Webeet · Berlin, Germany (Remote)

Responsible for the design, automation, and reliability of Webeet’s AWS cloud platform, supporting fast and stable software delivery while keeping infrastructure costs under control.
Design and operate cloud infrastructure using Terraform and CloudFormation, applying infrastructure-as-code practices to ensure consistency and traceability across environments.
Develop and maintain CI/CD pipelines (GitHub Actions, GitLab CI, Jenkins) that automate build, test, and deployment workflows and reduce release friction.
Drive the adoption of Docker and Kubernetes (EKS) to support scalable services, rolling deployments, and efficient resource usage.
Monitor and optimize cloud spending through continuous cost analysis, right-sizing, and capacity planning using AWS-native tooling.
Integrate security into delivery processes with automated vulnerability scanning, secrets management, and access controls to reduce operational risk.

DevSecOps Engineer - Project Coordinator

Sep 2025 – Dec 2025

Webeet · Berlin, Germany (Remote)

Led & mentored multiple DevSecOps intern squads (12-15 People) providing architectural direction & prioritization without hands‑on coding.
Ran structured office hours (2×/week) + ad‑hoc coaching to unblock Terraform / AWS / CI/CD and build autonomous problem solving.
Built onboarding playbooks, review rubric & runbooks: cut first‑PR turnaround from ~3 days to <1.5 and reduced revision cycles via structured PR reviews.
Standardized secure patterns (network segmentation, least‑privilege IAM, pipeline security) & enforced quality gates (plan, lint, security scan) in GitHub Actions.
Introduced decision & escalation logs + lightweight retros → fewer repeat questions & stronger knowledge retention.
