Infrastructure & Operations Engineer; Rust​/NixOS); m​/w​/d

At Cyberus Technology, we build and operate automated test systems on real hardware for internal use and customer solutions. Our focus is on making on-hardware tests reliable, deterministic, and operable at scale.

We are looking for an Infrastructure & Operations Engineer to take operational ownership of our test automation infrastructure. This ownership is firmly focused on stability and reliability, and the role involves significant hands-on software development
, primarily in Rust, to continuously improve operability, observability, and automation. You will work as part of a small, highly practical team where building and operating the system go hand in hand.

• Operate, maintain, and continuously improve a bare-metal Hardware-in-the-Loop (HIL) test infrastructure
• Deploy and run a Rust-based control plane for reserving and remotely interacting with physical devices
• Actively develop and improve Rust services where needed, especially around reliability, observability, and automation
• Manage NixOS-based systems end-to-end: provisioning, updates, rollbacks
• Integrate and automate hardware control (USB/serial, USB-OTG, power control, HDMI capture, networked devices)
• Leverage existing tracing and metrics to improve monitoring, alerting, and system reliability

• Strong Linux systems engineering background with hands-on production responsibility
• Practical experience with Nix and NixOS (or strong motivation to work with it daily)
• Comfortable reading, modifying, and extending Rust services in a production setting
• Strong bias toward building predictable, debuggable, and maintainable systems
• Experience with hardware-adjacent infrastructure beyond “just servers”
• End-to-end mindset: you operate what you build, from metal to API
• Enjoy working in a small team where everyone contributes across ops and development

• An open-minded, creative, and lovely team
• Drinks and fruit for free in our Office in Dresden
• Modern facilities & work place, desks adjustable for height
• A flexible work schedule
• Home office (partially or permanently)
• A family-friendly work environment
• Attractive compensation and retirement plan
• Time and resources for personal development

We welcome and encourage applications from qualified professionals, irrespective of their gender, sexual orientation, disability status, religious beliefs or any other characteristic.
