Wanna play devops with us?

We build something that's probably like the best travel- and tourism e-commerce solution on the market. We call it the Citybreak Enterprise. It's a SaaS-platform used by tourism organizations, accommodations and tours and activity vendors like ski operators worldwide for reservations, property management, packaging, finance, BI and loads of integrations to platforms like booking.com, hotels.com and Expedia.com. In short - we are an IT product company in one of the world's most fun businesses!

Your zen is probably servers. Perhaps you take comfort in putting a SAN together. And your comfort zone may be behind the keyboard. But you are ready to level up.

Then consider this job to be the first treasure you encounter in the game of devops!  Missions in the Visit Group game can be like:

• Hosting our public/private cloud hybrid and level up continuous delivery
• Defend your castle from peasant (i.e. our developers) attacks and manage duels (IaC) with other tribes (e.g. our hosting partner and tech suppliers) trespassing on to your territory
• Find and mine gold and visit the marketplace to bargain for new weaponry and armour (Maintaining and managing projects on licenses and upgrades of storage and capacity - including some budget issues, yes)
• Find your way through heavily mined courses (Disaster Recovery-plans)

And this comes with game play elements like RabbitMQ, mongodb, Elastic Search, Influxdb, Grafana, Kibana, Teamcity, VMWare, vSphere, SQL server etc.

And to fight the boss, you probably need to have gained or collected:

• Some 1000 hours experience from platform games (hosting things for a product company)
• Respect in your clan from succeeding with missions like the ones mentioned above (You might be "junior" but you are dead serious at work)
• A magic shield to protect you when the mages start casting cloud hosting spells like Azure (no explanation needed)

Of course we know that there is no such thing as academic studies or some kind of Hogwart's to learn everything about the power needed to fill this role. And just because of that, we want you to have a strong motivation to learn and develop. 

A structured way of developing our environments and being able to combine the doer role with purchasing and project management is more important than formal education and exactly the right experience. Attaching gifs of cats like the one below won't help you. Even if they are cute. Sorry.
