Cloud Edge Engineer

You are an engineer who gets energy from building platforms and infrastructure at scale. You enjoy collaborating with other teams and find it interesting to develop technology that is used directly in practice.

In addition, you largely recognize yourself in the following:

• Approximately 5 years of relevant experience as a platform, cloud, or infrastructure engineer
• Experience with Linux, containers, and Kubernetes environments
• Knowledge of Helm and managing container-based applications
• Experience with CI/CD pipelines, for example with GitLab
• A structured way of working and an interest in reliable and secure platform architectures
• Experience with technologies such as Talos Linux, Omni, Python, KubeVirt, Cilium, Grafana stack, ArgoCD, or Multus is a plus
• Willingness to participate in an on-call rotation outside office hours (on average one evening per week and one weekend every five weeks), supporting internal engineering teams that run applications on the platform.

Working at Lely means contributing to sustainable progress within one of the most innovative organizations in the Netherlands. You help make the agricultural sector more futureproof, and we ensure you have the space, resources, and support to do so.

• An international work environment that values collaboration, initiative, and diverse perspectives.
• A culture that encourages learning, experimentation, and ownership of ideas.
• Excellent employment conditions, including up to 8 weeks of vacation per year and a strong pension scheme.
• A salary range of €5.000 - €7.100 gross per month, with clear opportunities for growth within the scale.
• Full ownership of your own development, with access to a wide range of courses through the Lely Academy.
• Daily access to outstanding sports facilities at the Lely Campus: an indoor gym, outdoor padel courts, basketball and volleyball courts, table tennis, and table football. You can join Hyrox workouts or sign up for personal training and challenge your colleagues during an active break.
• Fresh coffee and tea from our own barista (with milk from our own farm) and a healthy, affordable company restaurant.

Work-life balance

• A healthy work-life balance thanks to our hybrid working policy: you work at least three days a week on Campus, with flexible hours and plenty of opportunity to spend additional time onsite (between 06:00 and 20:00).
• A free shuttle bus that takes you to and from the metro station in Maassluis, ensuring your workday starts and ends smoothly.
• And of course: we love to celebrate! Whether it’s an anniversary or the annual Christmas party. At Lely, we know how to do it. For an impression of our events, take a look at this video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6WA3e0WHbxE
