As posted by Robin Radar Systems
As a DevOps Engineer at Robin Radar, you will build the systems that deliver our software directly onto radar hardware, combining managing our on-prem setup with bare metal installation knowledge. You’ll focus on automating these deployments to make our production process faster and more consistent. By reducing manual steps, you’ll help us scale our output and ensure our radar systems are always running the most up-to-date, high-performance software.
You’ll be a core member of the DevOps team within our I&D department. You’ll report to a Team Lead who provides technical guidance and helps remove blockers so you can focus on building reliable infrastructure.
Responsibilities
Automating deployments onto radar hardware using PXE network installations, turning a manual, error-prone process into something consistent and repeatable
Building and maintaining CI/CD pipelines with Jenkins and Bitbucket so software ships faster and more reliably
Writing infrastructure-as-code, primarily in Ansible (and AWX), with Terraform, Helm and ArgoCD in the mix
Containerizing high-performance native applications using Docker multi-stage builds
Keeping systems monitored and observable with Prometheus, Grafana and Loki, and acting on what you see
Integrating security controls into the workflow, not bolting them on at the end
Documenting what you build, so the next person has a foundation to work from
Requirements
3+ years in a DevOps, SRE or Linux infrastructure role.
Deep knowledge of Linux, Ubuntu specifically.
Solid scripting in Python and/or Bash.
Hands-on experience with Ansible; AWX is a strong plus.
Kubernetes and CI/CD pipeline experience.
Familiarity with bare metal and on-prem environments, PXE experience is a real differentiator here. No bare metal background? If you have strong pipeline and Linux skills and you're eager to get into hardware-level work, we'd still like to talk.
Understanding of IP networks: configuring, monitoring, securing.
You live in the Netherlands, within commuting distance of The Hague.
Comfortable working in English.
Nice to have: Kubernetes, AWX, APT repository management, VMware, cloud provider experience.
N.B. All applicants, we realize that this is quite the list and people come with various levels of experience. Don't be afraid to apply even if you feel you don't meet every desired skill. Our mission is a journey and there's plenty to learn on the way!
But of course, you should identify with our core values: We trust, We own it & We aim high.
Please note: We will request a Certificate of Conduct (VOG) and conduct a background check according to our screening policy. We appreciate your understanding and cooperation in this matter.
