Senior Kubernetes Services Engineer

Vor 6 Tagen

Zürich, Schweiz VSHN AG Vollzeit

VSHN, pronounced like “vision,” is Switzerland's leading partner for enabling DevOps, cloud-native development, and agile IT operations. We empower software teams with self-service products like APPUiO and Application Catalog, as well as tailored solutions built on our Managed OpenShift product and standardized building blocks leveraging GitOps, CI/CD, VM-based services, and various support and operations subscriptions. Most of these services are provided as managed services by VSHN, ensuring applications are testable, deployable, scalable, and operable in any cloud or on-premise environment.

Your new role: Senior Kubernetes Services Engineer

As a Senior Kubernetes Services Engineer in our Application Catalog (AppCat) Team at VSHN, named Schedar, you will engineer and maintain our AppCat services. This includes requirements engineering, consulting, building new services, and improving existing ones.

Your key focus will be developing new AppCat services and enhancing existing ones using your expertise in Go programming, the Kubernetes Operator SDK, and Jsonnet. Working with tools like Crossplane, you’ll leverage your knowledge of Kubernetes and Operators to deliver valuable contributions to our Scrum Team.

In addition to engineering, you’ll take on operational responsibilities, such as responding to alerts, resolving customer tickets, debugging issues, and creating follow-up tasks to address root causes. On-call rotations will also be part of your role for a few weeks per year.

Responsibilities summarized
  • Build and maintain services: Work with your team to develop new AppCat services and improve existing ones.
  • Customer support: Provide timely support to customers using AppCat services.
  • Bug fixing: Identify and resolve bugs in AppCat services.
  • Operations: Respond to alerts, debug issues, and ensure service reliability, including on-call responsibilities.
Company culture

As an organization, we thrive on diversity and self-management, orienting ourselves on Agile and Sociocracy 3.0 principles. We emphasize transparency, collaboration, and common goals, valuing Scrum-like workflows in our tech teams. Decisions at VSHN are made collaboratively, valuing reasoned arguments over hierarchical positions - we trust in self-responsibility in everyone, in people who share the responsibility of their team, and that decisions happen with the subject-matter experts, in our teams where we face the day-to-day challenges while getting the best possible support from the wider organization.

Read more about how VSHN is unique in our handbook - one example of how much we value Transparency and live open source as an organization.

You have

  • A solid understanding of software development (especially Go) and Kubernetes, including Operators.
  • Operational (Ops) knowledge and experience in troubleshooting and maintaining systems.
  • Expertise in Linux environments and scripting for automation.
  • Experience working in an agile Scrum team as a developer.
  • Strong teamwork skills and the ability to communicate effectively with customers.
  • A structured approach to working and documenting.
  • Proficiency in English (German is a plus).
  • A university degree or equivalent higher education in a relevant field.
  • A willingness to join the on-call rotation after onboarding.

You are

  • Excited to work in a company with self-managed teams, where reasoned arguments hold sway over hierarchical mandates and your work can make a real impact.
  • Passionate about translating customer needs into actionable tasks and delivering value for customers.
  • Eager to learn, solve challenges, and set boundaries when needed.
  • A team player who values communication, collaboration, and an agile mindset.

As a bonus, you have

  • Experience or interest in Crossplane and Jsonnet.
  • Strong knowledge of OSB (Open Service Broker) concepts.
  • A background in database technologies such as PostgreSQL, MariaDB, Redis, or RabbitMQ.
  • A Certified Kubernetes Administrator (CKA) or Certified Kubernetes Security Specialist (CKS) certification.

At VSHN, we are open to hiring motivated individuals with varying levels of experience who demonstrate a strong commitment to learning and quickly applying new skills on the job. The remuneration for this role will be in line with our fixed salary policy, which applies universally across all roles.

What we offer
  • VSHN offers awesome benefits and great colleagues.
  • If you’re interested, you can grow into new roles by taking on additional responsibilities, working within other roles, or even changing teams over time.
  • We live in a culture that enables working remotely and from home (even before COVID-19), we have mandatory on-site events a few times a year, and in general, we also enjoy meeting at the office to connect and socialize.
  • Like all VSHNeers, you’ll receive a fixed monthly salary and phantom stock options in the company in a fully transparent salary system.

Does this sound interesting? Then apply now, and let’s meet for a casual (virtual) cup of coffee soon

Please note: we don’t work with recruitment agencies, and we’re looking for people with permission to work in Switzerland (Swiss/EU citizens and Swiss residents/work visa holders).
