WORKING AT ONE OF THE BEST EMPLOYERS IN SWITZERLAND

adesso stands for IT excellence and thus also for excellent development opportunities for all adessi. We grow together and learn from each other – on our projects, in the team, and with outstanding training offers. We have IT at heart, keep an eye on the industry, and focus on the success of our customers. Because successful business arises from innovative ideas, future-proof strategies, and smart IT solutions. People who want to make a difference and simply get things done are always involved. We design and build software that excites our customers. In projects that challenge us. And in an environment that is fun, where success is created together and everyone feels comfortable.

WHAT YOU CAN ACHIEVE

You are an experienced Site Reliability Engineer (SRE) who ensures that both customer-related projects and our internal system environments run reliably, performantly, and scalably. In this role, you combine deep technical know-how with a strong customer-oriented mindset. You work closely with customers and internal teams to implement solutions, automate deployments, and proactively prevent problems – so that all parties have a smooth experience.

With us, what you say counts, not who says it – thanks to our flat hierarchies, you quickly gain the freedom to shape things yourself and take responsibility.

Specifically, you take on the following tasks:

• Collaborate with customers and project teams: You analyze requirements and implement them into reliable, scalable solutions for their systems.
• Design & operate infrastructure: You design, deploy, and maintain infrastructures for customer projects in cloud and on-premises environments.
• Drive automation & CI/CD: You develop automation solutions, CI/CD pipelines, and monitoring setups to increase system reliability and deployment efficiency.
• Monitor & keep systems stable: You take on proactive system monitoring, error analysis, and incident response to minimize downtime for our customers.
• Analyze root causes & optimize: You conduct root cause analyses and derive concrete recommendations for customers and internal teams.
• Optimize with engineering teams: You work closely with software engineers to continuously improve system performance, scalability, and reliability.
• Establish best practices: You bring in and further develop best practices for reliability, observability, and incident management in customer projects.
• Take on on-call duties: You participate in on-call rotations to ensure smooth operation of critical systems.

HOW YOU SUCCEED

• Background: Completed studies in computer science, engineering, or a comparable technical field – or equivalent practical experience in a similar environment.
• Experience in SRE/DevOps environment: You bring 3+ years of experience in site reliability engineering, DevOps, or infrastructure engineering, ideally with direct customer focus and responsibility for productive systems.
• Infrastructure as Code: You work confidently with IaC tools like Terraform, Ansible, or Pulumi and use them to build repeatable, scalable infrastructures.
• System & network know-how: You have solid Linux system administration skills and a good understanding of network concepts.
• Cloud expertise: You have experience with at least one major cloud platform (AWS, GCP, or Azure) as well as hybrid environments; relevant certifications are a plus.
• Automation & scripting: You master at least one scripting or automation language (e.g., Python, Bash, or Go) and use it purposefully to increase efficiency.
• CI/CD competence: You have practical experience building and operating CI/CD pipelines, e.g., with Jenkins, GitLab CI, or GitHub Actions.
• Containers & orchestration: You are familiar with container technologies like Docker and have experience with orchestration solutions like Kubernetes.
• Observability: You are familiar with monitoring and logging tools like Prometheus, Grafana, or ELK and use them to keep systems transparent and stable.
• Soft skills: You convince with strong communication skills, a willingness to shape, and a confident, customer-oriented demeanor – both internally and with customers.
• Languages: You have very good German skills in speaking and writing as well as good English skills.
• Security & resilience: Knowledge of security best practices as well as disaster recovery and resilience strategies is an advantage.
