Staff DevOps Engineer

ppbHexagon Robotics /b is a division of Hexagon – a global leader in precision measurement. The division develops humanoid robots for industrial sectors to address labor shortages and accelerate the transition from automation to autonomy. Our first humanoid, AEON, was launched in June 2025 and is already in pilots with five customers. /p pWe are looking for a bStaff DevOps Engineer /b to help evolve the platform that powers our robotics stack: from developer laptops through CI clusters to production robots. In this role, you will make our infrastructure observable and dependable, drive engineering effectiveness across the company, and harden our CI/CD and build systems against outages and cost drift.

Observability is a central theme: we are expanding our use of Grafana and Prometheus and investing in the broader modern observability stack, and you will be a driving force behind that work. /p h3Your Mission /h3 ul liOwn our observability stack end-to-end.

Grafana and Prometheus today, and the broader modern observability ecosystem (metrics, logs, traces, profiles) as it grows. /li liDesign dashboards, alerting strategies, and SLO/SLI models that engineering teams actually rely on /li liHarden CI/CD reliability at scale, modern test pyramid enforcement, artifact reuse, per-tier test jobs, hardware-in-the-loop coverage, and resilience against third-party provider outages (Nixbuild.net, Cachix, Artifactory, GitLab) /li liContribute to our Nix-based build infrastructure, cache topology (Cachix proxy, on-cluster caches, ccache backends), build reproducibility, and evaluation performance /li liDrive engineering effectiveness through DORA / SPACE metrics, flaky-test dashboards, “infra vs. code” failure attribution, and a Grafana observability layer that the whole org can rely on /li liDesign and operate a resilient CI cluster: dedicated

nodepools, isolation, I/O performance on AKS, and CI on edge hardware /li liAct as a role model for clean software engineering processes.

Well-scoped merge requests, thoughtful reviews, sound testing habits, and clear technical writing that others can learn from /li liMentor DevOps engineers and functional-squad “DevOps champions,” and elevate DevOps thinking across teams so best practices become defaults rather than exceptions /li /ul h3Your Skillset /h3 ul liFamiliarity with Nix / NixOS in a production build system, including binary caches (Cachix, nixbuild.net) and Nix-based devshells /li liBroader observability ecosystem experience e.g. Loki, Tempo, Mimir, InfluxDB, OpenTelemetry, Pyroscope, eBPF-based tooling, or comparable stacks /li liFamiliarity with GitOps (ArgoCD or Flux) /li liBackground in ROS 2, C++ / CMake, or robotics build systems /li liExperience with hardware-in-the-loop test infrastructure and fleet management (Ansible or equivalent) for edge devices such as Jetsons /li liExposure to DORA / SPACE metrics

programs and engineering-effectiveness tooling /li /ul h3What Defines You /h3 ul liPragmatic, structured, and execution-focused: you design, decide, and adapt quickly while keeping an eye on the second-order effects of platform choices /li liA force multiplier: you make the engineers around you more effective, whether through mentoring, review, better tooling, or clear documentation /li liA true team player who communicates crisply across boundaries with functional squads and engineering leadership /li liSelf-driven, solution-oriented, and comfortable owning ambiguous, cross-cutting problems end-to-end /li liCurious mindset with a genuine appetite for diving deep into low-level infrastructure problems and pulling back out to the strategic view /li /ul h3What You’ll Get /h3 ul liFlexible working hours and a hybrid model for real work-life balance /li liCHF 500 mobility credit for

sustainable commuting /li liBonus system strong pension contributions /li liTailored training development opportunities /li liRelocation support for a smooth start /li liDiscounts on health, mobility entertainment /li liTeam events and a flat hierarchy where your voice counts /li liA warm, international culture built on respect and collaboration /li /ul /p
