This is a hybrid role available as a 6 month contract which commences 1 January 2024.
Coders Connect has partnered with a growing Energy data company that is rapidly taking steps in the professionalisation of its organization. From startup to scaleup they develop reliable and innovative ICT infrastructures for regional and national grid operators. Specialising in collecting user data and making it accessible which other market parties can use to develop new services. With these data services they are giving the energy transition and thus the sustainability of the Netherlands plenty of room.
Here s an opportunity to work with a team within the IT Foundation value stream. The team is responsible for the delivery of generic building blocks in the field of Integration and Identity & Access Management (IAM). The building blocks are used by the DevOps teams and (external) market parties. An essential part of the solutions offered is Self Service (preferably declarative via GitOps). This means that teams can use the building blocks without having to rely on IT Foundation.
A core aspect within IT Foundation is delivering building blocks that ensure business agility and speed of realisation (timetomarket). In short agile solutions that can be developed in fast short and small iterations. Based on the principles: integrate early & integrate often working complex systems evolve from simple working systems.
The following building blocks are in the scope:
- API Gateway (Kong)
- File Gateway (Java)
- Entry Gateway (NGINX)
- Events (Managed Kafka from AWS)
- Identity & Access Management both internal (IAM) and external (CIAM)
- Policy Management (Open Policy Agent)
- With multiple custom (Kubernetes) operators (Go)
A Messaging Gateway and a Service Portal for services will follow later this year.
