Job Description


Senior DevOps Engineer (AWS / Terraform / Kubernetes)

Delft, Zuid-Holland | 50/50 Hybrid | Up to €95,000


This is a senior, hands-on DevOps role for someone who genuinely enjoys being close to the platform they run.


The company operates a high-traffic platform at serious scale in the Netherlands. Availability, security and reliability are core to the business.


You’ll join a small, experienced DevOps team responsible for a mission-critical AWS platform. This is not a ticket-driven role. You’ll design, build, operate and continuously improve the platform, and you’ll be expected to understand the downstream impact of your decisions.


Why this role may appeal to you:

  • Real ownership - You’ll work on a single platform where your decisions actually stick.
  • Technically serious environment - High traffic, real uptime pressure, and systems that need to work under load. If you enjoy understanding failure modes and improving resilience, you’ll have plenty to dig into.
  • Strong, experienced team - A small DevOps group with a high technical bar. Meaningful peer review, direct collaboration, and no need to “carry” the team.


This role requires hands-on production experience, including:

  • Genuine depth working in AWS environments (not just surface-level exposure)
  • Terraform — writing and maintaining it, not only consuming existing modules
  • Kubernetes in production (EKS)


The setup (important — please read)

  • 50/50 hybrid: 3 days on-site one week, 2 days the next
  • For this reason, we’re looking for people who live within ~1 hour door-to-door of the office (public transport friendly)
  • English-speaking environment
  • IND sponsorship available


If you’re fully remote, or already planning to negotiate this setup, this won’t be a fit, and that’s completely fine.


Package

  • Up to €95,000 gross salary, including holiday allowance
  • Custom pension arrangements available
  • 12-month initial contract
  • NS business card provided


Process

  • Stage 1: high-level introduction
  • Stage 2: deeper technical discussion


If the above resonates, apply and we’ll be in touch.
