The Opportunity: 

Developing software is great, but developing software with a purpose is even better! As a DevOps Engineer, you’ll work on a product that helps people with the most precious thing they have — their health. In collaborative teams of engineers, designers, product owners, and QA experts, you’ll experience best-in-class software development practices daily and contribute to software that meets the highest expectations — we do not put our users' lives at risk!

You will oversee application releases and manage the automation process to support building our applications. Tasks may include scripting, testing, troubleshooting problems, and communicating issues to software engineers.

Who you are:

We seek an experienced, motivated Senior DevOps Software Engineer who will work closely with engineers and our product teams. Required skills to accomplish your mission:

• At least 7 years of hands-on experience automating CI/CD pipelines (for example, Backend, Web, API, Lambdas, and Desktop (Windows, MacOS)).

• Proven ability to establish code branching and review processes.

• Proficiency in Python or a comparable programming language.

• Deep experience in:

  • Setting up and maintaining CI systems (GitHub Actions, Jenkins, GitLab CI).

  • Building containers (Containerd, Docker).

  • Managing artifact repositories (Nexus, Artifactory).

  • Integrating SAST and DAST security tools (SonarQube, Mayhem, Trivy).

• A real enthusiasm for teamwork and helping others across different teams.

• A desire to mentor colleagues and share your knowledge.

• Excellent communication skills in English, both written and spoken.

The following skills significantly strengthen your application:

• Familiarity with Amazon Web Services (AWS) or other cloud platforms.

• Experience in building and testing applications (e.g., JMeter, Appium, xCUITest, JUnit, Selenium),

• Background in developing digital products such as SaaS, marketplaces, and e-commerce platforms.

• Knowledge of the diabetes or similar healthcare industries.

Here's what you can expect from us:

• Ambitious and passionate people building meaningful products 

• An innovative agile working environment allowing for collaboration with smart people and knowledge sharing in cross-functional teams 

• We welcome technical evangelists, so if you are interested in any thought leadership contributions (blogs, conferences) within the realm of the organization, we are happy to support you.

• Loads of benefits (brand new Apple hardware, fitness, public transport, lunch benefit, language classes, professional training budget,...)

You will learn about the wide range of technologies we employ, from native mobile development to infrastructure-as-code in our cloud environment, gaining a rich understanding of the specific requirements of medical software, be it security, medical risk management, safe and resilient programming, or certifications and audits. 

You will have direct contact with our users, learning about their daily struggles living with diabetes, as well as customers and partners, understanding the unique needs and mechanics of healthcare systems worldwide. 

Interested? Great. We’d like to hear from you! Just click that “Apply Now” button and send us your CV… and anything else you think might impress us.

While we embrace some flexibility, this role does have on-site expectations meaning you should live close enough for a convenient commute. Candidates in Sant Cugat, Spain, will be in the office at least 40% of the time. For our Pune, India team, a three-day-per-week office presence is required. 

No relocation support is provided for this job. You'll need to be legally authorized to work here with a valid VISA.
