(Senior) Infrastructure Engineer (m/f/x) - Object Storage (remote oder on-site)
While object storage itself is a fairly simple product, building and running it at scale is challenging. We want to offer our customers a S3-compatible API which they can use to upload their files like website assets, build artifacts, or nightly backups without the need to worry how and where their data is stored. And of course we want to offer that in the way Hetzner is famous for: with affordable pricing and great performance.
The position is remote within Germany and we also have an office in Unterföhring near Munich.
