Employment: Full-time

Description: DevOps Engineer

About the mission

For a mission at one of our clients in Luxembourg, Novatraqr is looking for a medior to senior DevOps Engineer to build and operate the client's cloud platform on AWS.

The environment is Kubernetes-centric (EKS), with event streaming on Kafka (Amazon MSK) and relational data on PostgreSQL / Aurora.

You will automate the infrastructure with Terraform, maintain the Jenkins-based CI/CD pipelines, and support the platform in production alongside the development squads.

Key responsibilities

• Build, operate and evolve Kubernetes workloads on AWS EKS: deployments, scaling, upgrades and cluster hygiene.
• Automate infrastructure provisioning and changes with Terraform (infrastructure as code) across environments.
• Maintain and improve the CI/CD pipelines on Jenkins used by the development squads (build, test, deployment).
• Operate the Kafka event-streaming platform on Amazon MSK: topics, security, monitoring and capacity.
• Administer and support PostgreSQL and Amazon Aurora databases: provisioning, backups, performance and reliability.
• Set up and maintain monitoring, logging and alerting; contribute to incident management and root-cause analysis.
• Advise the squads on containerization, deployment strategies and AWS best practices (cost, security, reliability).

Technical environment

Cloud AWS (EKS, MSK, Aurora, VPC, IAM)
Containers Docker, Kubernetes (EKS), Helm
Streaming Apache Kafka on Amazon MSK
Databases PostgreSQL, Amazon Aurora
CI/CD & IaC Jenkins, Terraform

Your profile

• Medior to senior DevOps / platform engineer (typically 3–7 years of experience), with production responsibility.
• Strong hands-on experience with AWS and Kubernetes, ideally EKS.
• Practical mastery of Terraform and Jenkins, or closely equivalent IaC and CI/CD tooling.
• Experience operating Kafka (ideally on Amazon MSK) and relational databases (PostgreSQL / Aurora).
• Comfortable supporting production systems, including participation in incident resolution.
• Team player, able to work in a Scrum squad and to communicate clearly with developers and stakeholders.
• Fluent in English; French is an asset.

Nice to have

• AWS certification (Solutions Architect, DevOps Engineer).
• Experience with GitOps tooling (ArgoCD) and observability stacks (Prometheus, Grafana).
• Scripting skills (Bash, Python) and experience in regulated environments (finance, EU institutions).

How we work

• Join one of the client's cross-functional squads (product owner, developers, QA) working with the Scrum
methodology: sprint planning, daily stand-ups, reviews and retrospectives.
• Collaborate closely with the other squads and transversal roles (architecture, security, operations) to keep alignment across the client's platform.
• Represent Novatraqr's quality standards on site: code reviews, documentation, knowledge sharing and a professional, delivery-oriented attitude.

Mission details

• Location: Luxembourg, on the client's site.
• Duration: Long-term mission.
• Methodology: Scrum, within an established squad organization.
