We’re looking for a DevOps & Infrastructure Engineer with a strong focus on database reliability and performance to help build the backbone of our platform. You’ll manage a mix of managed services and self-hosted infrastructure, ensuring that the systems powering KoRo’s e-commerce and operations are fast, observable, and resilient.

• Take ownership of our database clusters (MySQL), focusing on performance tuning, query optimization, and scaling strategies to support high-traffic e-commerce events.

• Ensure secure and scalable infrastructure using tools like Terraform, treating our database schema migrations and stateful sets with the same rigor as our application code.

• Manage centralised logging, monitoring and alerting systems.

• Improve CI/CD pipelines and support automated deployment strategies.

• Collaborate with your team's engineers on topics such as environment parity, database performance and observability.

• Identify bottlenecks and propose resilient and maintainable solutions to infrastructure challenges.

• Manage user access, secrets and backups across environments.

• Troubleshoot production issues, help shape, establish and participate in on-call rotations, and drive root cause resolutions.

• 2–4 years experience in DevOps, infrastructure or platform engineering.

• Hands-on experience managing relational databases (MySQL or PostgreSQL) at scale, including replication, indexing strategies, and backup verification.

• Knowledge of Docker and containerised environments.

• Familiarity with CI/CD systems (e.g. GitLab CI/CD and GitHub Actions).

• Familiarity of setting up and managing centralised logging and monitoring tools (e.g. DataDog, Prometheus, Grafana and Loki).

• Good knowledge of PHP, JavaScript and other web technologies.

• Fluent in English.

• Self-driven, pragmatic and good at communicating, with a strong sense of ownership.

• Nice to have:

  • Ideally, you will have experience with Shopware or similar e-commerce systems.

  • Experience with Infrastructure as Code tools (e.g. Terraform or Ansible).

  • German is a plus.

• Join a fast-growing and purpose-driven company that's shaping the future of food retail
• Extensive onboarding to help you succeed in your role
• Flexible working hours and hybrid or fully remote work setup
• Modern office in Berlin Schöneberg + BVG public transport ticket fully covered
• Subsidized fitness memberships (Urban Sports Club or FitX)
• A modern MacBook and the tools you need to do your best work
• Well-stocked office kitchen with snacks, fruit, tea, and coffee
• 20% discount in the KoRo online store
• Regular team events, from low-key lunches to epic company parties
