provider (Azure preferred, AWS and GCP equally welcome)
- Proven experience with Infrastructure as Code (e.g. Terraform, Ansible, Pulumi, or similar)
- Familiarity with CI/CD and GitOps principles and tooling (e.g. GitLab CI/CD, ArgoCD, or equivalent)
- Experience with managed Kubernetes distributions such as OpenShift, AKS, or RKE2
- Familiarity with network security and cloud firewall configurations
- Agile working experience (Scrum, Kanban)
- Strong analytical and problem-solving skills with the ability to understand systems broadly and deeply
- A pragmatic mindset and the ability to pick up new technologies quickly
- Excellent English communication skills and the ability to collaborate within cross-functional teams
You give your best and we make sure you feel supported and truly valued. That's why we offer benefits that go well beyond the standard:
- 6 weeks of vacation: 30 days of vacation are our standard.
- Free Swiss Half Fare Travelcard: Enjoy half-price public transport across Switzerland.
- Smartphone & mobile plan: Monthly contribution for your mobile plan plus a new smartphone every three years.
- Flexibility & hybrid work model: work from home or in our modern office, depending on your needs.
- Beautiful office in the heart of Mendrisio: Fully equipped and centrally located.
- Excellent social security benefits: We cover 70% of your pension (BVG) contributions — instead of the usual 50%. That adds up, especially from your mid-30s onward.
- Fully paid parental leave: 18 weeks at full pay instead of the usual 14 — giving you 4 extra weeks and thousands of francs more for your family time.
