Vacatures consultant Almere Stad

• Are you someone who loves to strategise about long-term goals and translate them into platform capabilities that developers actually want to use?

• Do you enjoy operating between tech and people, where cloud-native architecture, developer experience, and organisational change meet?

• Do you find energy in helping teams align on a shared vision, making sure your work doesn’t just look good on paper but actually lands and sticks in the organisation? And while doing this, having variety in your work. Jumping into new industries, coaching teams, shaping strategy, and being part of a strong community of peers who constantly raise the bar?

Then Xebia is the place for you!

You will operate at the intersection of strategy, architecture, and organisational change. You’ll help our clients adopt Platform Engineering the right way: not just by designing technically solid platforms but by making sure they land in the organisation and stick.

This isn’t a coding-heavy role, but you do understand what great platforms look like under the hood, from cloud-native architecture and IaC to CI/CD pipelines and golden paths. You speak the language of both engineers and executives. You can navigate complexity, lead with clarity, and enjoy getting people aligned around a shared vision.

As a consultant, you won’t be stuck in the same place for years. You’ll be involved in different challenges across industries, defining strategy, facilitating org-wide change, and coaching teams on how to take ownership of platform capabilities.

You’ll be part of a sharp and experienced team at Xebia, people who take pride in doing things well, love sharing knowledge, and push each other to grow.
