We are now looking for a DevOps Engineer who wants to help develop the defense systems of the future in the air, naval, and land domains.

In this role, you will: 

  • Design, implement, and maintain CI/CD pipelines (e.g., Jenkins, GitLab CI).&#

  • Work with containerization and orchestration (Docker, Kubernetes). 

  • Automate infrastructure using tools such as Ansible, Terraform, or similar. 

  • Ensure that systems are secure, scalable, and monitored. 

  • Collaborate closely with development teams to improve delivery workflows and ensure efficient, high-quality deliveries. 

  • Participate in troubleshooting, performance analysis, and the improvement of existing systems. 

  • Work in a Linux environment and manage version control using Git.

Qualifications

We believe you have several years of experience with DevOps work in a Linux environment and thrive in a role where you get to work closely with development teams to create efficient, secure, and automated delivery flows. 

In addition, you have: 

  • Experience with CI/CD tools such as Jenkins, GitLab CI, or similar. 

  • Experience with containerization using Docker. 

  • Strong proficiency in version control using Git. 

  • An understanding of networking, security, and system monitoring. 

  • Very strong proficiency in Swedish and English. 

As a person, you are communicative, solution-oriented, and enjoy collaborating to drive improvements and find smart technical solutions. 

Desirable skills 

Experience in one or more of the following areas is a plus: 

  • Kubernetes or other orchestration platforms. 

  • Infrastructure as Code (IaC) with Terraform, Ansible, or similar tools. 

  • Cloud platforms such as Azure, AWS, or Google Cloud. 

  • Monitoring and log management, such as Prometheus, Grafana, or the ELK stack. 

  • Scripting and automation using Bash, Python, or Go. 

  • DevSecOps, such as secrets management, container scanning, and security auditing of CI/CD pipelines. 

  • Security-classified environments or work in the defense industry. 

This position operates within security-classified areas, so you will undergo drug testing, a security clearance review, and a background check in accordance with Chapter 3 of the Security Protection Act before employment canbegin.
