  • Lead the automation and hardening of environments using modern DevOps practices
  • Own the development and operation of our platform, ensuring high availability and performance
  • Drive improvements in operational processes and incident response

  • Troubleshoot complex production issues across the entire stack and guide root cause analysis
  • Mentor and support junior engineers, fostering a culture of reliability and continuous improvement

What We Are Looking For

  • 8+ years of hands-on experience in Site Reliability Engineering, DevOps, or related infrastructure roles, with a proven track record of operating and scaling production systems in hybrid cloud environments
  • Proven experience operating and scaling Kubernetes, PostgreSQL, HashiCorp Vault, and Min.IO in production environments
  • Advanced proficiency in Infrastructure as Code using Terraform and Ansible
  • Strong understanding of virtualization and networking (e.g., VMware, NSX-T, OpenStack)
  • Hands-on experience with observability tools such as Grafana, Prometheus, or the Elastic Stack
  • Ability to define and implement target architectures in dynamic, agile environments
  • Solid grasp of IT security principles and experience working within ISO 27001 or similar compliance frameworks
  • Excellent communication skills and a collaborative mindset

Why Xempus

  • Join one of the leading insurtechs in Europe as it enters its next growth phase
  • Chance to participate in one of the most generous employee stock option programs in the industry
  • Very attractive contribution to the company pension scheme
  • Corporate health insurance (600€ reimbursement of various medical and pharmacy costs per year)
  • Find creative freedom and quick decision-making structures in a dynamic, innovative environment
  • Work with a team of amazing colleagues with great team spirit (company parties, charity events e.g.)
  • Have the option of hybrid working - for family friendliness and maximum flexibility in your everyday life. You can find out more here.
  • Broad range of personal & professional development opportunities: individual annual training budget, free courses, and a transparent career development model
  • Various health offerings such as bike leasing and EGYM Wellpass
  • Modern offices in a central location, including free drinks & fruit
  • We offer you an option for an unpaid extra holiday in addition to your 30-day holiday entitlement per year
