  • You have deep, hands-on expertise with AWS, Kubernetes, GitLab CI/CD, and are confident operating Helm and ArgoCD in production.
  • You are fluent in Infrastructure as Code practices (Terraform) and approach automation as a default.
  • You think in terms of resilience, observability, scalability, and security by default.
  • You are a strong communicator who enjoys working closely with engineers, product managers, and stakeholders to solve technical and organizational challenges.
  • You care about building meaningful observability and monitoring systems that give clear visibility into system health and performance, using tools like Prometheus, Grafana.
  • Fluency in English (spoken and written) is required.
  • Experience with security standards and audits (e.g., ISO 27001) is considered a plus.
In addition to professional skills, we care about a cultural match as well. So we also appreciate: 
  • openness and sincerity; 
  • positivity and proactiveness; 
  • team-first approach and a great feedback culture.
Why us?
  • Exceptional Team: Become part of a skilled and diverse team offering endless opportunities for growth.
  • Fair compensation: Competitive salary above market average.
  • Remote option: Choose to work from home, in our beautiful Munich office near Ostbahnhof, or fully remote within Germany or Poland (with occasional trips to Munich headquarters).
  • Flexible Working Hours: You know when and how to work best, it’s your choice.
  • Generous time off: Enjoy 28 days of paid vacation per year for a full-time role
  • Supportive Environment: Excel in a supportive and inclusive workplace.

About us
Scompler has been a real success story since its inception in May 2018: We have been able to acquire more than 250 customers with 5 to 500 users, we have a total of around 25,000 registered users, and customers range from NGOs to global corporations, including six DAX companies. The best-known names include Merck, Deutsche Post DHL, ADAC, Commerzbank and AOK, as well as Fridays for Future, UNICEF and Johanniter. We particularly enjoy working with NGOs, and time and again we also support great companies on a pro bono basis. We are currently a team of about 50 people spread all over the world, in Germany we are about 20. We have just received seven million investment and want to take off.

We think ...
... there is hardly a more exciting company in Germany at the moment for all communications professionals who love strategic communications! We have a great, dedicated and international team, there are lots of opportunities to get involved, and there are lots of opportunities to grow and learn. Because we want nothing less than to change communication: Away from a purely technical process where it's all about reach and engagement, but about meaning and significance. We're constantly looking for ways to help companies create better content more easily together!

Want to be a part of it?
We need a whole lot of hands and minds. We want solid skills and abilities in all of the above areas, and we welcome new and creative approaches, too! If one of the following short descriptions appeals to you, please get in touch using the form below - and then let's talk!

Preferably from Munich, but equally well in the Frankfurt area or from the home office Our headquarters are in Munich. It would be ideal if you were from Munich. And we still have a shared office in Frankfurt, where the smaller part of our team is currently located. But if it's a good fit, it's no problem for us if you're based somewhere else in the world. Then we work together remotely, and you would only come to Munich once a month so that we can meet regularly in person.

Über uns
Scompler hat seit der Gründung im Mai 2018 eine echte Erfolgsgeschichte hingelegt: Wir haben mehr als 400 Kunden mit 5 bis 500 Anwendern gewinnen können, insgesamt haben wir rund 25.000 registrierte Nutzer, und die Spanne der Kunden reicht von NGOs bis zu weltweit agierenden Konzernen, inklusive sieben DAX-Firmen. Zu den bekanntesten Namen gehören die Deutsche Post DHL, der ADAC, die Commerzbank sowie die AOK, aber auch Fridays for Future, UNICEF oder die Johanniter. Vor allem die Arbeit mit den NGOs macht uns viel Freude, immer wieder betreuen wir auch tolle Unternehmen pro bono. Wir sind aktuell ein Team von gut 60 Leuten in München, Frankfurt und Krakau, in Deutschland sind wir 30. Bis Ende dieses Jahres werden wir rund 80 Leute sein. Wir haben jetzt gerade sieben Millionen Investment erhalten und wollen durch­starten. 
 
 Wir denken … 
… es gibt im Moment kaum ein spannenderes Unternehmen in Deutschland für alle Kommunikationsprofis, die strategische Kommunikation lieben! Wir haben ein tolles, engagiertes und internationales Team, es gibt bei uns ganz viel Möglichkeiten sich einzubringen, und es gibt ganz viele Gelegenheiten zu wachsen und zu lernen. Denn wir wollen nichts weniger, als die Kommunikation zu verändern: Weg von einem rein technischen Prozess, wo es nur um Reichweite und Engagement geht, sondern um Sinn und Bedeutung. Wir suchen ständig nach Wegen, wie wir Unternehmen helfen, einfacher gemeinsam besseren Content zu erstellen! 
 
 Magst Du dabei sein? 
Wir brauchen ganz viele Hände und Köpfe. Wir wünschen uns in allen oben genannten Bereichen fundierte Fertigkeiten und Fähigkeiten, und wir freuen uns auch über neue und kreative Ansätze! Wenn Dich eine der folgenden Kurzbeschreibungen anspricht, melde Dich doch bitte über das Formular unten – und dann lass uns sprechen! 
 
 Bevorzugt aus München, aber ebenso gut im Raum Frankfurt oder aus dem Home Office Unser Hauptsitz ist in München. Ideal wäre es, wenn Du aus München kommen würdest. Und wir haben noch ein Shared Office in Frankfurt, in dem der kleinere Teil unseres Teams aktuell sitzt. Aber wenn es gut passt, ist es für uns auch kein Problem, wenn Du an irgendeinem anderen Ort der Welt sitzt. Dann arbeiten wir remote zusammen, und Du würdest nur ein Mal im Monat nach München kommen, dass wir uns auch persönlich regelmäßig treffen.
