Good to know: you can easily save this vacancy using the print button at the top of the page. After the closing date, this vacancy will be removed from our website. Shape the Azure platform. You will have direct influence over how Azure is designed and used across Eneco. Your work creates the foundations and standards that enable engineering teams throughout the organisation - not just for one project, but for everything that runs on top of it. Architecture meets engineering. This is not a role focused on tickets and day-to-day operations. You spend most of your time planning, designing, improving, and enabling - while still getting hands-on when implementation requires it. Work across teams and partners. You sit at the centre of cloud initiatives, connecting internal customers, architects, engineers, and external partners. You turn requirements into scalable solutions and make sure those solutions fit the wider platform. Why choose Eneco? Eneco is one of Europe's leading sustainable energy companies, working toward climate neutrality by 2035. Our digital infrastructure is what makes that ambition operational - from Finance and HR to Operations and Logistics. The Core Infra team is growing and bringing more infrastructure capability in-house. The cloud foundations you build and improve are a direct enabler of Eneco's mission. You will work within a team that values technical depth, pragmatic design, and long-term ownership over short-term delivery. What You’ll Do As a Senior Infrastructure Platform Engineer in the Core Infra team, you help design, build, and continuously improve the Azure cloud platform used across Eneco. You create the standards, patterns, automation, and capabilities that allow teams to use Azure in a secure, scalable, consistent, and efficient way - and you help teams implement them with technical guidance and support where needed. This is primarily a platform engineering, enablement, and governance role. You spend most of your time on planning, architecture, and design - translating business and technical requirements into robust cloud solutions. You also contribute hands-on to implementation and improvement. Day-to-day operational execution is handled through established service and support arrangements. Is this about you? You are a cloud engineer who is comfortable going deep into Azure but can also step back, understand the bigger picture, and explain technical choices to people with different backgrounds. You like creating standards and reusable solutions rather than solving the same problem repeatedly. You are pragmatic and hands-on when needed, but your biggest impact comes from planning, designing, enabling, and improving the cloud platform. You can challenge assumptions constructively, communicate clearly, and turn complex requirements into solutions that teams can actually use.
