DevOps Engineer (w/m/d) - Google Cloud Platform

Location: Remote in our day-to-day work. On-site when it matters. We work remote by default – focused, efficient, and with full ownership. For larger features, architectural decisions, and real brainstorming sessions, we come together in Berlin or Cologne – fast, hands-on, and without unnecessary meeting overhead.

We use AI to accelerate – not to replace thinking.
We design the system, steer the output, and take responsibility for what we ship.
Fast where it makes sense. Careful where it matters.

Your mission

Your skills

Bring deep expertise in DevOps – and take full ownership of the systems you work on.

Must-have:

• 
  

  Bring 5+ years of DevOps engineering experience – as a builder, not an observer

  
  


• 
  

  Be an expert in Google Cloud Platform (GCP) and confidently work with Kubernetes and Linux

  
  


• 
  

  Use Infrastructure as Code, Docker/CRI-O, and shell scripting as part of your daily toolkit

  
  


• 
  

  Own your stack end-to-end – no handovers, no ticket ping-pong, no excuses

  
  

Nice-to-have:

• 
  

  Experience with tools like Graylog, Grafana, Prometheus, Python, or Jenkins

  
  


• 
  

  Experience with Ansible, Terraform, or AWS

  
  

Why you’ll love working with us

• 
  

  Ownership over tickets: You’re trusted with real responsibility, not just tasks. No unnecessary bureaucracy, no micromanagement – we rely on you to take things forward.

  
  


• 
  

  Build > Talk: We test what works – not what sounds good. Fail fast, learn faster.

  
  


• 
  

  High standards, low ego: We take our work seriously, but not ourselves. Direct feedback, honest collaboration, no drama.

  
  


• 
  

  Stay sharp: Hackathons, conferences, community – we invest in your growth and keep you at the cutting edge.

  
  


• 
  

  Remote flexibility. In person, when it matters.: You work flexibly remote, with a connection to our Berlin or Cologne locations, where our TV Labs are and we experiment, build, and learn together.

  
  


• 
  

  And yes – the fundamentals are covered too: 30 days of vacation + Dec 24 & 31 off, Smart Fridays (4 days week possible), mobility (Germany ticket & JobRad), sports & health offerings, mental health support, corporate benefits, RTL+ access, and more.

  
  

Your CV is just the starting point.

What matters more to us than your resume: a portfolio, a side project, a demo repo – anything that shows you don’t just talk about code, you ship it. Production-ready. Thought through. Done.
