Senior DevOps Engineer (m/f/d)
The role we operate a payment platform, where availability is not a quality feature, but a prerequisite: real-time transactions at the pump column, to which millions of drivers rely daily. We are ~55 people, AWS-native – in the DevOps team this means: short paths, direct architectural responsibility and decisions that really land in production. As a Senior DevOps Engineer, you are co-architect of this infrastructure – not ticket processors. Who we arePACE Mobility digitizes the pumping column – and far beyond. Since 2015, we have been bringing gas stations, charging stations and washing machines into the digital world: whether via our PACE Drive app, as a white-label solution or directly in the vehicle. Well-known partners rely on our infrastructure, millions of drivers in Europe use our technology every day. As a scale-up with real start-up DNA, we drive the digitization of the mobility industry forward – with short paths, fast decisions and people who really want to move something. .

The goal: developers can deploy safely and quickly – without experiencing any release as a nerve sample Security & Compliance: You are responsible for the security posts of our cloud environment – from IAM concepts to network segmentation Vulnerability Management Engineering Partner: No Silo DevOps where tickets are thrown over the fence. You work closely with our backend teams – at eye level
