Platform in the Netherlands

• As a Platform Engineer Trusted Platform Services, you will work on security-critical platforms. You build and manage reliable solutions for access, secrets, and certificates in an environment where stability and security are always the top priority.

• The team is known for craftsmanship and responsibility. Automation and standardization are not an ambition but a daily practice.

• We are going for it: Schiphol must become one of the top 3 European airports.

As a Platform Engineer Trusted Platform Services, you are responsible for building, managing, and improving platform services for Privileged Access Management, Secrets Management, and Certificate Management within Enterprise Technology. How exactly you realize this? That is up to you. You will apply your talents to:

• building and managing robust and reliable platforms for 24/7 mission-critical services.

• implementing and maintaining complex platform solutions based on established architecture and standards.

• resolving complex incidents and structurally improving the stability, performance, and security of the platform.

• automating and standardizing platform components to increase quality, repeatability, and speed.

• actively contributing to technical quality and knowledge sharing within the Platform Team.

Enterprise Technology is the department where all generic IT is brought together. The department delivers standardized building blocks—such as infrastructure, platform services, connectivity, and digital workplace services—which are used by the Business Platforms for the development and management of their domain-specific solutions. Enterprise Technology thus functions as the technological foundation within Digital & Technology and enables the Business Platforms to focus on value creation for their business domain.

Schiphol connects your world. With the best people, we make travel safe and responsible. You contribute to this with your unique talents, such as the way you:

• combining deep technical knowledge with ownership in a security-critical platform domain.

• bringing calm and overview in complex situations, such as incidents or disruptions.

• continuously seeking structural improvements instead of temporary solutions.

In addition, you have demonstrable experience and knowledge of:

• building and managing security or infrastructure platforms in enterprise environments.

• Privileged Access Management or IAM concepts and preferably also secrets management and/or certificate management.

• Azure, Entra ID, and Beyond Trust.

• end-to-end technical coherence within a platform, including integrations, dependencies, and security aspects.

• automation and standardization as an integral part of platform management.

• collaborating in a team that is responsible for business-critical 24/7 services.

• You know when something is good enough to take action. You guard the balance between quality and progress, make well-founded choices, and prevent perfection from slowing down speed or impact. You encourage your team to work pragmatically, to learn in the process, and to continuously improve together.

• You work with full end‑to‑end ownership: you tackle issues from start to finish, maintain an overview of the entire process, and ensure that results actually land within the organization. You guard the coherence between strategy, execution, and impact, and take responsibility until it truly works for the business.

• You dare to actively challenge the business and teams, ask critical questions, and stimulate different ways of thinking. You bring a clear vision, combine ambition with execution power, and know how to not only initiate change but also actually realize it. You stimulate movement, break patterns, and ensure that improvements truly land in the organization.

• € 5230 to € 7257 gross per month (scale 12)
