Platform Engineer

Join Allseas Engineering as a Platform Engineer

Allseas Engineering is looking for a technically skilled Platform Engineer to join a dynamic and innovative team. Our digital platform gives our engineers a unified, cloud-native environment to build, test and ship software—whether they’re in Delft or 1,000 km offshore. To keep raising that bar we’re expanding the Digital Platform team with a Platform Engineer who is passionate about automation, open-source and developer experience.

Do you thrive on automation and innovation? Do you enjoy helping a company work more efficiently and effectively? If so, we look forward to receiving your application.

Your role

As a Platform Engineer, you’ll design, build and automate deployment and operational workflows that keep our digital platform—and the applications riding on it—performing flawlessly across offices and vessels worldwide. Beyond day-to-day reliability, you’ll spearhead the development of new capabilities that evolve this environment into a full-fledged internal developer platform, giving teams the tools and golden paths they need to ship pioneering solutions faster than ever.

Partnering closely with end-users and stakeholders, you’ll introduce emerging technologies, embed DevOps best practices, and codify everything as repeatable pipelines. At the same time, you’ll streamline internal processes and policies, continually refining how we build, deploy, and support software to unlock innovation at scale.

Key responsibilities:

• Design, build and maintain Kubernetes clusters (on-prem, edge, and cloud) with Terraform, Helm, and kube-adm, while managing GitOps deployment flows through Argo CD.
• Automate build-test-release pipelines in GitHub Actions and Azure Pipelines with container images.
• Integrate observability stacks — Prometheus, Grafana — to deliver real-time dashboards, SLOs and proactive alerting.
• Embed security by design with HashiCorp Vault for secrets, and implementing network policy via Cilium and Tailscale.
• Work closely with software engineering teams, and other IT teams to capture requirements, remove blockers and migrate workloads.
• Evaluate and pilot emerging tools such as Linkerd for service mesh, eBPF-based Cilium extensions, OpenTelemetry collectors, and other capabilities.
• Produce clear runbooks, support architecture documentation and step-by-step “How-To” guides.
• Join an on-call rotation, troubleshoot incidents and perform post-mortems using to keep critical services available worldwide.

What we expect from you

The ideal candidate has a strong understanding of IT fundamentals, including cloud infrastructure (Azure Cloud or AWS), software integrations, operating systems, and databases. You are motivated by automation and innovation, quick to learn new technologies, and comfortable with change.

You have excellent communication skills, are proactive in your approach, and enjoy working closely with your team and other departments.

In addition, you have:

• A bachelor’s degree (HBO/BSc) in Information Technology or a related field.
• Experience supporting custom applications in a Kubernetes environment.
• Experience with Agile (Scrum) methodologies and tools such as Azure DevOps or JIRA.
• Familiarity with ITSM tools like TopDesk or JIRA Service Management.

What we offer

Working at Allseas allows you the chance to work in a dynamic, fast-paced, entrepreneurial environment, with creative thinking, collaboration and down-to-earth culture at its core.

You can expect

• Competitive industry benchmarked salary and pension.
• Performance based salary raises and bonuses.
• 30 holidays days per year, flexible working hours.
• Extensive training and development programme, study budgets and coaching.
• A company-sponsored fitness scheme.
• Internal clubs, committees, parties and (sportive) events.

If this role appeals to you and you recognise yourself in the profile above, we would like to hear from you!

An online personality questionnaire can be part of the selection procedure.

It’s about more than numbers and schedules—it’s about making the best solution happen with the capabilities we’ve built in-house.
