Gesloten vacatures consultant Haarlem

We’re looking for a Technical Consultant – Engineering Excellence who loves getting hands‑on with engineering, transformation, automation and tooling, and gets just as much energy from coaching engineers and guiding clients through change.

What you’ll do

• Design and implement solutions on and new and existing platforms: think Kubernetes/AKS, event streaming, CI/CD, secure and (AI/ML) scalable setups.

• Join client teams as “one of them”: pairing with engineers, reviewing code and pipelines, helping them level up their engineering practices and developer experience.

• Help untangle legacy: support migrations from on‑prem/monolith/ESB to microservices, domain‑driven and event‑driven architectures.

• Facilitate: run technical workshops, refine backlogs with Product Owners, translate tech challenges into clear options and trade‑offs.

• Guard flow: spot bottlenecks in tooling, process or architecture, and work with the stakeholders to remove friction for teams.

You are

• An engineer first: you’ve built and run systems, not just drawn them—whether that was in Go, Python, C#, Java or TypeScript.

• Curious and coachy: you like explaining, pairing, and nudging teams towards better habits rather than throwing documents over the wall.

• Comfortable in the messy middle: you can handle half‑legacy, half‑cloud landscapes without losing your smile.

• Human: you have opinions, questions, hobbies, maybe a questionable taste in snacks. That’s fine—we’re a little bit geeky and proud of it.

You’ll bring

• Roughly 3–6 years of generic software/DevOps engineering experience.

• You’ve worked on real‑world systems: e.g. Services, data pipelines, integrations, internal tools, AI/ML stack agnostic

Engineering foundations

• You understand version control, code review, testing strategies, basic design principles and clean code.

• You know how to move from laptop to production: packaging, configuration, observability, and incident handling.

Cloud & DevOps

• Experience with at least one major cloud (preferably Azure) and concepts like managed services, networking, identity, and security basics.

• CI/CD tooling (Azure DevOps, GitHub Actions, GitLab CI, Jenkins, etc.) and scripting/automation in something like Bash, PowerShell, Python or Go.

• Familiarity with containers and orchestration (Docker, Kubernetes/AKS) or a strong desire to go deep there.

Ways of working & consultancy skills

• Used to Agile/Scrum/SAFe environments and cross‑functional teams.

• Comfortable in a consultancy role: asking questions, pushing back respectfully, and explaining trade‑offs in plain language to non‑engineers.

Language

• Dutch fluent, English professional.
