About Working at envelio Too easy is boring! Together, we are on a mission to drive forward the energy transition. We love what we do, and we are unafraid to dive in. We believe in taking ownership of our work and in continuously growing and evolving. In short: own it, love it, grow with it. We are a humble team of coffee and maté lovers with over 20 nationalities. With our geek humor, our love for emojis and random facts is only natural. Over 150 envelians are already on board. Dive in and thrive! Your Role As Platform Operations Engineer (all genders), you are responsible for the reliable operation, monitoring, and deployment of envelio’s software solutions in complex customer environments. You ensure that updates, fixes, and new versions of the Intelligent Grid Platform (IGP) are deployed smoothly across cloud, on-prem, and operational technology (OT) environments. A core part of your role is the day-to-day operation of customer systems, including monitoring system health, handling incidents, and coordinating effective incident resolution. You actively contribute to stable 24/7 operations by detecting issues early, responding to incidents, and ensuring clear communication and handovers. You work at the intersection of engineering, operations, and customers. In close collaboration with customer IT and OT teams, you help clarify operational models, understand existing infrastructure, and ensure that our software runs reliably and securely in real-world grid environments.
