Hi, my name is

Ing. Johanna Rührig

DevOps Engineer

I’m a DevOps Engineer focused on reliable cloud infrastructure, automation, CI/CD, and security-minded operations. I currently work at ecosio, where I support AWS cloud engineering, delivery automation, pipeline reliability, and operational maintenance such as security patching.

My background combines DevOps, site reliability engineering, full-stack development, and technical leadership. I enjoy building systems that help teams move faster without losing stability: clear pipelines, observable services, repeatable infrastructure, and pragmatic operations. My leadership approach is shaped by hands-on project work, collaboration, and a European Leadership Competence Training certificate.

Resume / CV

About Me

Vira Solutions is my professional home for the engineering work I care about: reliable systems, thoughtful automation, and technical leadership.

I like working at the intersection of infrastructure and people. That means making cloud platforms easier to operate, making delivery safer through automation, and helping teams build confidence through clear, maintainable systems.

Outside of work, I run a homelab where I experiment with self-hosting, identity, monitoring, automation, and infrastructure patterns. It gives me a practical space to keep learning hands-on and stay close to the operational realities behind the tools.

Experience

DevOps Engineer - ecosio
Jan 2026 - Present

I work as a DevOps Engineer at ecosio, focusing on reliable and secure cloud operations.

My work centers on AWS cloud engineering, automation, CI/CD pipelines, and security patching. I help keep operational workflows maintainable and delivery processes repeatable, with a reliability mindset shaped by my background in site reliability engineering.

I care about the human side of operations as much as the technical one: clear communication, ownership, collaboration, and practical leadership are part of how I approach reliable engineering work.

Senior Site Reliability Engineer - Allianz Technology
Sep 2020 - Sep 2025

I worked as a Site Reliability Engineer at Allianz Technology, focusing on resilience, scalability, and operational quality for enterprise systems.

In this role, I designed and implemented infrastructure solutions using Kubernetes, OpenShift, Helm, Terraform, GitOps, Jenkins, and Argo CD. I contributed to automated deployment workflows, cloud migration efforts, disaster recovery planning, monitoring, and observability practices across multiple environments.

Beyond implementation, I helped teams improve operational processes, release reliability, incident response, and knowledge sharing. This experience strengthened my belief that dependable systems come from both thoughtful engineering and healthy collaboration.

Full-Stack Developer - Cloudflight
Sep 2019 - Sep 2020

I worked as a Full-Stack Developer at Cloudflight, delivering tailored software solutions for clients including Deutsche Bahn, Porsche, and u-space.

In this role, I contributed to front-end and back-end development, translated complex requirements into maintainable applications, and collaborated with cross-functional teams across diverse client projects.

This experience gave me a strong foundation in end-to-end software delivery, from design and implementation to deployment and maintainability.

Education

Completed
European Leadership Competence Training
Leadership development certificate
Completed a European leadership competence training certificate, strengthening my approach to communication, responsibility, collaboration, and people-centered technical leadership.
2023 - Present
Psychology
FernUniversität Hagen

Since psychology has always piqued my interest, I gave in to my curiosity and started studying.

Whenever time allows, I am completing the basics of neurology and concepts of psychology.

2015 - 2016
Information Technology
TU Vienna

During my studies at TU Vienna, I completed several lectures including:

  • Data Science
  • Logic and Computation
  • Software Engineering
  • Project Management

This was sponsored by ÖZBF (Austrian Center for Gifted Talents Education and Research).

ÖZBF
2013 - 2019
Federal Higher Technical Institute (Software Engineering & Economics)
htl donaustadt

After successfully completing the Federal Higher Technical Institute and after applying relevant engineering tasks for several years, I was granted the engineer’s degree.

During my studies, I participated in and won several coding contests, hackathons, and IBM Master the Mainframe events. My final diploma thesis focused on a fully automated all-in-one DevOps suite, configured and ready to deploy from a single Dockerfile.
