Categorie: IT-services

Locatie: Arnhem Gelderland Netherlands

As a Cloud Native Software Engineer, you will contribute to the development of a modern integration platform that bridges operational technology (OT) and IT systems. This platform supports mission-critical infrastructure and is part of a broader transformation program focused on building a future-proof control room environment.

You’ll work in a cross-functional team responsible for designing, building, and maintaining scalable, secure, and observable backend services using modern cloud-native technologies.

Your Responsibilities

• Develop and maintain backend applications in Java or Python, with a focus on performance, reliability, and scalability.
• Containerize workloads and deploy them to Kubernetes clusters using best practices for CI/CD, monitoring, and fault tolerance.
• Ensure high test coverage through unit, integration, and system testing.
• Troubleshoot and resolve production issues with a focus on root cause analysis and sustainable fixes.
• Continuously improve codebases, pipelines, and team practices.
• Actively participate in design discussions, code reviews, and knowledge-sharing sessions.
• Join an on-call rotation (approx. once every two months) to support critical systems outside business hours.

What You Bring


Required:

• Proven experience developing production-grade backend applications in Java or Python
• Solid understanding of cloud-native architectures, microservices, and distributed systems
• Hands-on experience deploying containerized applications in Kubernetes environments
• Proficiency with Apache Kafka and stream processing concepts
• Familiarity with CI/CD pipelines and tools such as ArgoCD, Terraform, Tekton, or GitHub Actions
• Experience with DevOps practices like GitOps, observability, and auto-scaling
• Knowledge of cloud object storage (e.g. MinIO, S3) and modern databases (e.g. MongoDB, PostgreSQL/TimescaleDB)
• Strong communication skills and fluency in English

Preferred:

• Experience with stream processing frameworks such as Apache Flink, Kafka Streams, or Apache Beam
• Background in data-intensive applications, including time-series data or real-time analytics
• Experience writing technical documentation and contributing to team standards
• Familiarity with agile methodologies and working in cross-functional teams
• Dutch or German language skills are a plus

Are you a cloud-native engineer who thrives in complex environments and enjoys building scalable systems with impact? Then this opportunity is for you.
