DevOps Engineer (Kubernetes / Video Infrastructure)

what you can expect

We combine state-of-the-art AI technology with tangible added value for our customers. Staige stands for technological progress, real-time video analysis, and intelligent solutions. Our mission: making visual data usable wherever it is needed – from critical infrastructure to sports!

Do you feel at home in Kubernetes environments and want to build infrastructure that runs reliably even under demanding conditions? Do you enjoy operating video, streaming, and AI workloads in security-critical environments – from IP cameras to GPUs? Then join our team and bring your strengths to Staige!

Your duties
  • You will operate and further develop our Kubernetes-based platform for video management and AI analysis in customer environments, including air-gapped installations.
  • You will be responsible for our GitOps workflows, including update strategies, versioning, and rollback concepts.
  • You will automate the provisioning and configuration of IP camera fleets.
  • You will operate and optimize streaming, messaging, and database components in conjunction with GPU inference workloads.
  • You will manage storage connectivity and retention concepts for high-volume video recordings.
  • You will translate security and compliance requirements into robust technical concepts—from encryption and certificate management to audit-proof logging, system hardening, and controlled patch management.
The skills you bring
  • You have strong expertise in Linux, Kubernetes, and modern deployment workflows (GitOps, CI/CD)
  • You are proficient in working with containers, automation, and infrastructure-as-code or configuration management
  • You have experience with video streaming technologies or the willingness to get up to speed quickly
  • You have a foundational understanding of network technology and IT security (TLS, certificates, network access control) and enjoy working at the interface with security teams
  • Ideally, you have already worked with IP cameras, message brokers, databases, or GPU workloads in Kubernetes
  • You have practical experience in environments with high security or compliance requirements (e.g., critical infrastructure, government agencies, regulated industries)
  • You prefer pragmatic, tailored solutions over unnecessary complexity and prefer to test hypotheses empirically rather than just discussing them
What We Offer You
  • Flexible working hours
  • Modern workspace with the option for remote work
  • Friendly and collaborative work environment
  • Individual onboarding and support for professional development
  • Exciting and innovative projects with challenging tasks where you take on responsibility early on
  • A company culture where your opinion is valued and you can make a real impact with your ideas
