Are you always thinking of ways to improve and automate parts of your job? Can you defend against common bottle necks in today’s production pipelines to make an infrastructure shine?

The Mission

We are looking for a DevOps Engineer to further-develop our infrastructure for an ambitious unannounced project here in Stockholm Sweden.

As our DevOps Engineer, you’ll evaluate, adjust and deliver support for our production pipeline (builds, tools, configurations) as an embedded part in cross functional teams. You will be our guiding light for version control, data consistency and gain insight of the multiple build systems we use globally at Ubisoft. Furthermore, you will have opportunity to drive design and implementation of our project infrastructure, prototype and reiterate as needed, establishing a strong backbone to strengthen our platform.

Our motive

Setting your stage, we are creating strong autonomous teams with independent decision-making, freedom to try out new things and show why it works.

In this role, you’ll be working closely with our cross-functional teams in production (programmers, content creators, etc) and directly report to our IT Manager, tying the parts together. It will be important for you to create connections across the studio, create effortless channels of communication and manage daily interaction with the users of our services.
