Description
KINEXON is a global location-based technology leader that develops groundbreaking hardware and software solutions for the Internet of Things (IoT). Our vision is to provide a real-time intelligence solution for a connected and automated world . Wherever assets, people or operations are in motion, we can improve and automate the underlying processes, creating powerful results for our customers.
THE TEAM AND ITS MISSION
KINEXON manages hundreds of active customer installations around the globe, running in heterogeneous and demanding environments. Our infrastructure team builds and operates the cloud infrastructure that powers these deployments — ensuring they are reliable, observable, and scalable as KINEXON grows
YOUR TASKS AND RESPONSIBILITIES
Design, build, and operate the infrastructure behind KINEXON's cloud platform — from CI/CD pipelines to production Kubernetes clusters
Develop and maintain infrastructure as code using Terraform to provision and manage cloud resources on AWS
Own the Kubernetes platform: cluster lifecycle, deployment strategies, Helm charts, networking, and security policies
Build internal tooling and backend services in Go to automate platform operations and support developer workflows
Operate and evolve our observability stack (Prometheus, Grafana, VictoriaMetrics, Sentry) — dashboards, alerting, and incident response
Maintain and improve our GitLab CI/CD build infrastructure, including runner fleets, pipeline templates, and artifact management
Collaborate with product engineering teams on containerization, release processes, and production readiness
Participate in architecture discussions, document infrastructure decisions, and present platform changes to internal stakeholders
YOUR PROFILE
You have at least 5 years of professional experience in DevOps, Platform Engineering, or Site Reliability Engineering
You have strong hands-on experience with Kubernetes in production — deploying, scaling, debugging, and securing containerized workloads
You write infrastructure as code with Terraform and understand state management, module design, and drift handling
You have worked extensively with AWS (or a comparable hyperscaler) and are comfortable with networking, IAM, and managed services
You are proficient in Go for building backend services, CLIs, and automation tooling
You have operated observability stacks (Prometheus, Grafana, VictoriaMetrics, or similar) and know how to design meaningful alerts and dashboards
You have built and maintained CI/CD pipelines and their underlying infrastructure, preferably in GitLab
You are comfortable working in Linux environments and debugging distributed systems at the network, container, and application level
You have practical experience with AI/LLM technologies — using AI-assisted coding tools, integrating LLM APIs into products, or deploying AI-powered tooling for engineering teams
Experience with frontend / SPA development (Vue.js, TypeScript) is a plus
You communicate well, show a hands-on mentality, and take ownership of your work
You are fluent in English; German is a plus
