Job Description

We are looking for an experienced project manager with a strong background in agile methodologies.

About you:

You have an engineering background, maybe a Bachelor's or Master's degree in Business Management, Engineering, Computer Sciences, or equivalent proof of experience in the relevant fields.

You have worked as a project manager for typically 4-6 years and know the expectations in this job. Some solid education in this field, like a PMP/PMI, SCRUM master or product owner certification is a plus but not required. Experience counts more than certifications.

You’ll be working in open source, mostly in projects around Kubernetes. Some track record in these fields is very welcome. If you’ve done some development work, tell us what you worked on and maybe even share with us your Github repository with a project that shows what you’ve built.

About us:

Always open. Our code, our culture, our opportunities. Leading open innovation without limits. We are SUSE.

Open source is in our genes. All software development happens in the public, we collaborate with and contribute to many open source projects. We offer access to the newest technologies and hardware.

We offer a flexible work location and competitive salary as well as a wide range of employee benefits aligned with the local market.

We are open in our roots and open in our approach, striving to be the most trusted open innovator in the World. Openness extends beyond our technology. Our vibrant community thrives on diversity and connectivity without borders.

We’re an international company, our communication happens in English, both in written and verbal form.

About your application to this job:

We’ve seen many applications that simply take this job description and input this into ChatGPT or another similar tool that merely repeats what we’re looking for. What we need starts with a self-written, clear and crisp application letter that convinces us why we should hire you and no one else. Your CV fits on a single page and doesn’t state the obvious duties of a project manager but points out what your achievements are and what you’ve learned through failure and has made you proud.

We are looking forward to reading your CV and arranging an interview with you.
