Agent guide: [/agents.md](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/agents.md). --- # Senior Platform Engineer - **Company:** Fidamy - **Location:** Amsterdam, Netherlands - **Experience:** Expert - **Contract:** Permanent contract - **Skills:** Adobe InDesign, Artificial Intelligence, Amazon Web Services, Amazon S3, Audit Trail, Cloud Computing, Data Stores, Python (Programming Language), PostgreSQL, Node.Js, NoSQL, Software Engineering, TypeScript, Test-Driven Development (TDD), Tailwind, ReactJS, Webpack, Codebase, Terraform, Databricks, Programming Languages - **Published:** September 14, 2026 - **Apply:** https://www.indeed.com/viewjob?jk=3d1da266ef458318 ## About the Role * Robust, hands-on AWS expertise and fluency with Terraform, a non-negotiable requirement. You can review and improve existing cloud estates thoroughly. * Experience running real-world restores in production and setting clear recovery targets. Reliability, SLOs, and incident response are central to your approach. * Experience designing robust permission models and working with extrinsic (outside the app) authorization systems. * Proficiency in a modern programming language (TypeScript, Python, or Go) and willingness to work in TypeScript for deployment and authorization tooling. * Familiarity with AI-driven software development: comfortable orchestrating coding agents and using specifications/tests as their interface. * Proven record of owning outcomes end-to-end (not just completing tickets), with evidence to back it up. * Excellent instincts for security within regulated environments dealing with money and personal data. Insurance/Insurtech experience is a plus but not required. * Proactive, pragmatic, and communicative; you're a problem-solver and team contributor in a small, agile environment. * Ability to travel to the Amsterdam office at least two days per week. ## Description * Build and own the reliability and scalability of our production systems, cloud infrastructure, and codebase, ensuring the platform securely manages sensitive financial and personal data. * Lead backup and disaster recovery across the platform: define clear recovery targets, rehearse and validate restores, and provide evidence of resilience. * Be the first responder when platform incidents arise-whether they're infrastructure issues, pipeline failures, or security events-and lead the follow-up to prevent recurrence. * Share responsibility for our Infrastructure as Code: review and author changes, and keep our infrastructure safe to evolve. * Maintain and enhance deployment tooling (TypeScript, with tests) for continuous, safe releases to production. * Consistently strengthen the platform security baseline with ongoing improvements such as edge protection, audit logging, pipeline scanning, and secret rotation. * Own and develop our authorisation model, ensuring every operation passes robust, externalised permission checks for both people and AI agents. * Use AI-driven development as standard: direct coding agents, specify and test requirements, and rigorously review results. * Influence the technical roadmap, participate in design reviews, and set a high standard for engineering quality across the team. Tech Stack * AI-driven development: Claude Code and coding agents as standard tooling * Ways of working: test-driven development, for the deployment tooling as much as for the applications; infrastructure changes reviewed and applied through the pipeline; shipped continuously * Cloud & Infrastructure: AWS, Terraform * Data stores: PostgreSQL, S3, NoSQL * Application: React, Vite, Tailwind, Node.js (TypeScript), Python * Observability: OpenTelemetry, with managed tracing and alerting on top * Data & AI: Databricks, AWS Bedrock ## Related Videos - [Watch Tests Go Brrrr! : Getting Started with Cypress in ReactJS](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/videos/282-watch-tests-go-brrrr-getting-started-with-cypress-in-reactjs) - [The Microfrontend Revolution- Using Webpack 5 Module Federation with Angular](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/videos/131-the-microfrontend-revolution-using-webpack-5-module-federation-with-angular) - [Leveraging Real time data in FSIs](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/videos/806-leveraging-real-time-data-in-fsis) - [Inside Bitpanda's Tech Stack: Scaling a European Fintech Leader - Markus Dorner](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/videos/1979-inside-bitpanda-s-tech-stack-scaling-a-european-fintech-leader-markus-dorner) - [Micro Frontends with Module Federation: Why and How?](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/videos/165-micro-frontends-with-module-federation-why-and-how) - [Shipping Faster with Less: Render on Cloud Hosting, AI Workloads, and the Future of DevOps](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/videos/1894-shipping-faster-with-less-render-on-cloud-hosting-ai-workloads-and-the-future-of-devops) ## Related Articles - [Dev Digest 120 - Apple and peers](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/magazine/455-dev-digest-120-apple-and-peers) - [Fully Remote Software Engineer Jobs](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/magazine/447-fully-remote-software-engineer-jobs) - [How to Find Tech Jobs in Amsterdam](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/magazine/279-how-to-find-tech-jobs-in-amsterdam) - [Find a Developer Job: 12 Best Job Sites For Developers](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/magazine/165-find-a-developer-job-12-best-job-sites-for-developers) - [Dev Digest 121 - AI goes offline](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/magazine/456-dev-digest-121-ai-goes-offline) - [How to land a developer job in Amsterdam](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/magazine/36-how-to-land-a-developer-job-in-amsterdam)
