Dit team bouwt, beheert en ontwikkelt de Red Hat OpenShift-platformen in de KPN-datacenters. Vanaf die platformen levert het container- en virtualisatiediensten aan de interne applicatieteams van KPN.\nC&V bestaat uit drie teams:\neen team voor het virtualisatieplatform: OpenShift Virtualization, met negen clusters verspreid over verschillende datacenters en netwerken;\neen team voor het containerplatform: twaalf OpenShift Container Platform-clusters;\neen team dat de diensten rondom de platformen beheert voor de applicatieteams.\nJij komt in het containerplatformteam, een team van acht à tien collega’s. Ze werken voortdurend aan beter, en staan voor beschikbaarheid, kwaliteit, standaardisatie, security en innovatie. Automatisering is daarbij de kern: wat geautomatiseerd kan worden, wordt geautomatiseerd.\nHet team werkt grotendeels thuis en komt elke dinsdag samen op kantoor in Groningen. Je sluit daar ook op dinsdag aan. Waar je verder in Nederland woont, maakt niet uit.\n Als OpenShift / Kubernetes Engineer werk je aan de doorontwikkeling van het OpenShift-containerplatform. Je richt je niet alleen op het dagelijkse beheer. Je ziet waar het platform beter kan, implementeert nieuwe functionaliteit en zet ook nieuwe platformen neer.\nWat je gaat doen:\nBouwen, uitbreiden en verbeteren van OpenShift-clusters in verschillende projecten.\nNieuwe functionaliteit en nieuwe platformen implementeren binnen de OpenShift-stack, inclusief de applicaties die erbij horen.\nConfigureren, beheren en troubleshooten van complexe platformomgevingen.\nZoveel mogelijk automatiseren met GitOps, Argo CD, Ansible en Infrastructure as Code.\nBijdragen aan de betrouwbaarheid van het platform en problemen structureel oplossen, in plaats van alleen het symptoom.\nKennis documenteren en actief delen met je collega’s.\nJe schakelt soepel tussen engineering, beheer en projectwerk. Je werkt zelfstandig, maar altijd als onderdeel van het team. We zoeken nadrukkelijk geen klassieke beheerder, maar iemand die samen met het team bouwt aan een steeds verder geautomatiseerd, gestandaardiseerd en betrouwbaar platform.\n Wat je meebrengt:\nAantoonbare kennis van en ervaring met Red Hat OpenShift Container Platform (OCP) en Kubernetes.\nErvaring met het werken volgens GitOps en met Argo CD.\nErvaring met Ansible en Infrastructure as Code.\nErvaring met het bouwen, configureren, beheren en troubleshooten van complexe platformomgevingen.\nJe kunt zelfstandig complexe technische vraagstukken analyseren en zoekt naar structurele verbeteringen.\nJe kiest altijd voor automatisering boven handwerk.\nJe bent een teamspeler: je deelt kennis, durft kritisch te zijn en blijft pragmatisch.\nWat het extra sterk maakt:\nErvaring met OpenShift Virtualization.\nKennis van Kargo, Prometheus en Grafana.\nErvaring met CI/CD en geautomatiseerde deploymentprocessen.\nKennis van netwerk-, storage- en securityconcepten binnen Kubernetes en OpenShift.\n Reageren tot: 3 november 12:00\nStart opdracht: zo snel mogelijk\nEinde opdracht: 1-4-2027 (verlenging mogelijk)\nUren per week: 32 - 40\nTarief: max €103,00 incl. reiskosten en excl.
