We’re really excited to be building a small, thoughtful and effective TechOps team at Octopus.
We’re looking for a knowledgeable and experienced TechOps Architect to help shape how we support people across the business - someone who can lead with clarity, build with empathy, and bring a mix of technical depth and sound judgment.
There’s loads to get stuck into, from identity management and scripting to device management and scalable tooling, areas where most of our work sits and where we need thoughtful, sustainable solutions.
You’ll play an important role in shaping how we work: setting direction without overcomplicating things, supporting the team with care, and balancing technical curiosity with a down-to-earth mindset. We’re after someone who can spot where things could be better, help others grow, and make improvements that stick.
If you’re excited about solving meaningful problems and shaping how TechOps supports a growing, people-first business – we’d love to chat.
What is TechOps?
A more modern, more lean version of a traditional enterprise IT team. We cover everything from what most people would call “1st line support” all the way up to high-level strategic planning, and everything in between.
We focus on advising rather than enforcing, and give people the autonomy to work with technology to solve their problems in the way that works best for them. We’re an autonomous team who look after a wide range of technology across the business. We empower teams to do the best work they can whilst keeping things running efficiently in the background.
We tackle big problems and the breadth of work is huge. Dealing with ambiguity is a key part of working in TechOps, and every day will be a new and exciting one, working on varying challenges across the company.
We have a cloud-first approach to everything we do. This allows us to scale quickly and focus on things where we can add the most value. No on-prem AD here!
About the role As a TechOps Architect,
You will be responsible for high-level strategic and architectural technical decisions around the business. We also strongly believe that no matter what role you have within TechOps, it’s still important to keep your ear to the ground and see, first hand, the problems our users are facing, and the impact that decisions you make have on everyone at Octopus. This means you’ll spend some of your time helping out with day-to-day “1st, 2nd and 3rd line” support.
You’ll have a wide breadth of knowledge and experience across all areas of IT, but also an immensely deep understanding of many of those areas too. You’ll likely be an acknowledged expert among your peers in Identity and Access Management, and have a passion for hacking and building. You will have interest and/or experience in related areas like software engineering, security, platform architecture, UI/UX design etc.
Roles that you might currently be in: IAM Engineer, Tech Lead, Lead/Senior Support Engineer, Site Reliability Engineer, Systems Architect, Systems Designer, Senior Systems Engineer, Workplace Technology Architect, Solutions Architect.

ABOUT THE TEAM AND ROLE: At Talon.One, we're building the infrastructure behind modern promotions, loyalty, and gamification for some of the world's most forward-thinking brands. As our engineering organization scales, we are introducing a new Technical Governance and Enablement layer that sits right between Product Engineering, Architecture, and Platform/Infra. We are looking for a Technical Program Manager to become the operational engine, stakeholder shield, and planning partner for this critical new function. Production Engineering defines how production is run across R&D - from incidents and releases to operational workflows, reliability initiatives, and the systems that help engineers operate safely at scale. We treat this domain as an internal product. This is not a customer-facing role. It is about bringing structure, focus, and predictability to a highly technical team, turning ambitious reliability and architectural strategies into realistic, data-driven execution plans. You will remove the coordination and operational overhead for engineering leaders so they can focus on scaling and mentoring the team. ONCE YOU ARE HERE YOU WILL: * Work hand-in-hand with leadership to design, document, and roll out foundational engineering programs from scratch (e.g., modernizing our incident management framework, on-call training, blameless post-mortem culture, and release governance) * Standardize incoming channels (Slack, Shortcut, Incident Follow-ups, GTM feedback etc.) to manage ad-hoc chaos, triage operational requests, and protect the focus of SREs and TechOps so they can deliver deep project work. Establish a clear operational intake process ("front door") for the team * Drive quarterly planning, backlog refinement, sprint readiness, and execution tracking for reliability and Ops initiatives. Own the Production Engineering backlog and continuously improve incident response and release processes * Coordinate work across Engineering, Platform, Architecture, Product, Support, and Post-sales, managing dependencies and surfacing delivery risks early * Configure and optimize project management tools (like Jira/Trello) to build clean tracking dashboards and automate intake workflows * Design the communication loops, tracking dashboards, and engineering reviews that give senior stakeholders clear insight into operational health, incident follow-ups, and tech-debt remediation * Evolve the metrics (SLOs/SLIs, MTTR, deployment velocity, tech-debt ratios) that guide how we balance shipping new business features with maintaining absolute system reliability * Enable Architects and engineering leadership with the operational data and planning insights needed for effective capacity planning and prioritization WHAT WE NEED YOU TO BRING TO THE TABLE: * Proven experience as a Technical Program Manager or Product Manager within Platform, Infrastructure, SRE, DevOps, or Core Engineering Ecosystems. You understand CI/CD pipelines, cloud infrastructure, and observability * Direct experience defining or revamping incident management, post-incident review practices, or release governance frameworks * Operates effectively in ambiguity, building operational scaffolding from scratch. Comfortable in daily tactical loops with SREs and long-term strategic planning with architects * Building high-performing engineering processes and leading organizational change that enables teams to scale, adopt new ways of working, and deliver * Exceptional ability to manage complex cross-team dependencies and negotiate priorities across Product, Engineering, Platform, and Support * Experience translating raw engineering pain points and incident logs into structured, data-backed business cases for technical debt capacity * Nice to have: Deep familiarity with Site Reliability Engineering concepts (Error Budgets, SLOs, SLIs, MTTA/MTTR) * Nice to have: Experience in a high-growth, high-throughput B2B SaaS environment WHAT'S IN IT FOR YOU: * 90+ team of engineers, product managers and product designers in Berlin * Leaders with 8+ years of experience building our promotions engine * €1,000 annual learning budget and free German language courses to boost your skills * 30 days of annual leave, plus extra paid days for your birthday and moving day * Home office setup budget, a monthly home office allowance * Freedom to work from abroad for up to 90 days worldwide! * Mental health support with nilo.health and a discounted Urban Sports Club membership * 20% company subsidy on your pension contributions * Subsidised BVG public transport ticket and a dog-friendly Berlin office where your furry friend is welcome * Lease your ideal bike through BusinessBike
