You'll find a place where you can be yourself, prioritize your wellbeing, and truly belong. What's in it for you? Constant learning, skill growth, great benefits, and a team that wants you to grow and succeed.

We provide solutions to run and orchestrate Kubernetes clusters on public cloud, hybrid or SAP-owned infrastructures for a variety of enterprise use cases inside and outside of SAP.

Our Security and Agent Sandbox Development Team is contributing to the Gardener and other community projects (e.g. OpenShell) with a variety of topics around Kubernetes, Linux and Container Security Hardening, including networking, Linux Нamespaces & Cgroups, SecComp, eBPF, Landlock, etc.

We’re building ApeiroRA, an open-source reference architecture that strengthens Europe’s digital sovereignty. This initiative is part of a broader movement to ensure security, sustainability, and compliance for cloud-to-edge computing. By joining us, you’ll contribute to a project that’s not just technical, it’s strategic for Europe’s future.

  • Continuously learn and apply new technologies and best practices to keep us ahead of the curve.

What we're looking for

  • Strong problem-solving and analytical capabilities, with a collaborative, proactive mindset and a commitment to continuous improvement.
  • Ability to clearly communicate and present complex technical concepts.
