Site Reliability Engineer (SRE) – Kubernetes / Platform | Berlin / Frankfurt | €110,000–120,000

If you’re an experienced SRE who enjoys working close to the infrastructure and shaping how platforms evolve, this is a role with real ownership and impact.

The company is investing heavily in its platform - with a clear focus on Kubernetes, automation, and building a more scalable, modern infrastructure across a hybrid environment.

This isn’t a “plug into an existing system” role. You’ll be part of defining how things are built going forward.

Why this role stands out

• High level of ownership across infrastructure and platform decisions
• Strong focus on Kubernetes and modern platform engineering
• Hybrid setup combining on-prem and cloud environments
• Opportunity to influence architecture, tooling, and engineering standards
• A stable environment with long-term investment into technology

What you’ll be working on

• Building and improving Kubernetes-based platforms
• Working across infrastructure, networking, and system reliability
• Driving automation and configuration management (Ansible and similar)
• Improving monitoring, performance, and system resilience
• Supporting the evolution towards a more scalable, API-driven environment

What they’re looking for

• Strong experience in Linux-based systems and infrastructure
• Hands-on experience with Kubernetes
• Solid understanding of infrastructure fundamentals (networking, storage, virtualisation)
• Experience with automation tools (Ansible highly relevant)
• Cloud exposure (e.g. GCP) is a plus, not essential
• Fluent English

This role is ideal for someone who enjoys getting into the detail of systems, but also wants to have a say in how things are built and improved over time.
