We’re looking for a DevOps & Infrastructure Engineer with a strong focus on database reliability and performance to help build the backbone of our platform. You’ll manage a mix of managed services and self-hosted infrastructure, ensuring that the systems powering KoRo’s e-commerce and operations are fast, observable, and resilient.

  • Take ownership of our database clusters (MySQL), focusing on performance tuning, query optimization, and scaling strategies to support high-traffic e-commerce events.

  • Ensure secure and scalable infrastructure using tools like Terraform, treating our database schema migrations and stateful sets with the same rigor as our application code.

  • Manage centralised logging, monitoring and alerting systems.

  • Improve CI/CD pipelines and support automated deployment strategies.

  • Collaborate with your team's engineers on topics such as environment parity, database performance and observability.

  • Identify bottlenecks and propose resilient and maintainable solutions to infrastructure challenges.

  • Manage user access, secrets and backups across environments.

  • Troubleshoot production issues, help shape, establish and participate in on-call rotations, and drive root cause resolutions.

Your profile
  • 2–4 years experience in DevOps, infrastructure or platform engineering.

  • Hands-on experience managing relational databases (MySQL or PostgreSQL) at scale, including replication, indexing strategies, and backup verification.

  • Knowledge of Docker and containerised environments.

  • Familiarity with CI/CD systems (e.g. GitLab CI/CD and GitHub Actions).

  • Familiarity of setting up and managing centralised logging and monitoring tools (e.g. DataDog, Prometheus, Grafana and Loki).

  • Good knowledge of PHP, JavaScript and other web technologies.

  • Fluent in English.

  • Self-driven, pragmatic and good at communicating, with a strong sense of ownership.

  • Nice to have:

    • Ideally, you will have experience with Shopware or similar e-commerce systems.

    • Experience with Infrastructure as Code tools (e.g. Terraform or Ansible).

    • German is a plus.

  • Extensive onboarding to help you succeed in your role
  • Flexible working hours and hybrid or fully remote work setup
  • Modern office in Berlin Schöneberg + BVG public transport ticket fully covered
