IT System Administrator / IT Specialist in System Integration

Your role:

You’ll own and evolve our on‑premises and cloud infrastructure — from the server rack in our Munich office to our Azure environment. The role is hands‑on: you’ll design storage and virtualization setups that can handle terabytes of game assets, keep build servers running efficiently, manage identity services, and automate everything you can. Once the core infrastructure is running smoothly, there’s room to get involved with our DevOps team and help shape how we build and ship our games.

The kind of stuff you’ll be doing:

• Build and maintain our on‑prem server infrastructure — rack hardware, networking, and virtualization (we’re moving to Proxmox).
• Design and manage high‑capacity storage for game assets (we’re talking terabytes) — performance, redundancy, and backups included.
• Keep our build servers fast and reliable — game builds in Unreal Engine can run for hours, so build infrastructure performance directly impacts the team’s productivity.
• Administer and secure our Linux servers and Azure cloud resources.
• Manage hybrid identity with Active Directory and Azure Entra ID.
• Automate routine tasks and infrastructure provisioning — ideally with an Infrastructure‑as‑Code approach (Ansible, Terraform, or similar).
• Support our ~110 Windows endpoints alongside our M365 environment.
• Collaborate with DevOps and development teams to improve build and deployment workflows as the role grows.

Must‑haves

• Completed training or degree in IT / system integration, with approximately 3–5 years of hands‑on experience.
• Strong Linux server administration skills; you’re comfortable living in the terminal.
• Experience designing and building server, storage, and virtualization infrastructure — ideally at a scale where performance and capacity planning matter.
• Solid understanding of network architecture, firewalls, and IT security practices.
• Familiarity with hybrid identity management (Active Directory & Azure Entra ID).
• Automation mindset — you’d rather script a repeatable task than do it twice. Bash and Python are your friends; bonus points for IaC tools like Ansible or Terraform.
• Independent, solution‑oriented, and comfortable communicating in English across departments.

Nice‑to‑haves

• Experience with Proxmox VE or VMWare.
• Familiarity with game development infrastructure — e.g. Unreal Engine build pipelines, asset storage, or version control for large binary files (Perforce, Git LFS).
• Windows endpoint administration (Intune, Group Policy, M365).
• German language skills.
• Interest in DevOps practices and CI/CD pipelines.

Benefits

• Flexible 38‑hour workweek with a real focus on work‑life balance.
• Free drinks, snacks, and fresh organic fruit.
• Monthly transport subsidy and lunch vouchers (after probation).
• Access to the latest gaming tech and room to grow your skills.
• Team events, game jams, and industry conferences.

Note: Depending on seniority, “knowledge of” requirements may be expected at a “good/very good” level for senior candidates.
