The role

As published by Sportradar.

ABOUT US:
Become a key contributor within our engineering enablement team, taking on a central role in building internal products for the organisation including:

  • An Internal Developer Platform (IDP) to empower software teams.
  • A central pipeline to enable the SLDC.
  • An observability platform to give high value telemetry.
  • An Infrastructure platform to host the organisations workloads through containers.

We’re seeking someone with a preferably software engineering background who understands developer workflows, is passionate about automation, and thrives on making complex systems accessible and reliable for all.

THE CHALLENGE:

  • Work alongside development teams to design, automate, and scale resilient infrastructure and CI/CD pipelines optimized for rapid, secure delivery.
  • Develop reusable frameworks and abstractions that remove friction in deploying, running, and monitoring services — enabling developers to focus on creating outstanding products.
  • Drive the adoption of engineering best practices by mentoring peers, shaping standards, and transforming outdated processes into modern, maintainable solutions.
  • Contribute to automation initiatives to minimize manual tasks, reduce operational risk, and ensure consistency across both legacy and new applications.
  • Engage proactively with engineering teams to gather feedback and continuously evolve our platform, tooling, and developer experience.


ABOUT YOU:

  • Experience in software engineering, with hands-on exposure to building and supporting production-grade systems.
  • Understanding of Kubernetes and cloud platforms (preferably AWS); comfortable deploying and operating scalable, resilient workloads.
  • Expertise in infrastructure as code (Terraform, Ansible, or similar) and a natural inclination toward automation.
  • Proficiency in scripting or programming languages (Python, Go, Bash, etc.).
  • Comprehensive grasp of CI/CD pipelines, observability, and security best practices.
  • Collaborative and communicative — adept at mentoring teammates, advocating for modern engineering practices, and thriving in cross-functional squads.
  • Motivated by the opportunity to build internal platforms that abstract complexity and enhance developer productivity at scale.

 

OUR OFFER:

  • A collaborative environment with colleagues from all over the world (Engineering offices in Europe, Asia and US) including various social events and teambuilding.
  • Flexibility to manage your workday and tasks with autonomy.
  • A balance of structure and autonomy to tackle your daily tasks.
  • Vibrant and inclusive community, including Women in Tech and Pride groups which welcome all participants.
  • Global Employee Assistance Programme.
  • Calm and Reulay app (leading well-being apps designed to support focus, quality rest, mindfulness, and long-term mental resilience).
  • Online training videos.
  • Flexible working hours.

While we appreciate the flexibility and benefits of working from home, we strongly believe that coming together in person fosters stronger connections, encourages collaboration, and drives innovation — both as individuals and as a company. The energy, shared ideas, and team support we experience in the office strengthen the foundation of our success and culture. For this reason, we are an office-first business operating on a fully on-site model, with team members working in the office five days a week to build relationships, exchange ideas, and grow together.


OUR RECRUITMENT PROCESS: 

  • Initial Screening: A quick chat with our Talent Acquisition Partner to understand your background and expectations.
  • Technical Interview: Meet with the Hiring Manager to discuss your experience and technical expertise.
  • Onsite Interview: Meet with the local technical team and take a tour of our office for a final meet-and-greet.
  • Finals Steps: Receive feedback and, if successful, an offer!
