Oracle DevOps engineer

We're AD/01, the tech studio that builds the future of food retail. Whether it's in-store aisles, online baskets, or behind-the-scenes operations, we innovate the daily food experiences for farmers and families, grandmas and greengrocers, and pickers and packers alike.

We're part of the Ahold Delhaize network, one of the world's largest global food retail groups and a leader in both supermarkets and e-commerce. With 19 strong local brands in Europe, the United States, and Indonesia, we create a meaningful difference for our customers, our people, and the world around us. And we're looking for the freshest minds excited to create the recipe for change.

Your new role and environment.

As an Engineer in the DDP Data Management services team, you focus on using the latest cloud technologies to architect, scale and monitor our services and products. You will be a champion of systems, infrastructure automation and security. This is a hands-on technical position. The ideal candidate has prior experience in building and managing Databases on Cloud Infrastructure that supports (data) applications striving to solve traditional operational problems through automation and software. Of course, none of this is useful unless you possess a high standard of excellence, attitude, solid written and verbal communication skills, have a strong customer focus

Key responsibilities of your role.

• Drive automation of Cloud infrastructure provisioning and configuration management, self-service, Infrastructure-as-Code services, Auto Scale initiatives, and DevOps deployment
• Contribute to infrastructure improvements, architecture, development and deployment
• Provide guidance, advice to team using your strong understanding of Oracle Cloud services
• Implement security baselines and standards for resources including Network access, restriction of internet-facing resource provision and configuration within the Azure and Oracle Cloud environment
• Work with and support application teams in their digital transformation goals
• Create observability strategies with focus on self-healing mechanisms
• Collaborate with data engineering, product, and design teams to ensure that releases, internal and external, can be done easily (and retracted easily if need be)
• Be part of the on-call rotation
• Define and develop architectural standards that promote DevOps practices such as Infrastructure as Code and Continuous Integration/Continuous Deployment (CI/CD)

We ask a lot. (We're looking for the best, after all). But we offer a lot, too.

So, what do we have in store for you? We offer flexible hours and a hybrid working model, allowing you to work both from home and at the office. We provide competitive benefits to support health, well-being and your professional growth. This includes: a significant budget on benefit platform and a yearly bonus.
