DevOps Cloud Engineer

Zühlke Group

Sofia, Bulgaria

The Role

We’re looking for a DevOps Cloud Engineer to join our operations team, helping us operate, evolve, and continuously improve the digital platforms of our clients through an AI-driven, cloud-native approach. We are open to candidates across all seniority levels, including those ready for leadership responsibilities.

Important: To ensure a smooth review process, please submit all application documents (CV, cover letter) in English only.

How you’ll make impact

• Set up, operate, maintain, and continuously improve cloud-native environments and production systems across multiple client accounts.
• Act as a DevOps advocate for both mindset and tooling; leverage longstanding technologies alongside modern cloud-native solutions to help our customers continuously improve.
• Develop and maintain Infrastructure as Code (Terraform, ARM, Bicep, Pulumi) and automation scripts (Bash, PowerShell, Python) to support deployment, maintenance, and incident remediation across multi-cloud environments.
• Integrate AI-driven automation into CI/CD pipelines, observability stacks, and reliability frameworks to reduce manual toil, enhance predictive maintenance, and decrease mean time to recovery (MTTR).
• Partner with Service Managers and Engineers to support application modernisation, AI-optimized cost management, and continuous service improvement.

What is important to us

• At least 3 years of Cloud infrastructure or software engineering experience.
• Operational mindset with hands-on experience in incident management, and reliability engineering. You understand automation vs. toil, capacity planning, and the value of proactive monitoring.
• Deep experience with Cloud platforms (Azure or AWS preferred) and Kubernetes. Proficiency with IaC tools and automation stacks (Jenkins, Ansible, Maven, Gradle, Git, GitLab, Artifactory).
• Strong understanding of SRE principles: SLIs/SLOs, error budgets, postmortems, and incident response practices.
• Excellent English communication skills (written and verbal); fluency in German is highly valued (not requirment) for daily client interaction.
