DevOps Specialist
At Mediaflow, we build smart tools for managing, storing and distributing digital media, helping organizations stay secure, structured, and efficient in their daily communication. As we continue to evolve our platform and scale our operations, we’re now looking for a hands-on DevOps Specialist with a background in development to join our growing tech team.
ABOUT US
Mediaflow is a Swedish tech company with a user-first approach and a deep belief in clean design, automation and long-term thinking. Our platform is trusted by hundreds of organizations, from public institutions to global enterprises. Our headquarters is in Uppsala, while most of our tech and product development takes place in Gothenburg, where this role will also be based.
We are currently a DevOps team of three, working closely with one of the founders and the CTO. We combine daily engineering work with a long-term vision of building a modern and reliable infrastructure, and we’re now looking for someone who can strengthen both perspectives.
THE ROLE
As a DevOps Specialist at Mediaflow, you’ll take an active role in designing and improving the tools and systems that run our platform, with an emphasis on infrastructure, observability and performance. Your expansive experience as a backend developer will come in handy, as you’ll also help shape internal tooling, automation and system integration.
You’ll work closely with product development and be part of a tight-knit, pragmatic team with a lot of autonomy. Our current stack includes Kubernetes, MySQL, and Ubuntu Linux, running on a mix of physical servers and cloud environments. You’ll be involved in everything from daily operations to architecture decisions.
Examples of responsibilities:
Operate and improve our Kubernetes clusters and Linux servers.
Maintain and monitor physical servers and network infrastructure.
Build and manage internal tools and services for the operations team.
Work with CI/CD flows and backup systems.
Ensure reliability, performance and observability across systems.
Occasionally visit our datacenters (e.g. Falkenberg) when needed.
Collaborate with development teams to ensure infrastructure readiness.
Be open to future on-call models with compensation.
THE TEAM
You’ll join a small, focused DevOps team with high seniority and a collaborative culture. The team is distributed, but we aim to meet regularly at the office in Gothenburg. While fully remote work is not a requirement, we expect you to be available for on-site visits approximately once per month.
Your qualifications
Must-have:
Strong experience with Linux system administration in production environments.
Deep understanding of Kubernetes and container orchestration.
Proficiency with network infrastructure and physical server hardware.
Solid programming background (e.g. Go, Python, Perl or backend development).
Comfort working with databases (e.g. MySQL) and data transport/metrics.
Experience with CI/CD pipelines and automation.
A pragmatic mindset and willingness to take ownership.
Good communication skills, English is the primary language used within the team.
It’s a bonus if you also bring experience with infrastructure-as-code tools like Terraform or Ansible, and a solid background in backend development, ideally with around five years of hands-on coding experience. Familiarity with observability tools and alerting systems is also valuable. A driver’s license is useful, as occasional visits to our data centers may be needed. While a university degree is not required, we value proven, practical experience in the field.
BENEFITS
High-impact role in a stable and growing product company.
Small, autonomous team with a modern tech stack.
Pragmatic working culture, structured where it adds value.
Hybrid setup with flexibility to work both on-site and remotely.
Office located in central Gothenburg.
