Staff DevOps Engineering (w/m/d) Build & AI-Ops

About the Role

As a Staff DevOps Engineer specializing in Build & AI-Ops, you will be the architect for Developer Velocity. Your primary goal is to eliminate every second of friction in the engineering lifecycle and ensure that a complex, multilingual project (C++/Node.js) feels as lightweight and responsive as a modern Greenfield app. You won't just manage servers; you'll be responsible for the “AI-Ops” infrastructure that enables our Specialists and Staff Engineers to work at triple the speed.

Responsibilities

• Environment Mastery: Design and operate a “5-minute onboarding” workflow using Docker and DevContainers. Ensure that “runs on my machine” is a reality for every new colleague.
• AI-Ops & RAG Management: Operate the team's local AI infrastructure, including Retrieval-Augmented-Generation (RAG) clusters, Cursor Skill Libraries, and individual documentation indexing that feeds our LLMs.
• The Bridge Pipeline: Automate and optimize the highly complex compile and hot-reload cycle between the OnlyOffice C++ core and the Node.js/JavaScript frontend.
• Autonomous CI/CD: Develop “intelligent” pipelines that not only report errors but also analyze logs using AI and automatically suggest (or directly apply) patches for fragile legacy build steps.
• Performance Guardrails: Implement “Continuous Profiling” in the build chain to detect 16ms frame budget violations before code even reaches a Pull Request.

Qualifications

• Excellent knowledge of Docker, GitHub Actions/Jenkins, and Makefile/CMake environments.
• Expertise in Python, Go, or Rust for building high-performance internal automation tools.
• Profound experience with modern web toolchains (Vite, Webpack, esbuild) and optimizing large JavaScript monorepos.
• Experience with vector databases or self-hosting LLMs (Ollama/LocalAI) is a significant plus.
• The AI Factor: You are the team's “Prompt Architect” for infrastructure. You utilize models like Claude Opus 4.6 Max and specialized DevOps Agents to automate routine operational work, focusing your human intelligence on systemic optimizations and creating a seamless “flow state” for the development team.
• The Gaming Advantage: Experience in AAA Game Build Engineering is particularly valuable. If you have managed automated pipelines for complex, cross-platform assets and codebases where “Build Time” and “Asset Cooking” are key KPIs, you possess the exact DNA we are looking for in this high-performance office suite.

Benefits

• Hybrid work model.
• Flexible working hours through trust-based working time.
• Subsidized canteen and various free drinks at some locations.
• Modern office spaces with very good transport connections.
• Various employee discounts for activities and products.
• Employee events such as summer and winter celebrations, as well as workshops.
• Numerous training and development opportunities.
• Various health offers, such as sports and health courses.
