Platform Engineer / DevOps | AI GovTech Startup | Munich gesucht in Munich

• You run our production services (NestJS backend, React frontend, PostgreSQL, Redis, MinIO, LLM provider integrations) and own uptime, backups and restore drills, capacity, and incident response
• You build an automated deployment pipeline the team loves: fast, safe, boring releases with rollbacks, migration safety, and staging environments - if deploying is scary or slow, that's a bug you own
• You introduce and drive patterns for structured logging, metrics, and tracing - in the infrastructure and in the product code - including precise alerting when LLM responses are slow, erroring, or degrading, per provider and per model
• You develop and own a proper secrets management setup (Vault or comparable): encrypted at rest, access-controlled, rotatable, auditable
• You implement the technical controls behind our ISO 27001 and GDPR obligations: encryption of databases and backups, key management, access logging, retention
• You shape our tooling choices: today we run Docker / Docker Compose on dedicated Linux servers (Hetzner) with GitHub Actions and Sentry - where it goes next is largely up to you, and we prefer boring, proven technology over resume-driven engineering

• You're a software engineer at heart who gravitated toward infrastructure - comfortable opening a TypeScript codebase and adding a metrics middleware, not just writing pipelines around it
• You have experience running production systems end-to-end: deployment, monitoring, incidents, backups, and the 3 a.m. question of "how would we recover?"
• You're security-minded by default: secrets handling, least privilege, and encryption are instincts, not checklist items
• You're familiar with compliance-driven environments (ISO 27001, SOC 2, or GDPR technical measures) - or genuinely interested in making auditors happy without making developers miserable
• You're opinionated about alerting quality: you've felt alert fatigue and know how to design for signal
• You're pragmatic about scope: we're a small team, so you prioritize ruthlessly and communicate what's deferred

• Regular team events
• Two free yoga/breathwork sessions per month
• Room to grow in a 30+ person startup
• New Munich office with kitchen, lounge, and 50-meter outdoor pool
• Latest tech equipment
• Real responsibility from day one - the platform is yours
• Flat hierarchies and fast decisions
• ️ Meaningful work: modernizing public administration with AI
