Our multi-petabyte storage infrastructure has over 43 million active users and processes several thousand emails every second.
- Work closely with the teams in our internal development and product management department. Together you will define the requirements that support our strategic goals.

Your Profile
Have you already gained relevant experience as a "System Engineer (f/m/d)" in large, highly available Linux environments? Do you love automation and are you fascinated by large storage systems with rotating metal and SSDs? Then we look forward to receiving your application!
- You have in-depth experience with distributed and highly available systems such as Ceph, Cassandra or Elasticsearch/Opensearch.
- You are comfortable with bare-metal hardware as well as running applications in our on-prem Kubernetes platform, which is operated by our infrastructure team.
- You are familiar with protocols other than HTTP and you are also familiar with ZFS.
- You are familiar with automation and configuration management, know tools such as Puppet and Ansible and understand the principles of Continuous Integration/Continuous Deployment (CI/CD).
- You have practical experience with OpenMetrics-based monitoring (Prometheus, VictoriaMetrics, Grafana) and can therefore not only plan resource requirements in advance, but also analyze and resolve problems. And if all else fails, you won't shy away from grep, sed and awk.
