DevOps Engineer

What are you going to do?

Would you like to work in a complex technical environment where you can have a direct impact on the way our applications are developed, deployed and managed? As a DevOps Engineer in Security, you’ll have the freedom to make your own technical decisions and will work alongside development teams to create reliable, scalable SaaS solutions.

As a DevOps Engineer, you’ll be responsible for deploying our applications. In doing so, you’ll ensure they run in an automated, scalable, redundant and efficient manner. You’ll start your day with a stand-up meeting and regularly consult with other DevOps and Development Engineers on current and ongoing stories. You’ll also work on developing and optimising CI/CD pipelines, configuring monitoring systems and automating these processes.

Your responsibilities

Infrastructure as Code

You automate infrastructure deployments using Terraform.

Infrastructure enablement

You support development teams in using and further developing the infrastructure platform.

Deployment automation

You develop deployment pipelines for services running on Nomad and Kubernetes.

Continuous delivery

You build and maintain CI/CD pipelines using GitHub Actions, Maven/Gradle, Docker, Bash and Python.

DevOps culture

You promote automation, self-service and engineering best practices within development teams.

Solution architecture

You challenge development teams on architectural choices to deliver scalable, maintainable and reliable SaaS solutions.

Your team

At Nedap Security, you’ll work as part of multidisciplinary product teams in an Agile/Scrum environment. As a DevOps Engineer, you’ll collaborate with other DevOps Engineers, front-end and back-end developers, and testers.

Clear communication is essential to our collaboration! The team comprises a mix of personalities, knowledge and skills. We work in a dynamic way, with short lines of communication and plenty of scope to make decisions independently. This enables us to adapt quickly and actually implement improvements. As well as your own team, you’ll have frequent contact with another team within Nedap that hosts the platform.

There’s an open and relaxed atmosphere within the team; everything is up for discussion and there’s always scope and time to implement improvements. The work is very dynamic – no two days are the same – and that’s precisely what makes it so enjoyable. In the event of emergencies, people always step in wherever they can, and the problem is tackled as a genuine team effort. As well as our day-to-day work, there are also regular events, knowledge-sharing sessions and social gatherings.

What's in it for you?

As a DevOps Engineer at Nedap, you’ll make a valuable contribution to your work in an environment built around trust and autonomy. Along with your colleagues, you decide on your own working hours and vacation days to maintain a healthy work-life balance. We also highly value personal and professional growth. You’ll receive a thorough onboarding, and we encourage you to keep developing yourself.

Required skills

In your role as a DevOps Engineer, it is important that you support the team in a service-oriented manner. At the same time, you are not afraid to stand by your views and are able to clearly justify why something should be approached in a particular way. Above all, you are constantly focused on improvement and optimisation. You are committed to quality and ensure that it is maintained throughout the entire process.

You will also recognise yourself in the following:

• Experience: At least three years’ experience as a DevOps Engineer or in a similar role;
• CI/CD: Good knowledge of and experience with pipeline tools such as GitHub Actions, Jenkins, Azure DevOps and CircleCI;
• Scripting: Experience with scripting in Bash; experience with Python and/or JavaScript is an advantage;

• Language skills: Good command of English; fluency in Dutch is a strong advantage.

Good to know: Hybrid working is the norm at Nedap. You will coordinate your working hours with your team to ensure a good work-life balance. You will be present at our campus in Groenlo for at least two days a week.
