SYSTEM ENGINEER – WINDOWS | CITRIX (m/f/d)

Location: Frankfurt am Main (Hybrid | 2–3 days remote)

Languages: Fluent German (C1) & Strong English (B2)

We’re not here for ordinary. Neither are you.

You’re not the kind of Engineer who wants to clock in, babysit a stale server room, and disappear into the beige. You’re looking for technical theatre, for ownership, for real impact.

We’re hiring on behalf of a thriving Frankfurt-based IT powerhouse, not a startup playing dress-up, but a modern midsize company with real clients, real infrastructure, and real problems to solve. They deliver 24/7 IT services for brands you know, systems you use, and platforms that can’t afford to blink.

This isn’t a role for checkbox chasers. It’s for someone who speaks Citrix like a second language, eats Windows Server for breakfast, and thrives in the eye of the digital storm.

What Makes This Different?

• A hybrid model that respects your time and trust (50% remote, no micromanaging).
• A technical playground that values hands-on mastery over PowerPoint puffery.
• A flat culture where even the board speaks geek, and they’ll know your name.
• A team of specialists, not generalists. Think fewer meetings, more building.

Your Daily Theatre

• Operate, optimise, and elevate high, availability Citrix environments.
• Maintain a modern Microsoft-based server landscape (2016–2022).
• Dive deep into Exchange (preferably clustered), MS SQL, and other apps that power enterprise-grade stability.
• Collaborate across hosting, infrastructure, and network teams.
• Occasionally face clients, but your work speaks louder than your wardrobe.

Who You Are

• 3+ years in IT operations, or 5+ years in another IT path with grit.
• You’ve seen the Citrix battlefield and lived to automate another day.
• You actually know Windows Server, not just where the Control Panel lives.
• You’ve been the admin, not the observer, especially in Exchange, MS SQL.
• Fluent in German (C1). Conversational in English (B2). (Both are deal-breakers.)

Bonus Points If You Know...

• Ansible, SCCM, PowerShell, or other automation artillery.
• What it means to run hosting environments with skin in the game.
• The value of a Citrix cert, or better yet, have one.

What Success Looks Like

• Systems don’t just run, they hum.
• Downtime becomes a rumour, not a reality.
• Documentation is crisp, clear, and actually used.
• Your name is mentioned when reliability is praised.

Not for You If...

• You’ve only dabbled in Citrix or prefer theory to application.
• You want a purely consultative role with zero dirty hands.
• You can't function without constant direction or only speak English.
• You’re allergic to teamwork or clarity.

The Journey

1. Send your CV
2. HR Screening
3. Meet the Tech Leads (they know their stuff)
4. Trial Day onsite, yes, they want to see you in action
5. Offer

This is your moment if you’re ready to grow into more than just a title.

We won’t seduce you with startup ping-pong tables. But we’ll offer something better, autonomy, respect, technical rigour, and a seat at the real table.
