About the company

AQUITAS will place you directly and on a permanent basis with our client. Throughout the entire application process, we will accompany you personally and be available as your contact person. Our client is a technology company that develops complex technical systems. To build a new engineering team, we are looking for a leader who combines Linux know-how with an eye for automation and information security. You will help shape the team and its way of working from the very beginning. Together, you will create secure system platforms and develop script-based configuration and deployment processes that allow technical security requirements to be implemented reliably and reproducibly.

Your tasks

• You will build a new engineering team, take on technical and disciplinary leadership, and establish clear responsibilities as well as common goals
• You will develop your employees professionally and personally, provide guidance on technical decisions, and promote knowledge exchange within the team
• As the contact person for your area of responsibility, you will represent technical topics to internal stakeholders and coordinate requirements, priorities, and technical dependencies with the involved departments
• You will manage the development of secure Linux platforms for technical products, keeping an eye on operating system configuration, hardening, and deployment on target systems
• You will drive the further development of processes, scripting, and automation to reduce manual intervention and make configurations and deployments reproducible
• You will be responsible for the implementation of technical protective measures and security specifications, ensuring that vulnerabilities are systematically investigated and improvements are derived
• You will ensure that security requirements and standards are anchored in technical processes and that their compliance is demonstrably documented

Requirements

• You have completed a degree with an IT focus, such as Computer Science or a correspondingly oriented natural science
• You have a sound understanding of Linux systems, their configuration, and technical security; scripting, automation, and deployment are topics you have already dealt with in practice
• Ideally, you have gained initial technical or disciplinary leadership experience and now want to build your own team
• You can communicate technical decisions in an understandable way, provide guidance, and approach different viewpoints constructively
• You have business-fluent English skills

What we offer

• A flexible working time model with a 35h/week, flextime, and the option for mobile working (approx. 2 days) as well as 30 days of vacation
• Collective agreement remuneration (IG - Metall) as well as a variety of collective benefits (T-Zug, regular salary adjustments,...)
• Christmas and vacation bonuses
• An in-house canteen for lunch breaks with a feel-good factor
• Numerous training and development opportunities within the company, such as a fixed induction plan as well as development stages based on length of service
