Platform & Governance Engineer (m/f/d)

You make sure agents and data platforms run securely, under control and at a sensible cost.

What you'll do

You make sure our customers' agents and data platforms run securely, under control and at a sensible cost. That covers environments and policies as code, and identities with least-privilege access, as well as classification, monitoring and cost management.

You help build both the governance foundation and day-to-day operations. Together, they turn one-off projects into a responsible, accountable practice that data protection officers and works councils can follow too. Experienced colleagues will show you the ropes.

Foundation as code

You define environments, policies, keys and secrets as code, version them and roll them out automatically.

Governance for agents

You set up the agent inventory and assign identities with least-privilege access. You implement classification and protection policies, and help define logging, the kill switch and reviews.

Operations and cost management

You monitor platforms and keep an eye on capacity and costs. You contribute to the monthly report and keep deployments up to date.

What you'll bring

  • Some professional experience in cloud or platform engineering, system administration or a related field, whether from your first permanent job, a part-time role alongside your studies, an apprenticeship or your own projects.
  • Some experience with infrastructure as code (such as Bicep or Terraform) and CI/CD.
  • A grounding in identity and access management (Entra ID), networking and cloud security.
  • You enjoy documenting things clearly and thoroughly, because others depend on it.
  • Good German and English, as our customers and documentation use both languages.

Nice to have, but not essential:

  • Some experience with Microsoft Purview, Azure Policy or Microsoft Defender.
  • A certification such as Azure Administrator (AZ-104). If you don't have one yet, you can get it with us.
