Your duties
Trusted Shops develops SaaS solutions for over 30 million users and 30.000 companies all over Europe. Our product suite includes products such as the Trustmark, buyer protection and the experience feedback platform eTrusted. With our products we pursue the mission to enable trust between people and businesses in the digital age over the last 20 years.
Home of our product development is the Products & Engineering department, which consists of 14 cross-functional product teams across 3 product domains (Consumer, Business and Platform), working in an agile environment.
We are looking for a Cloud Engineer in our Platform Domain, who thrives in a creative, changing environment, loves to build great products, and is passionate about positively impacting the user experience.
It is a position for the Trustbadge and Integrations team, where we build the core product of Trusted Shops: the Trustbadge that is integrated in all shops.
The team consists of Frontend- and Backend Engineers, a Product Owner, QA, and an Agile Coach who work together and cross-functional on the same goal.
We rely on the "You build it, you own it" philosophy, where you take charge of shepherding changes through every stage until they go live in production.
Your Key Responsibilities as a Cloud Data Engineer (f/m/d):
In your role, you will need good experience in the implementation of Infrastructure as Code using Terraform with AWS. Your focus will be in supporting and enabling the team colleagues, but also being part of the implementation topics. You should know of the AWS well-architected framework, keep these best practices in mind, and advise the team on what to consider when building new applications or refactoring.
Our applications mostly use serverless architecture like AWS Lambda Functions in combination with AWS SQS, AWS SNS, and AWS API Gateway. You should be able to read logs and find errors within our infrastructure, and assist the developers regarding errors in our backend components which are mostly built with TypeScript.
A very good understanding of CI/CD, ideally implementing it with CircleCI, is a must. In addition to development, you'll also be involved in monitoring and automating aspects of our infrastructure.
Most important is your will to thrive and a positive mindset to learn new things but also to make the world a little better every day, together with your colleagues.

A Typical Day as a Cloud Data Engineer (f/m/d) at Trusted Shops:
- Starting your day with setting up your mobile working environment - or adjusting your table at the office.
- Opening your individual task manager and getting your mind into the stories you are working on at the moment - from short term operative to long term big stories being part of even larger epics.
- Meeting with the team in the daily standup and setting the stage for the collaborative work of the day. You’ll probably have a look at your backlog together - or your Kanban board or whatever style of agile collaboration the team favours.
- You continue working on the stories, tasks and bugs from the current sprint or the Kanban board. Do some focus time coding session alone or work on issues together in a pair or mob-programming session.
- Lunch break! Grabbing a bite at home with your SO or maybe gathering a few team members and colleagues and explore the restaurants around the office?
- In the office today? Maybe Waffle Day or Health Day? Don’t forget to grab freshly baked waffle or a Smoothie before getting back to your desk.
- Work sessions and maybe some meetings in the afternoon. It is completely up to you and the team how long and in which constellations and formats you work!
- Still in the office? Get a free drink on the rooftop terrace before going home, maybe? And remember: We don’t believe into working till the middle of the night here.
- Or was this your monthly self-education day? In which case, no meetings for you today, but a self-chosen agenda of learning and self-improvement.
