## About the Role

* Demonstrable end responsibility for network infrastructure in production: routing, switching and firewalls;
 * Solid Linux administration: server management and hands-on troubleshooting;
 * Hands-on experience with Kubernetes and infrastructure as code;
 * Experience with datacenter hardware and backup solutions;
 * You work independently, take the lead in projects and communicate clearly with other teams;
 * Willing to join the 24/7 on-call rotation, and in possession of a driver's licence.

Nice-to-haves

 * A networking certification: Cisco CCNA or CCNP, or an Aruba, Arista or Juniper equivalent;
 * Certified Kubernetes Administrator;
 * A Linux certification, for example LPIC;
 * Experience with FortiGate, Juniper QFX, Aruba, Arista, VMware (vSphere, Horizon), Pure Storage or optical networks.

## Description

* Design, build and maintain our network: routing, switching, firewalls and WiFi;
 * Managing our Linux servers and virtual platforms (VMware, Azure, AWS), from setup to troubleshooting;
 * Building out our Kubernetes environment and infrastructure as code, together with the Platform team;
 * Leading infrastructure projects end to end, from design to delivery;
 * Incident, change and patch management, including monitoring and security measures;
 * Advising other teams on the infrastructure side of their projects, in plain language;
 * Working in our datacenters on hardware, installations and upgrades;
 * Keeping our documentation up to date.

Two things to know up front. The team runs a 24/7 on-call rotation, so you take your turn outside office hours. And you need a driver's licence, because you regularly drive equipment between our office and the datacenters.

About the team

Budget Thuis is the home brand for energy, internet and mobile. We deliberately run our core infrastructure ourselves instead of handing it to a third party, so our IT Infrastructure team manages everything from firewalls and switches to virtual platforms and datacenter hardware. The team has five engineers today and you will be the sixth. Almost every other team needs infrastructure work to get their projects live, so you work close to the rest of the business.
