The role
The M365 Chapter is on its way from a mainly operational team to an engineering-driven platform team. Today, a large part of our time still goes into keeping things running. Our ambition is a split of roughly 60% engineering and a maximum of 40% operations, by standardizing our services, moving standard requests to the Service Desk, automating repetitive work, and enabling self-service. That is a journey, and you will help us make it. Expect a platform that is already running at scale, with plenty left to design, build and improve.Microsoft 365 is a strategic platform within HEMA, with Entra, Intune, Azure, Teams and SharePoint playing a key role. As a senior engineer, you will be one of the technical leaders within the Chapter, helping strengthen our engineering capability and reduce dependency on individual specialists.You translate the roadmap into technology: new digital workspaces for our stores with Teams, Administrative Units and identity & access management, automation with Azure Functions, a control plane that monitors hundreds of data points and remediates automatically, and central logging and auditing across our services. You shape technical designs and architecture choices together with the relevant stakeholders, implement solutions yourself or together with colleagues, and safeguard our engineering standards and quality in production.You take ownership of what runs in production, from design to go-live and long after. You lead complex root-cause analyses and technical conversations with stakeholders such as Security, AI and Architecture, and you translate approved requirements into secure and maintainable Microsoft 365 configuration. You drive our standards and the introduction of new technologies, and you are a competence leader in the team: you coach colleagues, review designs and implementations, help onboard new team members, and actively share your knowledge. You understand the intent behind requirements and are comfortable challenging proposed solutions when there is a more secure, scalable or maintainable approach.We are not looking for a senior administrator who mainly solves tickets, or for a consultant who only advises. We are looking for a hands-on Microsoft 365 Platform Engineer with a DevOps mindset: you build it, you run it, and you take responsibility for the result.
