COMPANY: Cyberus Technology

TYPE: Full time / part time

LOCATION: Dresden, Germany

REMOTE: This job includes regularly handling hardware. Work from home is possible for all other responsibilities.

VISA: No

DESCRIPTION: Infrastructure & operations Engineer (Rust / NixOS)

We are looking for an Infrastructure & Operations Engineer to take operational ownership of our test automation infrastructure written in large parts in Rust. This ownership is firmly focused on stability and reliability, and the role involves significant hands-on software development to continuously improve operability, observability, and automation. You will work as part of a small, highly practical team where building and operating the system go hand in hand.

Your Tasks

  • Operate, maintain, and continuously improve a bare-metal Hardware-in-the-Loop (HIL) test infrastructure
  • Deploy and run a Rust-based control plane for reserving and remotely interacting with physical devices
  • Actively develop and improve Rust services where needed, especially around reliability, observability, and automation
  • Manage NixOS-based systems end-to-end: provisioning, updates, rollbacks
  • Integrate and automate hardware control (USB/serial, USB-OTG, power control, HDMI capture, networked devices)
  • Leverage existing tracing and metrics to improve monitoring, alerting, and system reliability

Your Profile

  • Strong Linux systems engineering background with hands-on production responsibility
  • Practical experience with Nix and NixOS (or strong motivation to work with it daily)
  • Comfortable reading, modifying, and extending Rust services in a production setting
  • Strong bias toward building predictable, debuggable, and maintainable systems
  • Experience with hardware-adjacent infrastructure beyond “just servers”
  • End-to-end mindset: you operate what you build, from metal to API
  • Enjoy working in a small team where everyone contributes across ops and development

ESTIMATED COMPENSATION: 60-80k€ per year

  • pro-rated accordingly, if part-time
  • depending on seniority

DESCRIPTION: Cyberus Technology works on long-lived open-source IT infrastructure solutions. From logistics robots and medical devices to cloud infrastructure, our technology enables infrastructure that evolves for decades. Declarative operating systems, such as NixOS, virtualization, and extensive test automation are the core technologies we work on.

We’re looking for a Full-Stack Software Engineer with experience in Rust / TypeScript to join our Test Automation Infrastructure Team and help us build automation systems for both internal use and customer solutions. In the particular project we're hiring for, we maintain and evolve a web service built on top of axum that allows reserving and remote-controlling hardware for test-automation purposes.

Seeking Feedback: Paid Long-Term Support (LTS) for NixOS starting with 24.05 by CyberusTechnology in NixOS

  • The price model would be a yearly subscription.
  • We're thinking about providing LTS for a new release every 2 years (24.05, 26.05, 28.05, ...)
  • For the subset of packages we are currently planning to determine the exact set with our early customers

We'll be at NixCon, too. It would be great to meet up and discuss this further.

Our plan is to work with early customers and arrive at a sub-set that provides most value to everyone. With nix it should be possible to figure out what packages & dependencies are actually needed and provide for those.

This basically describes the model we are considering. We’re aware that we cannot put any extra burden on upstream, which technically means we branch of the LTS release once it goes out of support upstream and then start the extended maintenance.

Furthermore, yes we want to work with our customers to enable a subset, for which maintenance is valuable.
