Junior Ops Engineer - Apprenticeship (f/m/d)

At Decathlon, we live and breathe sport. Our mission? Bring people together through sport to make wellbeing accessible for all. And to make that happen seamlessly, our tech has to perform like a top-tier athlete.

Our Global Checkout Tech team is currently a tight-knit squad of 9 passionate teammates. Together, we manage the checkout perimeter across more than 80 countries! Whether a customer is buying a tent in France or a bike in Japan, you will ensure their checkout experience is flawless.

We win as a team, we learn from our mistakes, and we always back each other up. If you love tech, automation, and a strong culture of mutual aid, you are exactly the player we are looking for to join our starting lineup!

🏟️ Your Playground (The Role)

As our new OPS Engineer, you will be at the heart of our global operations. Your daily routine won’t just be about keeping the lights on; it’s about optimizing, automating, and scaling our checkout ecosystem worldwide.

• Maintain & Scale: Ensure the reliability and performance of our checkout systems across 80+ countries.

• Team Play: Collaborate daily with your 9 teammates. Sharing knowledge, helping a colleague in need, and pair-programming are part of our DNA.

• Continuous Improvement: Bring fresh ideas to the table to make our global infrastructure faster, smarter, and more resilient.

👟 Your Scouting Profile (Skills We Are Looking For)

We are looking for a versatile teammate who loves to tackle technical challenges. You’ll be a great fit if you have solid experience in:

• Windows System Administration: You know Windows environments inside out and can manage them at scale.

• Packaging: You master software packaging and deployment like a pro.

• Scripting (PowerShell): If it can be automated, you automate it. PowerShell is your go-to language to build clean, efficient scripts.

• AI / ML (Artificial Intelligence / Machine Learning): You have a strong interest or experience in integrating AI/ML concepts to optimize operations or predict system behaviors.

• General Networking: You understand routing, switching, and firewall basics—enough to troubleshoot global connectivity issues with ease.

💙 The Decathlon Team Spirit

At Decathlon, your personality matters just as much as your technical stack. We are looking for someone who embodies:

• Generosity & Entraide: You never leave a teammate behind. You enjoy helping others and growing together.

• Vitality & Autonomy: You are proactive, full of energy, and ready to take ownership of your topics.

• Adaptability: Managing a perimeter of 80+ countries means dealing with diverse challenges. You embrace change with a smile.

🎁 What’s in it for you?

• A dynamic, caring, and international environment.

• Real opportunities to test, learn, and innovate (especially with AI/ML).

• A team that celebrates victories together (and supports each other during intense sprints).

• A company culture where sport and well-being are part of the daily routine.
