Senior Site Reliability Engineer / SRE – Kubernetes & Hybrid Cloud (m/f/d)

This position involves establishing and maintaining a private cloud infrastructure built on Kubernetes and Harvester, running on self-managed hardware in Frankfurt. Day-to-day responsibilities include defining service level objectives, managing incident response, and collaborating with Berlin-based development teams to improve platform reliability. The role requires hands-on experience with tools such as Argo CD, Flux, Prometheus, Grafana, and storage solutions like Longhorn or Ceph. While the advert does not specify a minimum number of years of experience, it emphasizes the need for someone who can help define SRE practices from the ground up rather than inheriting an existing setup. Candidates must possess fluent English skills, though knowledge of German is considered an advantage but not mandatory. The job is based in Berlin with a hybrid working model, allowing for a mix of office and remote work. This opportunity suits engineers who prefer managing their own infrastructure over using managed cloud consoles and are interested in building a modern, on-premises platform with elastic burst capabilities into public clouds. The team currently reports to the Chief Technology Product Officer, with a dedicated SRE Team Lead planned for a future hire.
