SRE Manager at Nedap N.V

Although we expect a track record of hands-on engineering experience, this role is primarily a leadership and management role that demands a high degree of organisation, communication, and emotional intelligence. You must be comfortable being in a role in which you will not be contributing code.

The team must balance interrupt-driven work, priorities from external stakeholders, and internally-driven projects. Part of the manager's role will be in deciding on these priorities, formulating work plans, and communicating the commitments to the team and to stakeholders, and holding the team accountable to these commitments.

Your team

The team is responsible for on-premise bare metal, VM platforms, and container platforms, as well as cloud offerings. It also manages and supports core services, including but not limited to databases, monitoring and alerting, centralised logging, and backups.

The current focus is on increasing and improving the automation of provisioning and managing these services, though there is still quite a bit of legacy infrastructure to manage and modernise.    

Our offer

We find it important to offer our talents the best working conditions. This means that, in addition to an excellent reward package, you get the freedom to spend your time in such a way that you get the most out of yourself and what you do. We don't keep track of holidays - you decide when you need a break!

We organize the financial part of your package just as well. In addition to your salary and holiday pay, Nedap offers a 13th month, a profit sharing scheme, the option of participating in stock shares and an attractive pension scheme.

But above all, we invest in your personal development! Nedap takes your development very seriously. We do not give you a development budget, but we make sure that you get everything you need to develop yourself in the direction you want. We offer an extensive introduction program and a personal development process in which we look at your potential to grow within Nedap.

Required experience and skills

You live and breath SRE. In every conversation you know how to bring value, to your team, to the solution provided and to your stakeholders. You are strong in organizing activities and know how to effectively communicate. You understand the fact that your work impacts thousands of users, and you take that very seriously. That’s why you and your team belong to the top players in their field.

• Experience in managing a distributed team of 5+ engineers
• A track record of managing projects to deadlines
• Prior hands-on experience with the infrastructure supporting a high-volume web application, ideally with a micro-service architecture
• Some of the technical concepts we expect you to have knowledge of, if not experience with: Container platform (e.g., Nomad, Kubernetes), Automation pipelines (e.g., Jenkins, GitHub Actions), and Orchestration (e.g., Ansible, Puppet, Chef, Terraform)
