Platform Engineer; f​/m​/d

Meet the Team:

The Platform Engineer is responsible for embedding security into DCS’s cloud and platform foundations, ensuring that security controls are designed, implemented, automated, and operated as part of the platform lifecycle rather than treated as an afterthought.

This role acts as a technical security enabler for the platform, working closely with the Information Security Officer to ensure that security requirements are translated into scalable, reliable, and auditable technical controls across cloud infrastructure, CI/CD pipelines, and identity platforms.

• Design and operate secure‑by‑default cloud platform components on Azure, including network, computer, Kubernetes, and storage security.
• Implement platform‑level security guardrails and baseline configurations using Infrastructure as Code (e.g., Terraform).
• Define and enforce strong identity, access, and privilege management (RBAC, least privilege, JIT/privileged access).
• Embed security controls into CI/CD pipelines (secure builds, secrets management, dependency and artifact integrity) following Dev Sec Ops  best practices.
• Enable security monitoring, logging, and SIEM integration; support incident response and platform‑level threat detection.
• Support vulnerability management, secure patching, and compliance with security frameworks (e.g., ISO 27001, TISAX).
• Collaborate with engineering teams to build, operate, and continuously improve a reliable, scalable Azure/Kubernetes platform, including developer self‑service and operational support.

• Strong hands‑on experience with cloud security in Azure environments, including designing and implementing security controls.
• Proven experience implementing security through automation using Infrastructure as Code (Terraform), CI/CD pipelines, and policy‑as‑code.
• Hands‑on expertise with Kubernetes (preferably AKS) and microservices / event‑driven architectures.
• Experience with CI/CD and Git Ops practices (Azure Dev Ops or equivalent tools).
• Strong Linux fundamentals and scripting skills (Python and/or Shell) for automation; configuration management tools (e.g., Ansible) are a plus.
• Experience with monitoring, observability, and platform security tooling (e.g., Open Telemetry, Prometheus/Grafana, container security tools), with exposure to Dev Sec Ops  and compliance frameworks (ISO 27001, TISAX) considered an advantage.

• A unique opportunity combining the energy of a scale up with the power of BMW, Mercedes Benz Mobility & bp
• Working on products & services with a high social impact
• An international team of talented people who love what they do and live a collaborative spirit
• An open minded culture with room for growth and the freedom to bring in own ideas
• Subsidized gym membership
• Subsidized office lunch benefit
• Personal development budget for your professional growth
• Monthly mobility budget
• Up to 2 days of home office in a week
• Offsite/ team events & much more and modern, sunny offices in Berlin & Munich

… and of course the classics: delicious coffee & tea, fresh fruits and an office dog friendly environment
