- Support engineering tooling such as CAD/PDM, and help new projects start with a ready-made, standard setup.
- Automate everything that repeats, using infrastructure as code and configuration management.
- Work with our Information Security team on secure pipelines, secrets management and access control.
Technical Qualifications Required
- 3+ years of experience in a DevOps, build/release or platform engineering role.
- Hands-on experience with CI/CD, ideally GitHub Actions, and with Git workflows.
- Experience with infrastructure as code or configuration management, such as Ansible or Terraform.
- Scripting in Python or Bash to automate your own work.
- Comfortable working directly with engineers, turning their needs into practical solutions.
Nice to have
- Experience with build systems for embedded, firmware or FPGA work (for example CMake, Yocto, Vivado in CI).
- Experience running FlexLM or other engineering license servers.
- Knowledge of containers (Docker) and artifact storage.
- Familiarity with CAD/PDM systems such as SOLIDWORKS PDM or Siemens Teamcenter.
- Experience with Azure or the Microsoft cloud stack (Entra ID).
