DHL Hiring for Senior Software Engineer at Chennai, Tamil Nadu Full Time

Full Job DescriptionAbout DHL IT Services & Digital Platforms
At DHL IT Services, we’re designing, building and running IT solutions for the whole DPDHL globally. Millions of people who ship their packages, countless businesses we support with logistics services and 550k colleagues – all running from our datacenters with thousands of servers and applications.

This naturally means a lot of digitalization – our key priority for the coming years, deeply embedded in strategies across the company. Simply, we recognize digitalization as the biggest opportunity since globalization. Digital Platforms is a new “fresh out of the oven” department, where we have the opportunity to address this digitalization theme much more closely. There, you will find topics like APIs, Blockchain, Internet of Things, Data Lake & Analytics, Artificial Intelligence, Automation and more. We’re designing, prototyping, building – but also running and supporting cutting-edge digital solutions for our customers and employees. We’re very excited to see the positive impact of our work – but also recognize the potential is much larger. This is why we need you!

How do we work?

We like to do everything in an Agile/DevOps way. No more throwing the “problem code” to support, no silos. Our teams are completely product oriented, having end to end responsibility for a success of a product in development and in production. Typically, you would find roles like DevOps Engineers, Product Managers and Scrum Masters only. Same people, taking care of the full stack of infrastructure, application, but also the business side of the product.

The day-to-day work is typically organized using Scrum, so stand-ups, reviews, retrospectives, estimating story points, working in impediments, iterating on the product, deploying many times etc. Like in any other company, it’s not Scrum 100% by the book, but we try to live the principles of the Agile manifesto and have a culture of trying to get better every day, embracing failures if they happen – they’re great learnings, too!

The development is following DevOps culture, so, whatever one builds, he/she supports in Production in case of issues. There’s also space for exploration, as the product and customer needs to be continuously developed, so we work with startups and other enterprises to stay on the cutting edge and cherry-pick what makes sense.

About Our IoT team:
Our mission in the IoT Team is “Providing a platform for DPDHL which accelerates the adoption of IoT for the purpose of operational excellence, customer experience and employee safety”

In our IoT world, we are building a state-of-the-art global platform, to process the data from millions of connected devices from various business units across the globe. Then, we have exciting use cases over the platform to monitor our assets, shipments, warehouse equipment etc. in real-time providing actionable insights via cool UX designs.

Tech stack : Our IoT platform is based on Microsoft Azure cloud infrastructure harnessing the collection of managed and platform services across edge and cloud to securely connect, monitor and control millions of IoT assets. Our micro-services based architecture coupled with Azure DevOps pipeline enables continuous integration and delivery , so you can also expect a lot of Docker, Kubernetes. Finally, to wire it all together, we write code in .Net core, C# and Angular.

The team: Like our company, our team is quite global. We have technical teams located at Chennai, Berlin and Bonn. To help us collaborate better, we are using tools like Teams, Jira, Confluence or Mural, too. You will find a nice mix of motivated people, typically geeks who are passionate about technology and are reading about IT after work anyway J But most importantly, we are a team who supports each other even in tough times and who tries to make things better every day. We’d be happy to support you too on your journey with us!

Who do we look for?

Currently, we’re looking for Senior DevOps Engineers in our IoT team who can participate in our IoT product development and solve interesting real-time problems. In this role, you will have an opportunity to directly impact the customer experience in DPDHL through exciting IoT use case implementation and develop new features in our stock. Typically, your day would be filled with discussing the architecture/ features, estimating stories, actual development, configuring the infrastructure and a bit of other fun, too.

What do we expect from you?

A passionate professional with strong coding background
Highly adaptable individuals with a positive and can-do attitude
Strong knowledge in .NET Core, C#
Sound understandingof Distributed Systems
Experience in Micro Services, REST API
Experience in MS-SQL Server, NoSQL Server
Strong Code-Reading skills

Extensive knowledge in Entity Framework Core
Knowledge in Azure DevOps, Azure Active Directory, Azure Functions, Azure Event Hubs, Azure Storage Queues is highly desirable

Does it sound a bit like you? Let’s talk!

If you have experience with (similar) tech stack, but we don’t expect a superman from the day 1; we want to give a proper learning space, too. What’s really needed, however, is passion for great customer experience and technology.

we’d love to hear from you; our new department is rapidly growing and we’re looking for many people with the can-do mindset to join us on our digitalization journey. Thank you for considering DHL as the next step in your career – we do believe we can make a difference together!#digitalplatforms
