###start

Join our Observability team as a working student. Gain hands-on experience with modern monitoring tools, support stable platforms, and grow your engineering skills—curiosity beats experience.

What You'll Be Doing

  • Help maintain and operate our observability platform including Grafana dashboards, Prometheus metrics, Splunk, Loki, and Seq log management,
  • Support onboarding of new teams - guide colleagues through our monitoring setup and best practices,
  • Provide first-level user support for the observability stack: answer questions, troubleshoot issues, and escalate when needed,
  • Contribute to the continuous improvement of dashboards, alerting rules, and log pipelines,
  • Assist with documentation - keep runbooks, how-to guides, and tool wikis up to date,
  • Explore and evaluate new features in our tooling, propose enhancements, and help test changes,
  • Work alongside engineers on day-to-day infrastructure and monitoring tasks in a Linux environment.


What You Bring

  • Currently enrolled in Computer Science, IT, or a related field,
  • Basic Linux knowledge (navigating the terminal, reading logs, understanding processes),
  • Genuine interest in monitoring, infrastructure, or DevOps topics,
  • Good communication skills - able to explain technical topics to non-technical colleagues,
  • Structured and reliable work style, comfortable working independently,
  • Any prior exposure to Grafana, Prometheus, Splunk, Loki, or similar tools is a bonus - but not required,
  • Very good English skills (B2), both written and spoken.

No prior professional experience required - curiosity and a willingness to learn are what matter most.


What You Get

  • Hands-on experience with a modern, production observability stack used by real engineering teams,
  • Mentorship from experienced engineers in monitoring and infrastructure,
  • Flexible working hours that fit around your studies (approx. 20 hrs/week),
  • The opportunity to take ownership of sub-projects and see your contributions in production,
  • A collaborative team that takes learning seriously.
