Who are we

KEBA Novi Sad is part of the Austrian KEBA Group, a technology company with more than 50 years of experience in industrial automation, energy management, banking automation, e-mobility and logistics.

Location & work model

This role is based in Novi Sad. We work in a hybrid setup with one guaranteed home office day per week, while additional remote days are possible depending on the project and team needs. Since we are building a new engineering capability from the ground up, we believe close day-to-day collaboration is essential. That's why this is primarily an on-site role.

Help us build KEBA's Data Platform

KEBA is building an enterprise data platform that will provide the foundation for data, analytics and AI across the entire Group.

After developing our first data products, exploring different architectural approaches and building our Data Engineering capability, we are now entering the next phase: turning what we have built into a reliable, secure and scalable platform.

For that, we are looking for a Data Platform Engineer (DataOps).

You will work alongside Data Engineers and experienced internal and external experts, taking ownership of the infrastructure, automation and operational foundations that allow our data platform to scale.

What will you actually do?

Your focus will be on making our data platform reliable, repeatable and easy to operate.

You will automate deployments, manage cloud infrastructure, establish observability and operational practices, and help Data Engineers deploy and operate their workloads safely and efficiently.

This is not a role where you simply operate an established platform. You will help define how DataOps is done at KEBA.

Responsibilities

Operate and continuously improve our enterprise data platform
Design and maintain CI/CD pipelines and release processes using GitLab
Implement and manage Infrastructure as Code across platform environments
Establish monitoring, logging, alerting and operational support
Improve platform reliability, performance, availability and infrastructure cost efficiency
Support Data Engineers in deploying, operating and troubleshooting data workloads
Help shape platform security, access management and compliance practices
Take ownership of DataOps topics and contribute to the technical evolution of the platform

Requirements

Professional experience in DevOps, Platform Engineering, Cloud Engineering, DataOps or a similar role
Hands-on experience with Microsoft Azure and modern cloud infrastructure
Strong understanding of Git, CI/CD and release management
Experience with Terraform or another Infrastructure as Code tool
Good understanding of cloud networking concepts
Programming or scripting experience, preferably Python and/or SQL
Experience with monitoring, logging and troubleshooting production systems
Strong automation mindset, ownership and problem-solving skills
Professional proficiency in English

Nice to have

Experience with Microsoft Fabric, Azure Databricks or similar data platforms
Experience with Databricks Asset Bundles
Knowledge of Azure networking technologies such as VNets, Private Endpoints and ExpressRoute
Experience with Docker and containerized workloads
Experience with security, identity and access management in Azure environments
Experience working closely with Data Engineering teams

Is this role for you?

If you enjoy turning complex infrastructure into something reliable, automated and boring to operate, you'll probably enjoy working with us.

If helping define the DataOps foundation of a growing enterprise data platform sounds more exciting than simply operating an established one, we'd love to hear from you.
