This is what you tell people at parties 👋

I work at one of the fastest-growing tech companies in Europe. We have a high-performing environment and we get rewarded for all of our wins. We even made it to the list of the Financial Times top 1000 fastest growing companies. Together with Sendcloud, I am on a mission to empower businesses with world-class shipping. With more than 23,000 customers throughout Europe, and soon beyond, Sendcloud is the leading shipping solution in Europe.

What you will do in this role 🧐

As a DevOps Engineer you will be working on the Sendcloud platform within the platform domain. Your work will be distributed between the requirements set by the development team, while still being able to contribute to the overall platform improvements. That platform is used by our software development teams to build, test, deploy and run software themselves. You will be responsible for onboarding development teams into the world of DevOps, and guide developers on the importance of inclusion of non-functional requirements (observability, operations, deployments, security etc) and how to use tools provided to define their ci/cd artefacts and improve deployment chain. 

As a part of the DevOps team your goal is to make the product development teams fully independent with a self-service, scalable platform. You will co-work with the Backend Engineers from development teams, making sure they know how to use the platform, and taking their feedback into account for further improvements.
