Senior OpenStack Architect (German-speaking)

Hello,
We are called People More because we treat our employees with respect, but also because the projects we work on are for people and should be easy and pleasant to use. We are technological, but we look at the bigger picture :)
The company is made up of people with a huge client base in the country and abroad, for whom we build projects from scratch (UX, UI, frontend, backend, mobile) or in part. We work directly for our clients and also support our partners in their own solutions. This ensures a wide range of projects and the ability to change! We work with clients all over the world.
For the project that we are working on with our partner, we are looking for Senior OpenStack Architect (German-speaking)

Your duties will include: 

• Designing, building, and implementing an OpenStack platform, including networking, storage, and compute infrastructure.
• Replacing the existing VMware environment and migrating workloads to the new OpenStack platform.
• Managing the lifecycle of Kubernetes clusters using Cluster API (CAPI).
• Developing and maintaining infrastructure automation using OpenTofu and Ansible.
• Contributing to architectural decisions to ensure platform scalability, stability, and reliability.
• Troubleshooting complex infrastructure issues and supporting the implementation of technical solutions.
• Coordinating technical activities with the customer's operations team, including collaboration during on-site visits in Germany.

Requirements that must be met:

• Several years of professional experience working with OpenStack, including architectural responsibility.
• Participation in at least two successfully completed OpenStack projects, each lasting a minimum of 9 months (verifiable experience required).
• Strong hands-on experience in designing, deploying, and maintaining OpenStack environments.
• Practical knowledge of Kubernetes and cluster lifecycle management using Cluster API (CAPI).
• Experience with infrastructure automation tools such as OpenTofu and Ansible.
• Solid knowledge of Linux environments.
• Ability to take ownership of technical and architectural decisions while remaining actively involved in implementation.
• Willingness to travel to Schwerin, Germany, for 3 days once per month.
• Very good German and Polish

What we offer:

• We are open and honest and we solve problems instead of generating them.
• Maybe it’s obvious, but we really respect our employees and associates. We used to be software developers, too, and we appreciate that job!
• A small team
• An international working environment and international projects
• Private medical care
• Sports card
• Training courses

• Remote working model with travel to Schwerin, Germany, for 3 days once per month.

Why it’s a good idea to work with People More?

• If you are not satisfied with your work or your tasks, we’ll find a way out together!
• If you get bored, we will offer you a new product and new, fascinating tasks
• We will work on your brand together: you will get an opportunity to attend conferences, including as a speaker, and we will help you publish in recognized magazines and online
• We will facilitate your access to challenges that are usually difficult to get
• At any time, you can talk directly to the board of People More—we talk your language because the company’s founders are software developers and designers!

What does the recruitment process look like?

• A friendly remote initial interview
• A remote technical talk
• The decision to work together!
