Infrastructure Platform Engineer - Ebike

Job Description

At Bosch eBike Systems, we are shaping the future of connected and intelligent cycling. Our mission is to build smart, secure, and sustainable solutions that transform the riding experience for millions of people worldwide.

As our software ecosystem grows in complexity, we are transforming how we test: moving from isolated hardware setups to One Big Virtual Device Farm — a unified, software-defined infrastructure where developers and testers across global sites can access hardware-in-the-loop (HIL) environments as seamlessly as cloud resources.

As an Infrastructure Platform Engineer, you will help turn our physical test infrastructure into a scalable, automated, cloud-like platform. Working at the intersection of hardware and software, you will enable reliable, always-available test environments that support faster development cycles and dependable daily releases.

Your contribution to something big: 

• Remote Provisioning & Zero-Touch Automation: Design and implement automated workflows for remote OS deployment and configuration of Raspberry Pi devices using PXE, systemd, and Ansible.
• Infrastructure as Code (IaC) & Configuration Management: Develop, maintain, and scale configuration management solutions for globally distributed test environments using Ansible and Python.
• Virtualization & Platform Operations: Administer, optimize, and scale on-premises virtualization platforms (e.g., Proxmox VE) to host critical services and virtualized test environments.
• Linux Systems Engineering & Security: Act as a Linux expert by optimizing kernel performance, tuning system behavior, and managing secure networking configurations (e.g., iptables/nftables).
• Edge Infrastructure Services: Deploy and maintain essential infrastructure services such as DHCP, DNS, PXE, and HTTP, ensuring reliable operation of the hardware fleet.
• Monitoring, Observability & Reliability: Build and maintain monitoring and alerting systems (e.g. Prometheus, Grafana) to ensure high availability and performance of the test infrastructure.
