Join us as our new Platform Engineer, Novonesis
You will join a collaborative international team dedicated to driving innovation and leveraging technology to propel Novonesis forward. The Platform Engineering Unit ensures that Novonesis' Developer Platform (NDP) serves as the foundation for scalable, maintainable, and secure software development.
We believe in empowering team members with the freedom to self-organize around their tasks. What matters most to us is delighting our stakeholders with high-quality software built using our modern tech stack—how you achieve that is entirely up to you.
Welcome to Platform Engineering, Part of Digital Solutions & Development (IT)
Our broader team, Digital Solutions & Development, delivers and supports reliable digital solutions while providing the technical foundation and consulting needed to help stakeholders efficiently, securely, and effortlessly build and manage digital applications.
Here are just a few examples of the solutions our team is working on:
The corporate website, Novonesis.com
The internal NovonesisGPT, enabling our colleagues to use OpenAI models in a safe and compliant way
eCommerce platform and customer portal, providing a one-stop shop for our customers for purchasing and servicing
Internal and customer-facing calculators, helping customers optimize the use of our products
Solutions for production sites, ensuring yield control and operational efficiency
An AI-powered image generation tool, allowing customers to produce an image inspired by the sensation of tasting one of our samples
Interesting, right?
But wait, there is more: we know that building great solutions starts with supporting the people behind them. That’s why work-life balance is one of our core values—it’s not just a buzzword to us. We offer best-in-class benefits, including a comprehensive pension plan, health and life insurance, parental leave, and care leave. But it doesn’t stop there. We provide flexible working hours and a hybrid setup, allowing you to work from our offices in Hørsholm or Vesterbro, as well as combine it with working from home.
We hope this flexibility will help you thrive outside of work—whether that means having time for your favorite hobby, spending time with your kids, caring for a pet, or being there for a loved one.
In This Role, You Will Make an Impact By:
- Design, build, and maintain our Internal Developer Platform (IDP) on AWS & Kubernetes (EKS)
- Onboard new product teams and support existing users with platform usage, deployment workflows, and incident response
- Maintain GitOps workflows using ArgoCD, GitHub, and GitHub Actions
- Automate platform provisioning, service templates, and CI/CD pipelines to reduce cognitive load on developers
- Stay current with CNCF trends, evaluating and introducing tech to improve our platform
- Partner with security, frontend, and backend teams to ensure reliable, secure, and scalable delivery practices
- Continuously improve platform observability, reliability, and cost-efficiency
To succeed you must:
- Deep experience with AWS, EKS, and Terraform
- Hands-on experience with ArgoCD, GitHub, and GitHub Actions
- Proven track record in building and operating platform tooling used by other engineering teams
- Strong communication and documentation skills — you know how to support developers and simplify complex systems
However, we believe technology can be learned, but attitude cannot. If you’re excited about this role and think you’re a cultural fit, we encourage you to apply—even if you don’t check every box.
Application deadline: 27th August 2025. Applications will be reviewed on an ongoing basis, so we encourage you to apply as soon as possible.
Location: Our team is dynamic and flexible, with members distributed across our offices in Hørsholm and our IT HUB in Vesterbro (Carlsberg Byen). We also embrace hybrid setups, offering the flexibility to work from home as part of your routine.

Novozymes has combined with Chr. Hansen to become Novonesis: linkedin.com/company/novonesis.
This global biosolutions company of 10,000 people is transforming how the world produces, consumes and lives. In 30-plus industries, its biosolutions help businesses meet their needs and the needs of our planet.
Novozymes was formed in 2000 when Novo Nordisk split into three companies: Novo Nordisk A/S, Novozymes A/S and Novo A/S. Novozymes was the world leader in biological solutions with a commitment to Rethink Tomorrow. It served 130 markets with enzymatic, microbial and advanced protein solutions. The company’s solutions enabled higher agricultural yields, low-temperature washing, energy-efficient production, renewable fuel and many other benefits.
In December 2022, Novozymes and Chr. Hansen entered into an agreement to create a leading global biosolutions partner by combining the two companies. The goal was to unleash the full potential of biosolutions and generate significant value for all stakeholders and society. The combination was completed on January 29, 2024 and Novonesis was born. The name means ‘a new beginning’ and is derived from the Greek word ‘genesis’. It reflects a new era where we’ll better our world with biology.
