Go wild in our digital sandbox.
Every project is unique, and with every project, we learn more and more about scalable architecture. That is why we develop all solutions on our own stack, composed of open-source technology.
That stack consists of a collection of commonly used functionalities developed as standardized modules. This allows us to easily configure, reuse, optimize, maintain and update our solutions. That way, we have more time to investigate and realize the technically challenging parts of each project.
To support this, all our applications are dockerized and ready to be deployed out of our private registry. The deployment process is managed with Gitlab CI/CD having pipelines building, testing, auditing, and deploying images to multiple environments automatically.
Our stack is our sandbox. We challenge each other to add interesting modules, launch different SaaS products or simply try out and develop a creative concept. Do you have a genius idea? Go wild!
What will you do as a DevOps & Cloud Engineer?
As an experienced DevOps & Cloud Engineer at Dotlab, you oversee our infrastructure on which we work on the challenging projects of our clients. This varies from larger corporate websites to complex e-commerce and portal solutions. You will contribute to our overall architecture and infrastructure.

Also, you will implement monitoring and perform health checks to make sure that the infrastructure is performing at optimal levels. Of course, you will also create technical documentation and engineering specifications, support the delivery of SLA, service performance measures, risk migration, and issue resolution.
You will support IT systems, work comfortably with Linux system and manage changes to the system. You will use Linux shell scripting to write automation scripts and build scripts that will back up databases and apps and of course restore on demand. Regarding apps, you will build and deploy them using Helm, docker containers with continuous integration.
At Dotlab there is a lot of room to develop yourself, which we kind of expect you to do. You are someone with a fresh view, an eye for quality, and who loves to automate things. Someone who is open to change and has the drive to continuously improve services. You consult with other team members and come up with suggestions or improvements to further improve the quality.

We look forward to a long and successful collaboration.
Dotlab really values the work-family balance and that is important to me. Because of the hybrid work form, I save a lot of time. It’s about getting the job done and for me the workload is just right. I get to do fun projects and I don’t feel pressure. Building entire systems from scratch is especially fun!
