Job technologies
Your role in the team
- Architecture & Operations: You design, implement, and maintain complex network structures for our own services and client projects.
- Virtualization & SDN: You oversee and optimize Software-Defined Networking (SDN) in our cloud environment via OpenStack Neutron.
- Routing & Switching: You handle hardware and software, with a primary focus on MikroTik systems.
- Modern Networking: You integrate and manage secure, decentralized overlays (e.g., using Headscale / WireGuard).
- Troubleshooting & Performance: You analyze complex routing or performance issues on Layer 2 and Layer 3 and resolve them sustainably.
Our expectations of you
Qualifications
- Network DNA: You understand networks from the ground up. Protocols are not just a theoretical concept for you, but a daily tool.
- Linux know-how: You are comfortable with the Linux command line. If you know how to analyze network interfaces, bridges, or routing tables directly under Linux via CLI, that is a huge advantage.
- Pragmatism: You seek the most elegant technical solution, not the one with the most marketing slides.
Experience
- Core Routing & Transport: Solid experience with BGP and MPLS is a prerequisite for this position.
- MikroTik & OpenStack: You have already worked actively with MikroTik (RouterOS) and ideally have experience with OpenStack Neutron (or comparable SDN infrastructures).
What we offer
- Exciting tech stack: No rigid vendor lock-in. We work with open source, MikroTik, Linux virtualization, and modern VPN solutions like Headscale.
- Freedom & Responsibility: With us, you can contribute architecturally. Good ideas are implemented, not managed away.
- Workplace with quality of life: Our air-conditioned office with ergonomic workstations is located in the charming 2nd district near the Danube Canal (U1, U4) and features a fantastic terrace - perfect for outdoor coffee breaks.
- Environmentally friendly commuting: We cover the costs for your Wiener Linien annual ticket (public transport ticket), so you can commute through Vienna comfortably and free of charge.
- Flexibility & Trust: Flexible working hours, home office options, and free use of our office spaces (even if you want to work undisturbed on a project outside of core hours).
- Hardware as desired: You will receive the tools / hardware / software that enable you to work most productively.
- Fair Compensation: An attractive salary that reflects your actual qualifications and experience. For legal reasons, we point out that the collective agreement minimum salary for this position is EUR 3,724 gross per month, but we pay significantly above this depending on experience and expertise.
