Deutsche Bank Technology in Berlin

DB Technology is a global team of tech specialists, spread across multiple trading hubs and tech centres. We have a strong focus on promoting technical excellence – our engineers work at the forefront of financial services innovation using cutting‑edge technologies.

About the Role

Are you a DevOps engineer who loves to take charge and build for the future? Within Core Trading Technology, we’re looking for a proactive and passionate engineer to help us modernize our core infrastructure and development practices. This isn’t just about maintaining systems; it’s about owning them. You’ll be a key player in migrating our CI/CD pipelines to a modern platform (like GitHub Actions) and shaping the future of our hybrid cloud environment. If you thrive on automation, reliability, and drive change from the ground up, we want to talk to you.

Key Responsibilities

• Lead the charge in migrating our pipelines from TeamCity to a modern CI/CD platform, designing robust, automated workflows for our Java‑based microservices.
• Build and manage our hybrid infrastructure (GCP and on‑prem) using Terraform and Ansible. You’ll automate everything from provisioning to security compliance.
• Engineer a highly reliable system by implementing best‑in‑class observability (metrics, logs, tracing). You’ll define SLOs, tune alerts, and lead post‑incident reviews to ensure we learn and improve.
• Act as a force multiplier for our development teams, collaborating to improve deployment strategies, enhance service observability, and champion DevOps best practices.
• Take ownership of our production environment, ensuring stability, participating in on‑call rotations, and continuously improving our operational runbooks and processes.

Qualifications

• Deep experience with IaC (Terraform, Ansible) and a passion for automating everything.
• Proven ability to build, manage, and migrate complex CI/CD pipelines (experience with TeamCity and GitHub Actions is a huge plus).
• Hands‑on experience with a major cloud provider (GCP preferred) and container orchestration (Kubernetes, Docker).
• Understanding of the Java ecosystem from an operational perspective (Maven/Gradle, microservice monitoring).
• Comfortable writing scripts and building tools to solve problems (Python, Go, or Groovy).
• Excellent communication skills and a history of working effectively with development teams.

Bonus Points

• Experience with observability stacks (Prometheus, Grafana, ELK).
• Familiarity with a variety of data stores (e.g., PostgreSQL, Oracle, ClickHouse).

Benefits

• Consultation in difficult life situations as well as mental health awareness trainings.
• Health check‑ups, vaccination drives, and advice on healthy living and nutrition.
• Networking opportunities, PME family service, Fitness Center job, flexible working (e.g., part‑time, hybrid working, job tandem), and an inclusive culture of diversity, equity, and inclusion.
• Pension plans, banking services, company bicycle or “Deutschlandticket”.
