Senior DevOps Engineer (m/f/d)
Alpine Eagle GMBH
At Alpine Eagle, we are a team of specialists with backgrounds in defence, aerospace engineering and machine learning, building the first airborne, swarm-based system to provide protection against the rising drone threat. We believe that recent conflicts have shown the malicious and disruptive potential of drones in both civilian and defense scenarios. In addition, we are convinced that the next step in counter-drone is air-to-air.
We want to ensure that all governments and institutions that believe in personal freedom and the rule of law have cutting edge solutions to protect against this rising threat.
We offer a work environment that is inclusive and open, with a flat hierarchy, and a purpose-driven team. We want to reinforce a culture where great ideas can flourish, and great people collaborate.

• Strong background in edge deployments, ideally with some robotics or hardware experience
• Expertise with CI/CD tools (GitLab CI, Jenkins, GitHub Actions) and container technologies (Docker, OCI)
• Familiarity with Infrastructure as Code is a plus
