Are you a DevOps Engineer with a passion for infrastructure platforms? Do you want to work in a high-tech environment where research, innovation and education come together? Then we are looking for you

TU Delft operates its own data centres and its own campus network. Deliberately. As a scientific institution, we believe that maintaining control over our digital infrastructure is not a matter of cost, but an essential prerequisite. You make sure that this infrastructure is not managed manually, but controlled through code.

Job description

You will work on one of the largest and most distinctive IT environments in the Netherlands. More than 40,000 researchers, students and staff rely on it every day. Behind this environment is not a standard catalogue of services, but a campus network that simultaneously supports lecture halls, laboratories, quantum research and high-performance computing — all from data centres that we own and operate ourselves.

We are transforming this environment from manual operations to code. Not as a project with an end date, but as a way of working.



Infrastructure as Code (IaC) is the standard, not the ambition. Everything goes through Git, everything is peer-reviewed, and what we build moves into production quickly so that we can learn from real feedback rather than assumptions.

Your work is at the heart of this transformation. You automate the deployment, configuration and registration of our data centre, network and platform services using tools such as Ansible, Terraform, NetBox, GitLab CI and Python. You help build the internal platform that enables other teams within the ICT Directorate to securely consume standardised infrastructure services themselves, rather than submitting a ticket and waiting.

What you will work on

Depending on your interests and strengths, your work will focus on areas including:

I. Establishing a reliable source of truth
