As a team, we provide the technical foundation for Thieme’s digital offerings. Together with our colleagues in cross‑functional teams, we aim to create optimal solutions for our customers.

Department: Information Technology
Start: As soon as possible
Contract duration: unlimited
Workung hours: full time (40h/week)
Your new passion
- You design, build, and own our hybrid Internal Developer Platform for product teams – ranging from on‑premises infrastructure in our own data center to the Azure Cloud.
- You consistently automate infrastructure and platform services as product components using Infrastructure as Code (Terraform, Ansible) and provide standardized, reusable CI/CD pipelines.
- You design and operate our scalable container and Kubernetes platform and establish self‑service standards that enable product teams to take full end‑to‑end ownership of their applications (“You build it, you run it”).
- You integrate observability, security, and compliance by default (monitoring, logging, DevSecOps) into the platform and focus on sustainable root‑cause analysis instead of purely reactive incident handling.
- You gradually modernize existing legacy systems into contemporary platform and operating models (containerization, cloud and Kubernetes runtimes) and drive the maturity of our processes forward.
- You take responsibility for architectural decisions and platform ownership and act as a technical sparring partner for development teams, product owners, and other stakeholders.
You inspire us with this
