DevOps lead

It is highly probable that at some point in time your data has passed through technology from DigitalRoute. If you turn on the heating in your house, travel by airplane, buy a train ticket or make a call with your phone from anywhere in the world there is a great chance that the company behind these services use our technology to work with their data. You may not know about us, but the companies you trust to provide these daily services certainly do. The role is based out of our headquarter in the central of Stockholm.

We are looking for a DevOps Lead to join DigitalRoute's development leadership team and help us to 1) ramp up DevOps and continuous integration and delivery (CI/CD) practice across our development teams (Sweden, Malaysia and Bulgaria), all operating in an agile (Scrum) fashion and 2) ensure it is running and working. It is a unique opportunity to shape and define how we release our mission-critical software to some of the largest brands around the world, Coca-Cola, Volvo, VMware and Verizon to state a few.

• Be forward-looking and monitor industry trends and practices to ensure our release process remains current and can support new development trends
• Be a key member of DigitalRoute's ProdTech leadership team
